After the clouds passed by without producing a tornado, I turned the computer back on, but it couldn’t start Windows. I haven’t even gotten it to boot from my SD card with Linux on it(I’m sure I did that before on that computer).\nI finished the comic on my mom’s computer thanks to frequent online backups, including one right before shutting down. I COULD continue to do the comic on her computer, but I’d rather not continuously borrow it. There’s another laptop I could use, but it’s older than my computer & has its own problems. It’s 5 years old and mine is 4 years old.\nI’ll have an update on Monday letting you know how things work out, but the simple fact is that I can’t afford a new hard drive(or my car payments at the moment) and I’d rather put my money toward a replacement computer anyway. Considering this comic doesn’t earn any money, a hiatus is more likely than putting too much effort into using a different computer. Maybe having no computer will force me to sleep at NIGHT and maybe fill my morning hours with a second job? Seriously, I work fewer than 20 hours per week, so I should be using my time more productively.\nAlso, I DO have backups of my files. However, it’s online backup. The backup service(Carbonite) doesn’t back up all file types, so I don’t know what files I will lose if I can’t recover them directly. Online backup should really only be considered a supplement to an external hard drive. Ideally, you should have at least 2 backups of everything.
