It's a backup. On the main machine there are two disks (fast & big and slow & smaller) not in raid, with a btrfs copy.
It would be quite an event to lose all three copies.

Remote storage (Pi at parents house with a big disk) and cron'ed btrfs send over ssh.
I do blame Google. It's their platform. They could mandate upstream kernels.
They could define auto discoverablity for their platform hardware. Then it would be possible for generic ROMs to boot on any Android phone.
These patents seam trivial obvious ones. Hope they get knocked down during the case.
Why does this call the problem by it's name, monopoly.
Android is another area Google are abusing their monopoly. Sure the phone market is a duopoly, but that doesn't help. Apple is even more locked down and user abusing.
Lots of app companies, like bank apps, think locking their apps to only work on official Android is best for security, but that compounds the monopoly. It's also arguably less secure!
It has many appliances and no doubt many names. But it's easy to work out on first principals. Without a system of enforced rules, ass holes take over and ruin it for everyone (including themselves). Places without law and order are a mess and normally end up with laws set by war/drug lord. Until they are murdered and the next one takes over.
I think it's also regulation and a legal system. Anarchy doesn't work. It's a Tragedy Of The Commons problem. It's always ruined by a few ass holes. The Commons need a mechanism to weed itself. I.e. Rules and enforcement of those rules.
Problem is Xitter is a centralized closed monopoly thing owned by a crazy near trillionaire. The Commons has no control of it. It's a diseased setup.
Kind of like salting.
Like the ice cubes in dad's drink before he get mad? ;-)
Not sure everyone here knows their Futurama.
I know, but there us as quiet war going on between the chippers and manufacturers. EV is a new battle front and we the consumers are losing right now.
Law makes need to join this century and get involved ensuring competition and longer product lives.
They DRM it all if we let them. We must not. It should going the other way. More open, repairable and upgradable.

They should be standard protocols and you should be able to change server to competition. Be great if it was all open, but failing that, standards, competition and right to repair.
