  • I have two machines that back up to a local server using Borg. That whole server in turn backs up to Jottacloud using restic with encryption enabled.

    By the way, I wouldn’t use rclone for backups. Use restic or something similar that does incremental backups. Because if you do rclone and then later discover that some files were corrupted locally, then your files are gone. With incremental backups you would still be able to retrieve them.

    Oh, or do you mean backing up the stuff that is on the cloud?


  • I have an AKASO Brave 7LE. I just take out the SD card and put it in an USB reader that I plug into my home server to move the videos. Then I just use my desktop for editing with Kdenlive which has a defish filter for getting rid of the camera distortion these actioncams have.

    It’s also possible to connect to the camera through WiFi, but it’s much slower than using the SD card reader.

    Regarding firmware updates, I don’t think AKASO is really into that but at some point I had an issue and support sent me a file that you just put on the SD card and the camera does the rest.

    I use Edge daily for work. Everything it Office 365 and there is of course no Outlook client or Word or whatever on Linux. So I use the web version for everything. So I might as well have Edge to do the Microsoft since surely MS must make sure their stuff works on their own browser, right? (right??).

    I also use the PWA version of Teams since the native client doesn’t really work well and since somewhat recently is also “officially” unsupported.

    Anyway, it keeps the MS stuff separate from my normal browsing with Firefox and I’ve disabled JavaScript in Edge for all non-MS stuff. It works pretty well. Took me some battles to get rid of the Bing sidebar but they finally made that an option you can set.
