fascinating looking back at backups from high school. honestly, it's a strong argument for planning to filter what you backup and to rotate out the backups eventually. such garbage...
Found the #aqsis renderer source. I think I was playing around with #makehuman (a #blender plugin project for generating 3D models of human bodies) and that's why I had that. Cool to see MakeHuman isn't abandonware.
I even have some cutsheets from an architectural modeling class (one of the school's career training elelctives). SubZero freezers and wine cabinets. Reminds me of why I didn't continue with it. Became abundantly clear that we were designing huge houses containing expensive things that only very rich people could afford and benefit from.

Maybe I would have more money now though if I had stuck with it. It was laughably easy to design these things if you had the right software and measurements. Way easier than writing software.
good reminder that I wasn't always competent with computers and system administration: in a journal entry, I'm confronted with the fact that I switched to #Linux full-time for my personal computers because I had accidentally overwritten my disk partition table and didn't know how to recover the #Windows partition

I never keep cloud backups. Only locally stored. If my data goes on a platter- I'm going to own that silver platter.
@lucifargundam oh, these are local. I noticed my backup drives were pushing a TB, so figured it's time to clean house.
I do have a long-term cloud backup though, encrypted with tools I understand. In case my house gets destroyed. You gotta have at least one offsite backup -- 3-2-1 rule and all that.
apparently i played a game called "savage2" back then.
