This looks like a pretty good deal on a spacious, seemingly solid little backup unit. One of these and a little more native capacity (which I keep meaning to pick up) to cover normal wear-and-tear failure, and I think a person could be pretty well set for data reliability.

Posted April 19, 2012 By Landis VI still don’t believe this agency should exist. I have nothing against the employees themselves, and I understand the need for jobs. But jobs without a purpose are no good. I do find these articles and approaches interesting, because it will make it just that much harder to find people willing to take these jobs. And eventually, if nobody’s willing to do the job, it’s going to resolve itself (… or they’ll start stealing even more of our money to pay higher wages; wouldn’t put that past a government that determined the TSA should exist in the first place). I’d rather take my chances with terrorists than take my chances losing more freedoms to an already-too-large government.

I have roughly conjectured on this at times. I find it all too feasible. As the individual who linked to the above page noted in their comment, “The world is full. Further economic growth is neither possible nor desirable. “
The relatively short duration of individual existence
Posted March 29, 2012 By Landis VAs I returned from taking out my trash this evening and looked upon some of my possessions, it struck me in an unusual way that a “me” 50 years into the future might look upon those same and similar structures in reflection rather than anticipation. It was difficult to comprehend. Is it just me, or does everyone do this?
- I'm in the fourth decade, and I have vastly more possessions than I would probably have anticipated. I find that…
- I actually think of that pretty regularly. I am currently in the third decade of my life and have been…
