How do you know it was btrfs, are you living in my walls?!
Well, jokes aside, it was a power outage. In my defense, I’ve survived dozens of power outages while using btrfs with almost no negative consequences!

I mean, it sounds both tempting and terrifying at the same time, but even assuming it’s a good idea, how to reproduce my data, then? Not just the data per se, but all these volatile stuff in /var and $XDG_{CONFIG,DATA,STATE}_HOME as well. I like the idea of being able to (re)produce the entire system from a tiny “seed”, but my system is still not the same without those parts, as it will behave slightly differently. So I still have to backup all my data, haven’t I?
Also, using different partitions might be less fragile, but also much less convenient in terms of free space management, especially when you only have a single medium-sized SSD. So I just use a single rootfs (with subvolumes instead of partitions) for the system and all kind of data.
We have to stay strong regardless, as we always been!
And I was trying to say that might be the whole reason why they still don’t get cursed, as their souls must be gone. At least it feels like that for me!
I’d say that the mighty of this world most likely aren’t demons themselves, but rather possessed by some malicious (or just slightly insane) spirits. However, some of them might’ve signed a pact with otherworldly forces beyond their comprehension. The oldest trick in the book: they’ve obtained an immense power, indeed. But pledged their soul in return…





In other words: tsuki ga kirei!
Sounds like what Borg (with Borgmatic) can handle! Or maybe Restic.
