Very detailed loading screens tho

As a norwegian who is back to pirating after a break of around 10-12 years, it is not primarily a cost issue. Hell with hardware investments it is costing me more tho that includes stuff for gaming (roms, i currently dont pirate pc games).

What it is is a service issue. Self curated collection of movies and shows beats the fragmented shit that is current streaming platforms not to mention the flood of utter garbage on tgese platforms you have to sift thru to find somethinf worth watching. Not to mention the privacy aspects and in general the "ownership" model (ie licensing without really knowing the terms).

Fuck that shit and im never getting fooled again.

Yea i dug up the old mario and zelda big band album (from around 2000 i think) some time ago, its prerty dope

Thats pretty cool, never heard of those kinds of tapes. Im at somewhere between 5-10 TB myself. The cheapest storage units ive seen is about $90/month here so that would be a bit expensive, but there might be some smaller ones for item storage that i dont know about.

ah rotating the drives can is a smart solution, that could be an option.

ah good to know. hopefully will not need the recovery but if i do i would like to avoid paying thousands, because then the idea of spending money to save time in case of emergency doesnt really work anymore

My impressions is that such fireproof safes are only fireproof for so long?

i have been planning on getting on though so could perhaps store the original local copy there for additional safety. depends on the space tho

At $12/terabyte/month it seems pretty expensive for media collection (I mean: family photos are irreplaceable but generic video?)

It is the value of my time i am concerned about not the files themselves. But i can see that there are cheaper options

Other options are to use “glacier” tier S3 which is cheap to rent but ultra expensive to recover (but hopefully you won’t need that)

Ill check that out :)

Or just put a pi+HDD hidden somewhere at work/parents and copy to that

This could be an option but a little cumbersome to keep updated perhaps?

im not sure you can make tech that light

perfect, thanks a lot!!!

Ok thanks i will look into B2 (is that just shorthand for backblaze or is it something in particular?)

I asked below here as well so no need to answer multiple times, but will restic encrypt when transferring or does it require that i can store the entire encrypted archive locally as well? or is that just borg?

thanks, thats very helpful!

One (maybe stupid) question - since restic encrypts, does it do this in transfer or would i need to have additional space on my local hard drives for the encrypted archive?

edit: got an answer to this above: does not require intermediate storage! :)
