Setting up Time Machine Backups Using Proxmox (v8.2) and Ubuntu (24.04)

This guide assumes you already have a basic Ubuntu 24.04 VM running on Proxmox. If not, you should set that up first. The VM can be fairly minimal; for example, 8GB of storage and 1GB of RAM should suffice.

It also assumes you have a USB Storage device that you want to use for Time Machine backups

Mapping a USB Drive to the Ubuntu VM Using Virtio in Proxmox

Mapping a USB drive via the Proxmox GUI is quick and easy, but the performance may be suboptimal because the driver is emulated. For better performance, it's recommended to use the virtio driver, which is paravirtualized. Paravirtualization allows the guest VM to interact more directly with the hardware, improving I/O performance compared to emulated devices.

Easy Access to Currently Opened Folders

Windows Enhancement Productivity AutoHotkey v2

Enhance Open... or Save As... dialogs with a quick way to navigate to currently opened folders.

This is an AutoHotkey v2 script that gives common file selection dialogs an extra feature: middle-clicking invokes a menu of currently opened folders. Say you want to save or upload something to/from a folder you've got open in Windows Explorer. The dialog box pops up with the last folder (from another project) or My Documents, and now you have to manually navigate to the folder you want, or copy-paste its path from the open Explorer window. I wanted to get to the active locations quicker. Recent Items wasn't exactly helping, so I made this by forking [FavoriteFolders.
