Adding to that that you can also easily make a separate WiFi network (tied to a vlan even) for IoT. OpenWRT makes this very easy.

It really depends how you define reliability. SD cards are physically nigh indestructible, but can show failure when overwritten often. Hence for one off backups it's actually a good alternative. It will start showing problems when used as a medium that often writes and overwrites the same data often.
I would recommend backups on SD cards in an A/B fashion when you want to give a backup to someone else to store safely.
Back in the day I bought a fridge freezer combo, second hand, no handles. Used to be a built in model. As handles I used two magnets from full height drives, they were ludicrously strong and shaped like a little bit like a handle.
Full height drives were 3.25" high for those who are wondering.
One logs into the VM and starts checking the files of course. Go from there.
Curious, you might want to look into what's generating your data first. It's easy to generate data, it's harder to only keep the data that's useful.

I"d argue along that division in a democracy only is a strength if there's enough division to warrant coalition. Without enough division it can become an us versus them game with neither side willing to find common ground.
Consider running HA in a light weight systemd-nspawn container with minimal debian. No docker, only install the repositories you need. HACS if needed. Run your own database on the side somewhere and let HA use it.
By itself HA is fairly lightweight already.
I've baked eggs on stainless for a while, best advice I have is to get the eggs out of the fridge like 15 mins before you bake them. That way the temperature difference is less when they hit the pan. The same goes for baking eggs in any other type of pan.
Fish, now that takes practice and patience.
Years ago I flew transatlantic and just before landing I got up and brushed my teeth with a tiny travel set. I still remember all the people looking at me with my toothpaste and brush in hand thinking "why didn't I think of that?"
