What happend

I was backing up the virtual computer that hosts all of my stuff like the counting bot and it corrupted the data on the virtual computer. instead of leaving it I attempted to save the data but I was tired and I did not read the warning saying I was about to delete the virtual computer. I did not have any backups and data recovery attempts were unsuccessful.

What data was affected

Everything that I host that includes the following (from memory):

  • counting bot
  • historical growth trends for the bot
  • website analytics
  • my public photo gallery (i have a backup of this)

Toyota decided to make the brake light nonuser replaceable and the only way to replace the brake light is by replacing the entire assembly. Repl
