… Death Sentence? My PC is hospitalized

 


Hello, how are you?

Me? … My PC is in the end “hospitalized.”

The person at the desk told me, “We look after your machine for … say, 3-4 weeks, depending on the seriousness in data retrieval. I’m afraid we cannot guarantee 100% sure result. If it is OK for your with this condition, could you please sign here, and your address, (Blah, Blah, Blah …)”

After leaving my Topy 5 (I’m calling my machine of each generation in this way; the current one is of the 5th generation), I felt I was hearing the possibility of death sentence. My graphics data, accumulated for some time and became more than 2TB, could be gone … On my way home, I kept crossing my fingers in honest …

The only thing I can do now is Starting New.

Lemonade: From now on, I never leave my data without backup.

A broken shell of an egg for Zitting Cisticola,
found near the flood plain of Yadoriki Stream.

According to Prof. Keisuke Ueda, the Chairman for the Wild Bird Society of Japan, Zitting Cisticola, Cisticola juncidis, has 1:1 population ratio of its gender, but they construct harem, er nay, “free love” with 10-11 partners. They mate casually whichever individual of opposite sex they meet, and aim for increasing the probability of procreation. Lessons learned: Save data in many places to play it safe. Birds are clever.

It’s still deadly hot and humid in Yokohama. I hope you’re fine in you place.
