That’s my luck for you.
Hard disk is broken, and the only way to get my data back would be paying a boat of money. So I’ll have to buy a new one and in the meanwhile use VG’s computer.
Luckily most of my data was on my domains so I already got back the important stuff, but I lost forever the large versions of my computer-colored drawings, a review for that videogame site I’m going to open, the fansubs in progress and all those logs and stuff from ages ago, and we’re talking about 2003 here. How wonderful. Luckily, the last thing I did with my laptop was sending a copy of the exam I was writing to Cercatesori, it would have been a lot worse if that didn’t happen, but anyway. The loss of the review still bugs me very much. My only hope is that Cercatesori has got the log in which I sent him its first part, but I’ll anyway have to write the second part all over again.
I may have a backup from 2007 somewhere at my parents’ which would allow me to get back most of the old stuff, but I’ll have to wait until April to know. I could also find someone who’ll get the data back from the hard disk for a lower price, but I don’t know.
Thanks goodness that I wasn’t working on a layout or something like that, that would have seriously sucked.
About the fansub, while doing the translations for Myuutsuu no Gyakushuu I’ve discovered some very interesting things. Now I don’t really have the time to write everything down, but to sum it up the translated scripts you can find on the web have some major differences from the actual script, so if my intention was to only do the Italian fansub because I thought the ones the English ones other people made were already enough, now I’m willing to do the fansub in both Italian and English. Denise, I’m looking at you. :)
now I only have to wait for that hard disk, dammit.
