In your case, go visit Wiz once a month and exchange an external drive every time you go to visit him.
Nice try, but if Brian and I saw each other too frequently, we'd become like an old married couple. Saw him and Te for an hour and a half last Monday on their way back from Brisbane, and we had a great time.

I have read the article, hit the Whack-A-Mole for 4, and quite agreed with the principles. Only reason I did not give it a 5 is that I believe you are talking more about
engineering redundancy (3 components have to fail before the system fails), rather than a
Recovery Strategy
... which I feel is much more important.
Timeshift is not a backup solution, and its author Tony George has made that quite clear. It is, rather, an integral part of a Recovery Strategy, and it is a Recovery Possibility (not a sole solution) for being able to restore your system, or even to replace your computer.
I can go on with this elsewhere, with something like "How Does Wizard Safeguard His Essential Data and Systems?" rather than derail this Thread, if there is interest, put a Like on this Post. It will only take about 3 Likes for me to start one.
That would be 3 people I can help to understand why over the last 8 years, 3 months and 2 weeks I have not lost one photograph, one important document, one bookmark, one setting and so on, that was important to me.
It will explain what happens with a lightning strike, a fire, a flood or other Act of God, hardware breakdowns, software breakdowns, and so on.
And, of course, human error.
