Is there a free way to back up 3TB of data using cloud storage or some other means which isn't likely to fail (e.g. hard drive failure)?

I have three fully filled up 1TB external hard drives and accessing them is becoming more and more rickety (they often take 9 or 12 plug/replug attempts before they show up in explorer). It's also extremely slow moving files between these drives.

The stuff on these drives is too important for me to lose, but I don't want to have to spend a monthly fee on cloud storage. I don't want to have to create 50 fake emails to abuse the free 5GB from Google drive either.

So I've been dating this guy for about a month now. Things have been great so far and we would talk every night and get along very well.
We both went on vacation last week and didn't see each other for a week. While he was there he started talking to me less and giving me very short replies.

Last night I went to see him and he didn't speak to me at all. He was more focused on his friends (which has been happening every day) and I just ended up going home.

He has told me he doesn't like the situation I'm in even tho I did make it very very clear that it's something he'd had to deal with if we dated and he said he could handle it. So I do feel like that's maybe the reason why he's been so distant. He also said his friend thinks I'm weird because I'm shy

He said I can spend the night with him tonight so I'm going to talk to him about it.

I'm mainly going to ask him why he is so distant but I don't know how to word it.

So back in primary school I used to bully someone in my year.. It was really bad.

I never physically bullied but psychologically made his life as shitty as possible, the worst thing about it is that almost everyone else in that year and even a few teachers went along with it. Looking back all these years later at how vicious it was I still feel so much guilt over it.

And the worst thing is, I saw him at a local comicon-esque thing and had the opportunity to talk or even apologize to him and didn't because I was too scared. But even that was almost a decade ago. I am almost turning 30 soon. Is it too late to still try and make it up to him somehow? Is it even worth it? Is it even possibly dangerous? Is still apologizing after all this time the manly thing to do? Will he understand that it didn't come from nowhere, and that I was bullied at home by my at-the-time mum's boyfriend's brother's children who were twice my age and size?

I am young and I still do not totally control my emotions, starting the year my life was ruined ...
I lost my career for decisions that I thought were correct, my job as a doctor was lost as a result, I went to work very hard abroad to get a car (which I lost in a serious accident that had nothing to do with lives) Who were then my in-laws that no matter what happened, I would never give up and do my best to be someone in life and have something to offer your daughter ...
After having lost the aforementioned, my ex-girlfriend deceived me with someone in her career ... there was a lot of evidence in front of me to realize, too much ... however I ignored it because she was the only thing that I remained and was inspired to continue fighting to rebuild my life.
The day came when things went out of control, the deception was so much that I reached my limit and out of despair, anger, sadness, impotence, frustration and other mixed feelings; I took revenge on my own ... And that's when I released our intimacies online ...
I thought of nothing but revenge ..
Given the consequences of my actions and for obvious reasons, I lost any contact with her; Losing her was losing the only thing left in me.
Now with the weight of all my losses, I am trapped in my own head, I have rebuilt much of the lost, but for some reason the great emptiness that she left, overwhelms me, makes me miss her, hate her for treason, apologize for doing something to her That perhaps I did not deserve and accept that everything was part of my life only; But ... why then do I still feel sad about his absence? Why even though I go out with more people I do not forget it? Why do I keep thinking about such things?

My boyfriend (21) of 3 years has been having doubts since the beginning of the relationship. We have a great relationship and he constantly talks about how perfect I am and how he wants to marry me. At the same time, doubts pop into his head whether that's truly what he wants. He says it's either me or no woman at all. These doubts cause him to sometimes not want to see me for a few days or to last minute cancel on dates. (We're students living with our parents.)

Now I've told him we can go on a break if that's what he needs. So he can freely travel the world or not do anything at all. He doesn't want that because he's scared he'll fall in love with someone else and lose me.

I don't know what to do. Should I break up for his sake, because he's too scared to do it himself? (And obviously mine, since I have no interest in a doubtful man.) Or should I refrain from making his decisions for him? I can stick it out some more since our relationship is pretty good besides this issue. I'm pretty sure that if the doubts have been there for three years, they won't ever go away tho. Or is it an age thing?

>Picture is not related

Hey /adv/, I am currently in a situation where it might benefit my mom (who I currently live with).

My mother did not have a car after it being repo'd a couple years ago. I learned that the car is owed around 14 grand. Here's the kicker.

>18% interest
>340 payment (10 fee online payment + 330 for the actual car)
[A note, in one year, only 700 was paid to the actual car, the rest went to the interest.]


I looked into this situation, and found out that the car is under my brothers name since he had the better credit score. However the contract had this kept up.


We tried getting in contact with the dealership and the person who ripped my mother off, but the bank has the contract so not much we can do about this.


Until, my brother recently spoke to the bank about a deal in order to at least change the interest rate.

Here's the offer.
>pay 1500 by sept 4th, and the bank will lower the interest rate from 18% to 5% and the car payment will be from 330 to 265 a month

My mother does not make a lot, so she could definitely benefit from this offer. At first glance it does sound nice. But, she doesn't have the money to pay it.

My brother offered to chip in 500, where she needs to put in 1000. Knowing this, I'm planning on putting in 600, where she needs to cover 400 (to which she says she can).


I spoke to a trusted family friend's parents, and they told me to ask these questions.

>Is the bank legitimate? (It is)
>Does the 1500 go towards principal on the loan, or the interest.
>Does it change the length of the loan or is the same amount of time she has left.
>Are they going to be charging her any additional fees or taxes?
>How much time is left on the loan now?

I have a good chance with this girl, and my only concern is that I know she's had mono before, which I never have, and I don't want to get the virus. Does anyone know of ways to avoid it without scarification intimacy? Or will I just have to deal with it?

So, I convinced a "pure" girl to let me give her a underwear only/naked massage, what is the best way to turn it into a dicking while keeping the touch in a "sfw" way?

I never did it before so I need some kind of retard-friendly guide

And I mean pure in the meaning of "she is a fucking retarded cocktease that wants the D but will never admit it unless she is fucking soaking and is a "modern" female that will cry rape if I do anything before she scream for my fucking dick"

I would usually not go to the NO DIGNITY path but this is a fucking 20yo 9/10 girl with boobs like pic related

>Finally got together with three people to make a band.

>Still auditioning for a pianist for the group.

>Fortunately, my best friend is a great pianist and my mates wouldn't mind having her.

> Recently we've had an argument, where she revealed personal information about me to people around us at the moment, and even ended potential relationships because of it.

> I've forgiven her, but it's become obvious that If I have a fight with her, she'll undoubtedly start drama with my new band mates.

>The other issue is, is that we've talked about starting a band together since high school. It was originally my dream, but I wanted her in it.

> If I ask her to join, it could potentially ruin what I've been working for for so long. If I don't, it'll ruin a 9 year friendship that only recently started to fall downhill.

>People tell me "oh, you'll make more friends! What she did was awful anyway", but that's just not the case. I'd be the douchebag in this situation by pushing her away from something we both dreamed of.

Advice, please
