UPDATED Google Drive users are reporting files mysteriously disappearing from the service, with some netizens on the goliath’s support forums claiming six or more months of work have unceremoniously vanished.
The issue has been rumbling for a few days, with one user logging into Google Drive and finding things as they were in May 2023.
Ha. Amateurs. I disappeared YEARS of my files by self-hosting.
I drunkenly formatted a backup drive once. Not a fun realization to make the next morning.
… Why were you doing anything remotely like formatting a drive while drunk?
I was formatting and resizing usb drives for work. I had already started drinking and was only half pay attention to what I was doing since I wanted to go back to hanging out with my friends. I really needed them for work the next morning and I failed to realize I left the drive plugged in with my other USB’s and formatted them all during my conversation/drinking session. It was only in the morning did I realize what I did.

If you can’t do it drunk don’t do it sober.
Well you know, it’s 2 AM, you’ve had a couple beers, and you say to yourself “you know what would be a GREAT idea, if I split these two RAID arrays and rearrange the disks so that the ones with pristine SMART are more evenly distributed!”
I mean, you think it’s more enjoyable doing that sober?
Maybe they are an alcoholic
Or maybe workaholic
One thing leads to another, yeah yeah.
For confidence boost. Didn’t anyone tell you booze increases your mental HP /jk
Never flash disks/pendrives on evening or if you want things quickly done. Always unplug everything else first. Or else Murphys law.
