Did you know that it is International Back-Up Day?
But don't worry! If you haven't made back-ups of your data, it is still protected by "Meh, what's the worse that could happen?", "It'll be fine" and most importantly: "I'll do it tomorrow!"

@ArmouredWizard@dice.camp Where was this two days ago when I needed it? :blobfoxlul: I need to get my LTO tape drive situation settled first, but disk to disk is suitable for the time being.

@ArmouredWizard@dice.camp Ugh. Thanks for reminding me. Seriously. I'm way behind.

@ArmouredWizard@dice.camp And remember, if you haven't successfully practiced doing a restore, then your backups probably don't work.
