Why use Gogs when you could use Forgejo or Gitea?

GrapheneOS is constantly being showboated by Ed Snowden which is a red flag and I did experience app contamination on it.
Can you elaborate on that or link to any information on this?
You're now on at least one watchlist for knowing what puts you on a watchlist.
eh, i didnt mention any offline hardware
Sorry if my comment came over as criticising your approach, I just wanted to add that information if someone wanted to use it. What I wanted to say is: if you have a NAS, you need to have reliable cold storage which is not SSDs.
12 drives in the go bag seems a bit much, as I don't think the weight to usefulness ratio would be great if you really needed to leave the house in an emergency.
Breakage can be mitigated by root FS snapshots, e.g. with snapper.
Sure, if you want to send your CLI input to the cloud. What can go wrong?
Installing Arch manually will teach you a lot of those things. Just do not use archinstall.
Contrary to what people suggested, I would advise against optical discs or tapes and would go with HDDs you check every few months. They don't rot like optical media, the only thing you have to worry about are the motor spindles getting stuck and other mechanical failures.
It will also be the cheapest option. With tapes you need expensive drives and they change the version every few years. Tapes only are better if you store hundreds or thousands of TiB of data.
Which data so you want to save? Mostly games and media? If so, consider giving them to your friends and family to copy and enjoy, which some people call a 'friend backup'.
SSDs need to be powered periodically to not lose bits to the cells losing trapped electrons. For offline storage HDDs are a better option.
Always burn data at lower speeds too, less errors.
Doesn't help the fact that the discs degrade over time.
and NVTop shows on which GPU the process is situated, which is invaluable if you have multiple GPUs.
For me a single 2TB 2.5 inch external HDD in a shockproof case and a 1TB SSD contain all of my most important data (mostly scanned documents and personal media like photos, phone backups and letters). I have a Syncthing folder which syncs to my phone and is mirrored to the SSD once a week, while the HDD is used as a restic target. I don't want to lug around 3kg of disks when my house is on fire, war breaks out or an axe murderer chases me.
