Silly me... (Hypocritical me...)

I soooo do not need this... I am, like all too many, not very assiduous in backing up my personal data at home (though I do -- occasionally and irregularly -- back up the "important stuff" like e-mail, bank records and bookmarks, etc to a usb-stick &/or my other computer. And when I get a new hard-drive, the old drive becomes my "back-up".). Arrant hypocrite that I am, I make anyone I help more than a couple of times with their Windows box sit through a lesson in "How To Back Up Your Data" (and point out how little I may be able to do to rescue their data if they don't bother). So I really like to have multiple copies of anything important on on my system on different drives and partitions. And I prefer it that way. De-duplicate my data? Horror! Yes, I know I'm not supposed to do it that way. When I used Windows I was much more careful about such things -- so I blame Linux's reliability for making me lazy ;-P Yeah, that's it -- it's Linux's fault... |
