How to stop myself from data hoarding? I'm wasting a lot of time and not even using 5% of it.I need one of you guys to convince me that what i hoard will always be on the internet.
>>107230981Why are your storage devices laid out like how law enforcement lays out evidence they've collected?>I'm wasting a lot of time and not even using 5% of it.Share it with the relevant communities.>I need one of you guys to convince me that what i hoard will always be on the internet.It won't, there's a nuke coming in 2030.

Keep data hoarding, do what you love.
>>107230981>what i hoard will always be on the internet.It won't
>>107230981>what i hoard will always be on the internet.It won't, but also it doesn't fucking matter if you never even look at it.
>>107230981and what do you have in there?what data?
>>107230981>not even using 5% of itsounds to me like you're hoarding storage, not data
>>107230981>I need one of you guys to convince me that what i hoard will always be on the internet.I was thinking the other day. That I bet you there is some rich guy out there who hired someone to hoard lots of data for their bunker.
>>10723098199%+ of everything posted to the internet is already gone foreverI was lucky to recently find an old archive of the entire ASSTR libraryI was only looking for a single story but that shit is almost entirely gone, managed to find it through DHT search on btdigg with like 1 seederI now have it saved on a 7x18TB raidz2 array, should make offsite backup too though
>>107230981>I need one of you guys to convince me that what i hoard will always be on the internet.Depends on the stuff you have. Obviosly there won't be any of yours photos and videos. There is no point in hording radiohead albums. Popular enough stuff will always be available. Something obscure maybe not. But why do you need it? Will you ever open those files?
>>107231676>It won'tThis. All the music, some of the books and audiobooks and videos I saved (no porn). I can't find any of it. Even with private trackers, forums or torrent related irc channels.
>>107234163con. It started when I wanted to upgrade my mp3 to flat.
>>107230981nah it won't, everything will disappear. But, what are you hoarding that much? modern internet is just slop after slop, and most golden age websites are gone
>>107230981You will die. None of this shit matters. It does not make your life better. Stop it.
>>107230981>I need one of you guys to convince me that what i hoard will always be on the internet.This is simply false, shit gets taken offline all the time.
>>107234163Music is the most common shit to disappear in my experience. There is almost always a mirror of even the most obscure youtube and porn videos you just have to know how to find it. Music? That shit's gone gone.
>>107234335And fuck private trackers. Complete waste of time and effort if you are looking for archival/rare stuff.
>>107234341circlejerks are never a solution
>>107231242Yes.
>>107230981Usage is not what defines the quality of an archive.
>>107230981>what i hoard will always be on the internet.it wont, but its also 99% useless garbage that you will never look at again
>>107230981The internet might not always be on the internet if you get me.Basically everything might be taken away at a moment's notice, either by oppressive governments locking stuff down or hosting services going down or otherwise. Your testes will be smashed if you delete all that stuff. Something will end up permanently lost to you.I'm someone who wishes i did what you did and because i didn't, there's stuff I'll never see again.
>>107231128Do you want him to stack them like some book nerd and have them tip over and fall on the floor? You monster. You want him to lose all that data.
