I’m usually good with keeping backups, to the point that I make backups of backups. Wouldn’t you know, the one time I didn’t have a backup is when the drive dies, and not in a way that I can still salvage some data.

A lot of what was on the drive was old stuff, created on a computer that is long gone. A chunk of the files were of my writing, photography, as well as saved images I would use for drawing. Maybe some of my digital only drawings are gone, too. I also lost saved fics - not just my own, but others I saved to reread.

Maybe it is time to reduce my own footprint in this world.

Remember, the meaning of life is 42.

Ha! Haven’t posted anything in a while! Happy New Year!

Just upgraded a sluggish 2009 Macbook. No Pro around here, this was a refurbished little white laptop with a 160 5400-rpm hard drive. It’s hard finding RAM upgrades, so it’s stuck at 4gb. I did get a little tool thingy from iFixit. I upgraded the drive to a SSD Sata drive. It’s marginally higher, but much faster opening programs or even websites.

This is where I am the most relaxed, tinkering in computer hardware.
