I'm not a systemd fan, so they wouldn't help me, but thanks for |
| 7 |
offering. |

My priorities are different, and there are constraints resulting from my |
| 10 |
priorities as well as others. |

I am mostly worried about physical catastrophic damage (I live in |
| 13 |
earthquake country) and losing my personal data, which could not be |
| 14 |
recreated. So it has to be offsite, and because it's personal data it |
| 15 |
has to be encrypted. And I cannot make the trip to where it's stored |
| 16 |
every day. |

Given the time (including the trip) it takes to restore, I don't see the |
| 19 |
point of backing up static files which can be reinstalled from the |
| 20 |
distribution. Of course, I'm still learning gentoo and so it was easy |
| 21 |
for me to make the mistake of forgetting that files under /usr/portage |
| 22 |
aren't really in that catagory. |
