I will second this. My wife and I tried all the instant coffees on some review site and one of the mid priced ones was surprisingly good. Originally it was for camping, but it was so smooth and didn’t upset our middle-aged stomachs after we drank a lot of it, so now we drink it all the time.

Disk block cryptographic signatures with automatic recovery?
Is this why people run Arch instead or atomic linux distros?
Or even, “fuck your privilege “! Unless my wife wants to paint holding the brush in her mouth don’t kick her in the expression. You want royalties for artist or advance optin for model training I’m with you.
Edit:Didn’t realize the community I was in. Sorry all.
These seem like semantics to me. Saying it isn’t a backup, when it successfully restored my uncle’s 25 years of files after his hard drive failed, doesn’t ring true to me. OneDrive allows recovery of data from ransomware, common user error like deleting or overwriting files, drive failure and catastrophe like fire. What use cases does this backup methodology lack for you that is important for casual end users?
Personally, I architected datacenter backups for a large company with business critical data. This was a decade ago, but even then I was responsible for architecting logical, physical, application, database, snapshot, tape and site replication for about a petabyte of data (hard drives used to be small). When you say that some of those things are not backup, I don’t understand why you think that? Different types of backups have different strengths, weaknesses and use cases.
You can roll your onedrive back to a previous point in time in the event of a ransomware, technical issue or user mistake that causes issue.
OneDrive does not do full disk synchronization to my knowledge.
OneDrive is a decent solution for non-techies who need a backup system. I’ve installed it for octogenarians who certainly would never backup anything on their own. It does versioning on the files, so it can protect against ransomware and provide fallback to earlier versions.
Whenever I am remotely helping one of the people I have it setup for, I glance at the icon to see if it is working. Occasionally, I see it complaining about a single file not syncing for some reason, but that generally will resolve itself by the next time I check.
It has a vault that requires additional authentication for your most sensitive files.
I like it—I’m sure its not perfect, but it isn’t terrible.
It’s such a game changer!
I had the pleasure of working with 8” floppy drives with the Social Security Administration.
I hate that they renamed it on iOS but not Mac. Now my fingers can’t remember just one thing.
I often defuse like this by referring to my age. “My reflexes were great when I first started playing video games in the 1970s—now I am just slower and not much I can do about it.”
