    Why would I be in such a clinic in the first place?

    You are visiting your partner at the their place of work, which happens to be a lab, with your newborn baby and an accident happens and a fire breaks out. /s

    I believe I would save the baby simply because I can emotionally relate to it and not a flask with some frozen content.

      their place of work

      Home?

      which happens to be a lab

      I mean, it does house all my code experiments, so I guess it’s a lab. The sort filled with abominations begging to be relieved. “Delete me!” I can sometimes hear them cry if I open ~/Projects and linger a little too long.

      with your newborn baby and an accident happens

      If she carries a baby to term, there have been at least two accidents already, what’s one more?

      Though I’d probably be saving her instead. Odds are the baby could crawl faster than her after pregnancy is done with her.

      Shame about my PC though. I’ve got all the important stuff backed up, but there’s a few code projects I’ve been meaning to get back to some time…

      I believe I would save the baby simply because I can emotionally relate to it and not a flask with some frozen content.

      Yeah, I think that’s on the mark. I can’t in all honesty say I’d stand there rationally weighing the ethics of the situation and morality of the choices. The baby feels “more human” than the jar. It also probably has better chances of surviving the lack of refrigeration.

        Pregnancy sure does a number on the body!

        You don’t happen to have a good off site backup solution to share?

          I’ve got a Nextcloud storage at tab.digital, set up to sync with Nextcloud’s own client. It does the job just as well as Google Drive, but is hosted in Europe and not by a bloodsucking megacorp.
