So if yall didn't know I'm also an all purpose computer tech geek and I end up fixing all my friends and families computers both MAc and PC... lately I've been fixing a lot of problems on Mac's with corrupt hard drives where either I have to reformat them or replace the drive... NOW today I have to go fix Endika's imac... it won't boot and I'm not sure if his data was backed up... i don't think it was... I shall see_eth..
So if your working on a big project be sure your ONE using a UPS...APC's are tite... a power conditioner/battery backup to regulate voltage so as to not fry your computers etc... I use one that was like $200....
Also you need to BACKUP and BACKUP some more... ask yourself how many days work can you afford to lose? and thAt will set your backup schedule... I can't afford to lose one days worth of work so I backup my shot files everyday... I backup up my renders and project files once a week... All of those files are on 3 different physical drives in 2 different physical locations... Most should be on external drives in case of aforementioned frying....
It only takes a few minutes to backup...now isn't that better than losing years of work? I'm putting two hard drives in a safe deposit box today... between the two with the WATS master and %80 of HSM thats about 7 years of my life... which I don't want too lose ^ ^
So if you don't have one start a backup strategy today!
And lets hope I can fix his computer without losing data!

Ok I really hope Endika's music stuff wasn't fried. That would be crappy for sure.
ReplyDeleteYa backing up is one of the smartest things you can do. I've had an old laptop get messed up twice and both times I lost all the stuff on my computer...I really miss that old junk too :/
Some of my older youtube videos aren't even on my computers any more...well I can get them back from youtube but yeh...
YouU aRe like Super professional, awesome filmaker, theres no such thing as being to safe
ReplyDeleteI like when everything burns and crashes
ReplyDeletebut only when that's not hard drives
I was reading a forum about a boy
who fried his hard drive..
and all forum was trying' to help him
he said:'I did ..I did.. nothing helps
Nothing helps me..Help'
whatever killed your first hard drive, is now killing your other hard drive and DVD drive!
the whole day he was looking for cmos jumper^ ^
then they said:" If we all were there i am sure we'd help u"
He said:"please help my mom is gonna kill me there r her pics"

ReplyDeleteHey Mdot, Where did you get ppl to subtitle WATS? I'm looking to subtitle 'Archon Defender', and my short film 'Tales from the Afternow', wondering if you still had contacts for your subtitlers...
ReplyDeleteIf this becomes serious, there are professional services that should be explored for data recovery.
ReplyDeleteLook on the bright side, even if it's lost, this may be a great way to practice 'improvise jutsu'
ReplyDeleteWhat up, home slice? ALiEN LEADER in effect! Send me mad linkage with your latest works of digital mayhem. I've got a web site up and will be posting my latest works in the near future.

Oh super- around the world in 14 days, but Pterosaurs attacked his aerostat and oops ..
ReplyDeletesomewhere outside Bangladesh
at filthy waters of holy river Ganges
but RED socialistic Sun wasn't Japan
but he loved Japan and said only few words
in Bangladesh they know only Bangla
after his 2 days working at rice plantation,
Some of them realized-
WATS, film director, M dot
they didn't realize what means M dot
Geez they knew what means a film director!
Good deal !
on a dirty truck during the rainy season
Mumbai
Bollywood
Starwood
what wood?
3 days crying of such movies ,to cry everyday and eventually to commit suicide.
he could become rich and kick kicked the poor little Indian boy in the ass
BUT he was real hardcore-man
and escaped
through Indian ghetto to the airplane's board
when he was already on board, his plane transformed into giant robot
now he is mech's pilot somewhere in galaxy clusters # 2029
and if the tallest man in the world if you will find him there, tell him...
hmm...
xD
his mind has gone first at 30th May, they agreed to meet at a cafe on Montmartre, but still to 18th July he could not find his mind all around Courchevel
ReplyDeleteI do understand that he is not in Bangladesh
no sane person who would go there... ^ ^
I know it looks a bit strange but it is at least though some explanation what is going on
but honestly I might think that something had happened except pterosaurs
but someone also publishes comments here
or someone has cracked his password 0_0
Is he alive
now I understand why Andrew said "if I were M dot..." lolololol
I think Andrew lives near...
If a couple of days HE does not appear we shall call the police lol
the Lord of rice if you will come here dont laugh please
still I am sane
