The older I get the more i realize stuff from just 10 years ago has been scrubbed from the internet. Web pages or boards, images and stuff. Search engines suck and it seems like things dont actually stay online as long as you might think. That can be a good thing but also pretty bad. Many images i used to see posted on image boards pretty commonly cant be found anymore. I think, if you like something a lot, try to save it, because the internet isnt as permanent as you think. （ ´_ゝ`）

Also, consider this: solid state media can lose data if left unpowered for long periods, its not ideal for archiving.
