Hey man, are you ok? Do you want to talk about anything?

Well boy are you alive at the right time!

Much more reasonable, good for you!

What are your specs?

Bottom line, there’s always a possibility a cloud/service provider could lose you data. That chance is (/should be) exponentially smaller on their environments however than the likelihood of your own local stores.

If you’re really serious about preserving your data, consider the 3-2-1 Backup Rule:

3 copies of your data 2 different types of media 1 copy stored off-site

Florida here. They have adequate coverage, but there are caps in some extra options or high-end tell estate. The bigger issue is that all the other instance agencies are pulling out of the state so Citizens (the state insurance) is having to cover more and more to the point that the state is just one direct hurricane hit away from insolvency.

UDP: meh

Not who you’re replying to but yes, Synology will let you automate backups to a cloud/service (and you definitely should!)

If I say “no,” does that mean yes?

Chicken dinrar?

I dunno, he doesn’t seem half bad - particularly when you look at the mooks currently in the lineup.

Probably fired em. When you have more money than nearly the rest of the world combined, you don’t need to keep track of things like “finances” and “books”.

(serious) could you expound on what you mean by this?

So how screwed are we? Obviously this isn’t good, but I don’t think it’s going to stop here - and at least in the US it doesn’t seem like the political landscape is going to change any time soon. So is this bad enough for people to start having to do something like move away from the equator? Or are we approaching a legit “move to Mars” scenario?
