Diary - May 16 to May 22 2020

Sat May 16 2020

Sleep 05:30 to 10:30.

  • I decided to move my TM backups to my Drobo. On the plus, backups should be faster and won't hog the network. On the negative, I usually leave my Drobo off so I'll probably do one backup a night and miss the hourlies.
  • Drobo has Time Machine support. Click Backup button, specify size (I did 5 TB), and it creates a volume for Time Machine, though I suppose you can also use the main volume except Time Machine doesn't restrict it's HD usage. Since I made it 5 TB I'm also letting it backup everything.

Sleep 05:30 to 13:00.

  • Now that BotezLive does collaborations with popular streamers the chat is full of meme-ers. It's a byproduct of popularity; I may not like it but understand it's part of it.

Mon May 18 2020

Sleep 03:00 to 09:00. 12:00 to 14:00.

  • Checked after a month or so and there is more water pooling in my fridge. Seems to be condensation and I guess the water output is blocked. It's not too bad so probably will just manually mop it up every month or three.

Tue May 19 2020

Sleep 04:00 to 10:00.

  • Tío Jaime died this morning. Heart attack. I think mid 70's and suffering from (Alzheimer's?).

Wed May 20 2020

Sleep 05:30 to 13:30.

  • I did Time Machine encrypted backup and it kind of sucks. It's constantly re-encrypting the entire backup which takes forever and really slows down the Drobo. Guess I'll have to risk unencrypted backup.

Thu May 21 2020

Sleep 03:00 to 09:00.

  • Saw an ad encouraging adopting kids from group homes to save them from COVID-19. Wow.

Fri May 22 2020
Sleep 03:30 to 09:30. 13:15 to 15:00.

  • Took the day off cause work is stressing me out.
