I was a tech for a long time, constantly hounding clients to back up their data. At home I had three 10tb duplicates.
Fast forward to 2026, guess who hasn't done a backup in two years and had to save their own lifetime of data from a single clicking drive recently. 🥺
why am i like this
-backing oneself up really ought to be a function of the chip somehow
-some days I wish the mess would all be lost, but then I'm not sure what would be left of me
i often think i'd probably give up self-hosting if i lost it all. but then i remember how i got here, and think, actually, i could probably set up most of the critical stuff again in a weekend.
in the meantime. i should curate some photos and store them separately.
