Boob O’Clock

That may have adult uses as well

If anyone is after a non vibe coded version, there’s

https://github.com/babybuddy/babybuddy

With all the same features and home assistant integration. So my wife can click a button on a zwave remote (that stays in the pocket of her nursing pillow) to log the feeding without having to find her phone.

+1 on babybuddy, I’ve only good things to say about it and its community. Also, it’s a Django app, so the bar to tweak it exactly the way you want is very very low.

That home server thing is very expensive. I know it’s ECC, but that’s a lot for 16gb ram and no GPU.

I am looking for a NAS I can drop some existing WD Red drives into but that’s a lot. They came in a WD MyCloud but that’s thing is a privacy risk and is dog slow despite being hooked directly into a gigabit port.

rareese.com/posts/backblaze

Backblaze quietly stopped backing up .git, mounted remote storage and maybe more without showing the user what they’ve stopped backing up?

Dread it. Run from it. Enshitification arrives all the same.

Backblaze quietly stopped backing up OneDrive and Dropbox folders

The article doesn’t really say if the OneDrive or DropBoxe folders were on the physical drive that was being backed up. Backblaze has a restriction on how the backup operates. The drives must be physically connected to the computer being backed up. I have no experience with backing up Git but to date, all my back ups are what they should be. I know there is software that ‘tricks’ BackBlaze into thinking NAS drives are connected, but not sure what the actual names of the software are.

all my back ups are what they should be

Are you sure? While the cloud backups may not affect you the exclusions might, afaict no one even knows what exactly is excluded.

From the link:

This annoyed me. Firstly I needed that folder and Backblaze had let me down. Secondly within the Backblaze preferences I could find no way to re-enable this. In fact looking at the list of exclusions I could find no mention of .git whatsoever.

Which strongly implies that there might be other important folders that aren’t backed up. (Without .git inside a git folder it is no longer a git repository)

I don’t use backblaze but from the outside it looks like they’re cutting costs by worsening the backups to reduce storage usage.
