There's a scrivner file that contains almost the entirety of the Role Playing Game I've been working on for about two years. I have backups and I keep a copy of the file on Dropbox.

my answer is boring. It's the text file which contains my crypto wallet seeds. everything else is replaceable (at least in theory).

 No.958

a text file with all the anecdotes of cool, funny or strange stuff and people i happened to run into during my life.
Normies are always astonished when i tell those, and i love the facial 0_0 expression of (legal) lolis with boring lifes when i tell them. It's a cheap method to be interesting when talking to other people and to make them laugh and also they carry a lot of memories with them.

If your wallet seed is easily memorable (i.e. it makes some sort of sense) then it's insecure. If you are able to remember a string of random words, that's good because you don't need to store it somewhere insecure.
I really should just write it down and delete the file.

I can't think of anything that I treasure that much. The only thing that I've gone out of my way to keep, and find again after losing, is a picture that someone drew of me on /jp/ years ago. There are a lot of images and videos that I regret not keeping, and I think if I still had them they might be something I would post in this thread.

It is hard to pick any one file that is precious to me, since most of them can be recreated or downloaded again. I have some text files from when I posted

Maybe my folders of screenshots I've gathered from online game communities that I used to attend. A lot of silly stuff in there.

>>972
Never seen anyone make such a face at the sight of regular old mushrooms. I don't mind the taste too much anymore, but I never liked mushrooms when I was a kid, so I kinda learned to hate it. Must be mushy mushrooms my mom used to serve, their taste is a little metallic, and I don't like the texture. I love the mushrooms my aunts serve, since they tend to cook them in such a way that they get really crispy. Almost like bacon.

 No.975

I've saved more or less every single imageboard thread I've ever seen in a folder, as MHTML. That isn't a single file but since threads get deleted quite often (and archives don't contain thumbnails) those files are irreplaceable.

 No.979

An archive of the data I scraped off of a dead family member's electronic deveices, I have it mirrored on half a dozen locations to (hopefully) ensure that is never lost. I've never looked inside nor do I ever plan to, it would just pain me greatly to know that the last traces of their existence are gone.

No, I won't do that. They were saved from my browser, which means they have the (You) next to all my posts. My custom CSS, timezone, etc. is all saved as well, so it would be a compromise of my sushi rollymity.
In the future maybe I'll write a script which thoroughly removes all of that but for now I just encrypt them and back them up to jewgle drive.

Honestly probably a buttpic from my ex, the rest is mostly replaceable, even if it'd be a huge bother and take a lot of time.
Which is a shame too, since I can't look at it or I get to thinking about her again. But I can't bring myself to delete them either. Nostalgic sadfaps were the best the period I used to do it on the reg even though it's so emotionally toxic.

It is a kind of peace of mind to keep it though, it's nice knowing I'm not checking it by choice rather than because I can't.
