Social what computer do you have?

I generally use Mac OS. Always running behind a double vpn. When I torrent (I know, bad Tom) it's usually done through Tor behind the van's. I run backup software 24/7. When the backup hard drive is full I buy another hard drive. I have a non used MacBook Pro and iMac in case my main driver gets stuffed. I'm not relying on the computer to do anything important - not even taxes.

Back in the 90's I used to get infected quite regularly b/c I was always downloading viruses and testing them on my own systems.

I screwed up badly. Once. I used a work computer and had compressed the entire hard drive and the driver got corrupted and the computer wouldn't boot. I got the driver off of my home system and had to put it on a bootable floppy. The work comp booted. I ran the driver and was able to read the compressed hard drive which I then copied to an external hard drive (back then a 200 mb hard drive cost $700), formatted the work comp, reinstalled Windows 3.1, installed the backup software and then copied the backups > work comp. Problem solved and I never touched my boss' computer again.

I use an iPad Pro to keep all of my handwriting and dialysis notes.
