Overcast +28°F
I feel much better today, after having a headache and achiness for the past couple of days. Maybe I'll actually get something done.

I've been using a simple
rsync
command for keeping a remote backup of some of my important folders. This gives me a snapshot from whenever the command was last run, but doesn't include any history or encryption. I thought it was time to improve this, so I configured Arq to do it for me. It's probably an unnecessary step, since much of this is synced to iCloud and everything is backed up via local Time Machine and remote Backblaze backups, but you know, belts and braces and all that, right? -
