It all depends..
Using cloud storage as a backup/archival can work..
Depending on the criticality of the data, the frequency of the need to write/read from that data, and the time required to recreate that data..

If you're storing something like PICs, and it's the ONLY place you are storing those PICs, that's a bad idea.. ;-)

If you are storing a copy of the PICs, then it's not too bad an idea per se..
If, assuming the worst and your data goes POOF, you can just copy them back up to another site, it's not too big a deal...

Cloud can have it's uses...
Just make sure you aren't depending on it always being there...  ;-)

Just noticed this...

Quote from: Tripitaka;678251
People who steal do it for one of three reasons only:

2: Poverty, and in a society that continually uses the most advanced subliminal messaging it can in order to make them desire material things the poor could argue that they are brainwashed into the criminal act.

That's not a "reason," it's an excuse...
Big difference...

And as for brainwashing through subliminal messaging, I don't think so..
If that worked, we'd all be..
...
Sorry, had to run out for a Coke..  Man, that's refreshing....  AH!!!!!!!
