Feeling really pissed off and I need to blow off some steam
I'm feeling really pissed off because of that my old laptop broke down and I needed to buy a new one and I thought I could recover all my files if I bought a USB adapter cord thing and I plugged in into my hard drive and my new computer and transfer my files via USB cord connection but no that's not what happened, flashback:
It's all because I thought my files were physically stored onto my hard drive and I thought that if my laptop ever broke down my files were recoverable if I took the hard drive out, but apparently my computer syncs my files digitally on a online file hosting service called "OneDrive" and so I don't like OneDrive because when I boot up my computer and it tries to sync with OneDrive it takes like 10 minutes for it to load and sometimes my computer even needs to be restarted cause it can't load properly so I made the fatal mistake of turning off OneDrive because it's causing issues and I didn't understand it and thought it wasn't important, I thought how OneDrive works is that it makes "clones" of my files and stores them online for me incase I needed them, I thought it was not important cause the "original" files were on my hard drive but they aren't
Fast forward, when I took my hard drive out and plugged it into my new computer to copy my old files I could only copy my files before I turned off OneDrive, All of my files that were downloaded after I turned off OneDrive are gone, Everything downloaded after August 3rd 2022 is gone, 13 months worth of images are gone, I tried to log into my Microsoft/OneDrive to see if I can sync my files again but no I can't because I need to turn back on sync on my old computer that can't ****ing turn on
All my important files I cared about are all ****ing gone because it's all my fault. All of my drawings are gone, all of the art/signatures I had that other TBT members made for me are gone, all of my screenshots are gone, I had a folder I was working on making of all my aesthetics for my online accounts that was never finished that is now gone, I had a bunch of image resources I needed that are gone. All my folders filled with all my images are gone, hundreds of images worth are gone forever
Why did I ever make the mistake of turning OneDrive off because I was frustrated it was making my computer crash, it's all because of that everything is gone. I was thinking about making my Tumblr account be a image-storage for my files to be redownloaded again should my computer ever die on me but decided against that idea and I hate myself for that too.
I'm sorry it sounds stupid to cry over images but I am genuinely so upset, I'm upset my laptop broke down in the first place, I'm upset I needed to spend all my allowance to buy a new one, I'm upset because all my google bookmarks and my notes from my sticky notes app are gone and I thought "well at least maybe I can recover my files" but no, all I want is to have all my stuff back, now I have to spend god knows how long trying to search the internet for my all of my hundreds of images to be redownloaded again and that doesn't change the fact some of my stuff can never be redownloaded ever again
