What do you use to back up local files from Linux to external hard drive?
I have been using rsnapshot, but maybe there are better solutions out there?
Does anyone have an experience with btrfs and snapshots? Do you trust it?

I'm once again asking for some to solve a philosophical dilemma.

When cutting wood on a bandsaw with a fence, which side of the board is better to keep against the fence, the narrower or the wider (assuming both sides can pass through the saw throat)?

I usually keep the wider against the fence, but I don't know if it's the best practice (I push the piece against the fence not farther than the blade, or it will pinch it, of course).

I think this can be applied to table saws, too.

@GustavinoBevilacqua Keep in mind that table saws and band saws produce very different forces.
It can be quite dangerous to have a thin strip between the blade of a table saw and the fence.
