    Manual: Every now and then I run an rsync script to backup my stuff to an external drive. Automated: I have SpiderOak set up the auto backup select folders. I have about 1 TB of of…

    Fitness and nutrition are those kinds of topics that no one ever agrees on. Everyone thinks their way is the "right" way, as exemplified by the enormous number of unique replies to…
