Did Toy Story 2 ever have the chance of vanishing? - (by pixarsuperfan10)

From Tested.com:

Pixar’s Oren Jacob and Galyn Susman recount how the files for Toy Story 2 were almost lost due to an accidental Linux command and bad backup. It’s probably a little over-dramatized from what actually happened, but is a good reminder to back up your important files!

Currently on the FAT KID NINJA blog… Over the course of the next few weeks we’re going to be chatting about the development of FAT KID NINJA. This will be of interest to people primarily interested in the process of making an iPhone app: artists, writers, voiceover actors, programmers, and even that dude who is sitting in the corner staring at you right now who has no discernible talent at all but who just is really, really, really interested how a game goes from idea to app store (there are many of you, and Yes, even you can make an app!). This conversation will be a little more heavy in the art/animation and character development area as THAT’S WHAT WE LOVE but we’ll also dive into our gameplay and programming decisions, generally how we arrived at the game you can play right now. So this will be fun. Discussion starts next this week when we discuss how the hell we came up with the idea for FAT KID NINJA in the first place.

“The record that made it into the stores is the one Nirvana wanted you to hear, and I’m content with that. I have no beef with Nirvana, they were a normal bunch of guys under extraordinary stress and they behaved normally. All the motherfuckers around them, all their functionaries and managers and label parasites, those petty little people who fucked with them to preserve their positions within the industry, fuck every last one of them.”

I’m sorry if $2 is too expensive for you but to me it seems like a really, really, really small price to pay for A GODDAMN MOTHERFUCKING LITTLE SCRAP OF HOPE FOR WEIRD NEW WORK IN THIS SHITSHOW OF A MARKETPLACE.

I’m just sad my payment has to go through Amazon, but that’s a whole other can of worms.
