Disk failure is imminent

No political cartoon today because, as you can see from my photo below, my hard drive gave me the middle finger.

I was half way through my cartoon, yesterday morning, when everything just about froze and warning messages popped up all over the place. And because I draw digitally, that was me finished for the day.

What ensued was emergency backups, driving around, spending a grand, phone calls, going grey, and eating scrambled eggs (with croissants) that my wife made.

The good news is that I enjoyed the scrambled eggs (with croissants) and I didn’t lose any important data.

The bad news is that I now need hair dye.

    I hope you had a Time Machine backup running?! Saved my data a few times already, and it’s pretty easy to use.

    Replace that hard drive with a SSD as well, and you’ll get a nice speed boost :)
