Re: and
Personally I would far rather always keep my "shit" on various external hard drives than in a cloud.
If someone breaks into my house and manages to extract anything of any use off those drives, well,
frankly, they deserve it after the effort it will involve.
AND . . .
or perhaps '&&&', my code is such basic stuff that it might just send LiveCode into an infinite loop;
but nothing that a KILL signal won't sort out.

Re: and
For others: having a cloud backup in addition to your series of local backups provides protection from fires and natural disasters that local backups alone cannot address.

Re: and
That's a great also. I have all my work files, email archives, and SSH keys on an encrypted thumb drive updated with each backup, taken with me nearly anytime I leave the house.richmond62 wrote: ↑Thu Jul 22, 2021 5:55 pmAlways carry an external backup drive around with you in your handbag . . .For others
Storage is cheap. Redundancy of type is almost as important as redundancy of number.

Re: and
Local drives can be a useful part of a complete backup breakfast - as long as they're plural.

Re: and
Unless of course the 'cloud' evaporates.Once you’ve had physical drives fail on u it’s a no-brainer…

AND, while I have little problem visualising fairies at the bottom of the garden,
I do have that problem with the 'cloud'.
Oh, And: https://www.bbc.com/news/technology-57929544
Ultimately there is no no-risk solution.

Back on topic on the topic of &&:
Imagine a world in which this ChromeOS migrant moment was a blog post at LC contrasting the millions of hours lost every year to languages that have very different meanings for single vs double operators, noting that LC distinguishes such operations with common and easily-learned words, and the post was shared through a well-coordinated social media syndication.
Stam, it seemed that was the sort of thing you were asking for in another thread.
It's cost-effective (1 to 2 hrs payroll max), which is why content strategy is a key component of nearly every successful company's marketing.

Re: and
To beat a dead horse, I love my Chromebook. When I'm not at my desk it's my device of choice. When you get one, you know the tradeoff for cloud storage -- it's one of the most secure operating systems available. If anything shows up in its routine system scan, the OS is replaced with a clean version automatically, which takes only a couple of minutes. It's wicked fast and very lightweight. You do have personal storage that is not backed up to the cloud, which you are responsible for, but everything else is cloud based which means all your data can be accessed from any device including a friend's Chromebook when you sign in with your credentials in guest mode.
The recent glitch was widely discussed on all Android and Chrome data channels, but even if you were actually affected (I wasn't) there were 3 ways to work around it, none of them very difficult. The fix was released in a day.
In spite of the distrust of Google's data collection behaviors (which you can delete, turn off, or avoid entirely) I think Google and Android are the new Apple in terms of innovation and user experience.
Hope I didn't start a platform war. I'm just enthusiastic about Chrome OS.

Heh. It's actually a single link in Settings, but that's not as funny.
