my hyperactive brain: what I'm hearing is we need to investigate using zfs snapshots, set up a custom rsync script to offload old files to a NAS, and then write a cron job to periodically clean up orphaned packages and old log files.

And of course a chatbot:

"Hey, I'm Travis. Your AI Assistant"

"The accuracy of the information cannot be guaranteed and should be separately reviewed and verified by a human."

This follows up an announcement the French/German governments are developing an open-source Notion clone (it's called Docs).

Europe is making a move toward digital sovereignty and it may coincidentally result in a tech stack with properties I want (AI-free, OSS, Linux-compatible). Hm.
