When I can’t wrap my head around a technical document or journal article, I print it. My brain craves paper. I’m a software engineer, so believe me that I would be live inside the computer if I could.
I’ve heard cybersec guys say they print off things like recovery codes and keep the physical copy stored. Also, entire governments still run on pen and paper (shitty inefficient governments).

And every citizen that’s living in this city
Is a digit on the charts we’re climbing
Political systems are too inefficient
They split like the atom and burned in the fission
Now every department and every decision
Defer to the herds of our corporate divisions

shitty inefficient governments are probably better than otherwise
Hard copies. You should always keep hardcopies of your most important documents, financial records and certifications. Especially when users can be locked out of a cloud storage these days because an AI decided to flag their account.
Jesus invented thumbdrives and HDDs SSDs etc for this very reason, the cloud is just my offsite back up of that… having been kicked off “the cloud” by MS some years ago, fcuk those guys.

Maybe that’s just my age🤔

Fair, but a string I can still write by hand😂

😁i have my own cloud
Same. But I still keep critical paper work in a fireproof safe, just in case.

I recently learned that SSDs do not reliably store data for long amounts of time when unpowered.
