Are you backing up files from the FS or sre you backing up the snapshots? I had a corrupted journal from a power outage that borked my install. Could not get to the snapshots on boot. Booted into a live disk and recovered the snapshot that way. Would’ve taken hours to restore from a standard backup, however it was minutes restoring the snapshot.

If you’re not backing up BTRFS snapshots and just backing up files you’re better off just using ext4.

Do you rely on snapshotting and journaling? If so backup your snapshots.

The trains did not in fact run on time.

Absolutely, Robber Barons have been a thing since the rails were laid. It’s a shit system and the main reason we don’t have highspeed rail.

This kid just got 10k for saying rail infrastructure is failing due to a lack of maintenance. Specifically the springs at junctions. The main failing here in the US though is that rail maintenance falls to rail companies that have little financial incentive to spend the money on safety. That may be changing, however if the federal government just hands over money with inadequate oversight it will just enrich the companies.
