You’re right, but those notebooks don’t need backups, they can’t corrupt, and they can’t be hacked into. They work during power outages, when the internet goes down, etc.
- criddell 7y agoA text file on a computer satisfies most of those constraints as well.
- Aeolun 7y agoAs far as I can see they meet only one of the described conditions? (E.g. working when disconnected from the internet)
- 0xffff2 7y agoAs far as I can see, the claims are so nonsensical as to be equally (non)applicable to a notebook or a text file. - Neither needs backups. In fact, a text file is much easier to back up if you want to. - Neither is particularly likely to be corrupted these days, but a notebook can just as easily grow moldy as a text file can be corrupted by a disk error. - A thief can just as well break into your house and steal your notebook as a hacker can break into your computer and steal your text file. - A pretty large chunk of computing is done on devices with a battery these days. Depending on the time of day, a notebook may not actually work well at all during a power outage.
