Well Ukraine may not be a population of Nazis. But Russia, if it walks like a Nazi and talks like a Nazi and kills like a nazi .........Russians are fucking Nazis. Not just Putin, but every fucking Russian who does not fight Stalin redux.
That computer of yours went into save itself mode. Could not take one more fiery missive from TC. Hair on fire moment. It’s good to have savvy tech people saving the day.
Welcome back.
I despise Putin. And only could watch F News bloated Hannity shooting off his pie hole for 47 seconds yesterday before throwing something at TV.
I fear that Zelensky will be killed or imprisoned. Blood runs cold.
There are two primary types of storage in use for computers these days. One uses "flash" memory that has no moving parts (solid state drive) and the other uses a magnetic platter on which the data is stored (hard disk drive). SSDs are more expensive but less failure prone than the older tech with the spinning platter. A 500 GB SSD is probably $100 retail these days. A similar size HDD can be had for half that cost.
Get yourself a cloud storage account, please. You should be able to store a backup copy of everything you have ever written in your life for free. Relatively secure and I haven't lost a single word I've written in 15 years. I use a three-tiered backup strategy. Original file, local backup, and offsite backup.
з поверненням!
Appropriate for this week. :-)
I’m just guessing what that means, but I think I like it.
'Welcome back!' in Ukrainian, MaryB. You guessed correctly, didn't you!
Okay Fern. Translation please!

Exactly right

Whew! I was a bit concerned.
O course! When they pass the cookies, I always take one.
Glad to hear it is nothing more serious than a cranky computer. It had been a hell of a week! Can’t wait to to hear your view of world events.
Is the new drive an SSD?
Being a computer semi-illiterate, I have to confess I have no idea what that is. Please educate me.

I suspect with my computer's age, and the fact that the whole thing came to $150, that I have an HDD.

Where do you go to get one of those?

I was wondering where you had gone. Welcome back!
Glad you're back!

such a popular program he presented. Not!
Senator Voldemort at it again.
I trust you have a cloud storage multi-tiered backup strategy in place?
