I’m not irresponsible, just poor
I’ve been burned before by lack of backups.
Everybody has.
I’m more disciplined now. I back up everything.
Everything I can afford to.
My hugeish drive just died. It was first reported as failed reads. Then, a corrupt superblock. Now the IDE controller won’t even recognize it. I would have backed it up if I could afford another drive of equal or greater capacity.
Motherfucking son of a syphilitic whore.
All my ripped music (500 CDs), my stamp catalogues, my audiobooks (including the one I’m in the middle of), and my backups of all my other drives, including ones I don’t even have any longer.
Solid. State. Drives. Now.
