De Morgan didn't just do laws. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Siphonaptera_(poem) > So how do I take a full backup once a month as I've been doing for the > last ten years? See if https://wiki.gnome.org/Apps/DejaDup/HowItWorks#Deleting_Old_Backups makes sense. There's also https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_backup_software and https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_backup_software if you're looking for other candidates.
