Seems silly to carry a protective phone case but no phone.

Yeah, a lot of people leave their phone out of the EDC because they use it to take the picture.

The case is a good stand-in.

Ventoy sounds very interesting, will give it a try.

How do you manage to have the personal data usb synced? How often do you sync it?

I like the idea of having my files always handy on a USB.

The drive is LUKS encrypted. It is an option when formatting the drive using Gnome Disks in Linux.

Whenever you plug it in, it asks for the password.

On the drive I have a bash script that syncs my home directory to a folder on the drive using rsync.

I don’t create new files personal files very often and they are backed up in other ways too (to a NAS and also encrypted and uploaded to cloud storage) so I tend to only run the sync script about every other week or so.

I have a separate script and folder to backup my work laptop as well. for the work laptop I back my home directory and the /etc directory, because I have some customized configurations in etc. I run this every week.

Because the drives are USB C I can plug them into my phone for transferring files. The encrypted drive can be mounted using an app called ZUGate.

encrypted and uploaded to cloud storage

would you mind sharing your bash script for this, had dreamed of exploiting the 1G of free storage you get on every other corner.

I have a script that does an unencrypted backup to my true truenas machine.

Truenas has built in functionality to upload encrypted or unencrypted backups to various cloud providers. It is using rclone on the back end but it also handles the connection to your cloud storage really nicely too.
