Balendukht

Balendukht or Balendokht (Georgian: ბალენდუხტი) was a Sasanian princess and Queen of Iberia. She was the daughter of Sasanian shah (king) Hormizd III. During her youth, she married Vakhtang I, the ruler of Iberia, with whom she had one child named Dachi. Balendukht, however, died of childbirth when the latter and his twin-sister were born. The etymology of the name is unclear. It may have been a corrupted from *Šāhēnduxt.[1]

gollark: zpaq is very nice but not updated any more so I don't trust it to not be broken.
gollark: TAR is bad then. Or .tar.gz etc.
gollark: Well, I realized that ZIP did basically the same thing a while ago, but TARs are annoying as they don't support random access.
gollark: Right now I think I have a combination of just `rsync`ing entire folders to a disk for big incompressible stuff, which is suboptimal, and sqlars for other things, but none of this is actually incremental backup capable, which is bee.
gollark: I might actually implement a simpler version of the same concept (no deduplication) so that I can finally have good sensible to use backups.
