“the 1900s”

: /

I recently picked up a 2024 model moto g power 5g. The main reason is that I needed the cheapest smart phone I could find locally to test a new provider (phreeli) before committing. That, and to serve as a ready backup if one of ours dies. $115 at a big box store.

It’s… fine. Even after debloating I get about half the battery life of my galaxy s20 which is now 5 years old. I haven’t been able to figure out what’s eating it, or maybe it just has a smaller battery… I should check that.

Does borg need an entire python venv?

I was looking at “modern” backup tools while back and when I saw borg was python I decided not to bother.

Instead I focused on restic for a little while and then rsync was already there and I already knew the commands so… Rsync. Though I still have restic on my list.

I learn something new every day, thanks bud.

They’re not supposed to put chicken shit on the sandwich unless you specifically request it.
