Connect ESP32 to xiaomi Mijia-LYWSD03MMC without using HA
I want to do a little IOT project where I establish a MQQT-Broker on my Raspberry Pi and send it readings from my measurement devices (xiaomi Mijia-LYWSD03MMC). The plan is for these devices to connect to my ESP32, allowing me to transfer data to the broker on the Pi. I've successfully connected my ESP32 to my Wi-Fi and to my broker, but I'm experiencing significant difficulties in connecting it to my two measurement devices. I have essentially followed the instructions provided in this GitHub repository (https://github.com/atc1441/ATC_MiThermometer) as best as I could. I also checked some other repos but they didn't really help me as they were too big/complex...

Cheap WiFi temperature and humidity sensor
If you get off WiFi and on Bluetooth: https://github.com/atc1441/ATC_MiThermometer They last a year with a single CR2032 which is hard to do with WiFi.

Zero W and Enviro for boat monitoring project
I then copied this Python script to the Raspberry Pi 4 and was able to read the temperature and humidity! (https://github.com/atc1441/ATC_MiThermometer/tree/master/contrib/python)

How do you all monitor ambient temps for your drives? Cooking drives is no fun... I think I found a decent solution with these $12 Govee bluetooth thermometers and Home Assistant.

IT Room Temp Monitor
I use the Xiaomi (pronounced Show Me) Mi Temperature and Humidity monitors (version 2) and flash the firmware with a 'open source' version (here or the older one here). I've found battery life good (8 months + with the newer software on one sensor) and bar from one corrupt display (right next to an outdoor electricity feed - well the box is handy and dry) then they have just run and run and run.

feels like winter today....not touching the heating tho
The thermometers in screenshot are Xiaomi Thermometer LYWSD03MMC with ATC custom firmware. Their bluetooth broadcast data collected by some cheap chinese ESP32 board and ESPHome addon in Home Assistant.

Reminder to check your local Micro Center’s website daily. Not only did they have stock, but they’re $15 off MSRP
You can replace their firmware with one which is more open and broadcasts the values without needing to connect to the device: https://github.com/atc1441/ATC_MiThermometer

Duplicity
For starters it has a tendency to paint itself into a corner on ENOSPC situations. You won't even be able to perform a restore if a backup was started but unfinished because it ran out of space. There's this process of "regressing" the repo [0] which must occur before you can do practically anything after an interrupted/failed backup. What this actually must do is undo the partial forward progress, by performing what's effectively a restore of the files that got pushed into the future relative to the rest of the repository, which requires more space. Unless you have/can create free space to do these things, it can become wedged... and if it's a dedicated backup system where you've intentionally filled disks up with restore points, you can find yourself having to throw out backups just to make things functional again - even ability to restore is affected.
That's the most obvious glaring problem, beyond that it's just kind of garbage in terms of the amount of space and time it requires to perform restores. Especially restores of files having many reverse-differential increments leading back to the desired restore point. It can require 2X the file's size in spare space to assemble the desired version, while it iteratively reconstructs all the intermediate versions in arriving at the desired version. Unless someone fixed this since I last had to deal with it, which is possible.
Source: Ages ago I worked for a startup[1] that shipped a backup appliance originally implemented by contractors using rdiff-backup. Writing a replacement that didn't suck but was compatible with rdiff-backup's repos consumed several years of my life...
There are far better options in 2024.

Trying to install rdiff-backup on an Oracle Cloud Red Hat VM.
and that should install the latest version, rdiff-backup-2.2.4-2.el8.x86_64.rpm. This is all described in the rdiff-backup README file.

How do I copy data from one HDD to another using Linux Mint?
Rdiff-backup - close to what you do currently but at least provides versioning. Based on rsync

Accomplishing What I Want With What I Have
as in just a copy of your files? This I would barely consider a backup, more of just a mirror from a point in time. What're you missing by doing this? versions of files, deduplication, and encryption (last one being very important for the best kind of backups, which should be off-site). Just because it's not files doesn't mean it's proprietary. Proprietary would mean secret and undocumented. There are many great options. Borg is my favorite but Kopia is probably better if you use windows, urbackup is an option if you want centralized management of backups and rdiff-backup is if you want something kinda what you have currently but adding versioning but lacks deduplication and encryption.

Backup software recommendation
If you're comfortable with the cli and you want to have your backup in a plain file format with some incremental backups, there's rdiffbackup. It uses rsync under the hood and has worked quite well for me.

Name a program that doesn't get enough love!
Rdiff Backup - Reverse differential backups that uses rsync, linking, and can tunnel via ssh. You get a full current backup with increments available to restore any version of the file with minimal storage space used.

BorgBackup, Deduplicating archiver with compression and encryption
borg is great. we've been using it for the past 3 years to archive hundreds of file-level backups of servers, database dumps and VM images. average size of each borg repo is few GB but there are few outliers up to few hundreds of GB.
borg replaced https://rdiff-backup.net/ for us and gave:

Advice for Automated Copying of my Off Grid 6TB Media Hoard :)
Robocopy is great if you don't have access to rsync. If rsync via WSL2 for instance is an option, I'd personally go with rdiffbackup.
- Do incremental backups generally store only the delta of each file change or the entire new file?
