One call this week, from Patrick, about the archive. We talk about how archive.noahkalina.com came together, why the photos are presented in random order, and what it actually feels like to go back through 20 years of work.
Also, somehow: SSD prices post-tariff/AI mania, I guess, why I use Samsung T7 Shields as temporary travel drives, the Sabrent hard drive docking station (and why it might be the most economical way to use bare 3.5" drives without an enclosure), and whether any of this backup strategy actually makes sense.
Call the Hotline:
845. 232. 1732
(or send a voice memo for better quality)
