why don't you use cron to set up a backup script?

Yes, setup a cron job using pg_dump utility and in case you need incremental
backups PITR can serve the purpose....

Is "common sense" really valid?
For example, it is "common sense" to white-power racists that
whites are superior to blacks, and that those with brown skins
are mud people.
However, that "common sense" is obviously wrong.
