damn mate. that absolutely sucks. I hope you can recover as much as is possible.
regarding technological advancements and the cloud. I find doing it the old fashion way of physical backup hard drives my go to as well. just make sure that you keep one hidden and never to be brought out anywhere. that way you will always have a backup no matter what happens. I have about 2-3 copies scattered that doesn't leave the home. that way, if anything gets stolen on the go, I can recover most of it.
Yeah, to your point, I still keep the cloud data on hard drives around the house. I used to rotate them into a fire-proof safe, but I've gotten lazy. It's mostly pictures of the kids, weddings, ripped audio, etc.
I also try to use two clouds. I have stuff on Dropbox and Google Drive. I'd be devastated if I lost the pictures of my kids growing up.

I hope so. I had a good few hours of adrenaline fueled activity immediately afterward. But I’m struggling these last few days. Still can’t catch my breath so to speak, the loss is astonishing. Superficial and replaceable mostly, but astonishing nonetheless. Insurance won’t help, it’s just a straight loss I can’t get back.

I kind of like when girls sound like that. It's cute.

I spoke to a forum member the other day and he said he was surprised I had a southern accent, being from Pennsylvania. I didn't realize I had an accent at all and was slightly mortified. But all I could do is laugh. I guess (unfortunately for me) I am as white trash as I was afraid I am.

The australian version of up talking is to denote something as a statement that sounds like a question, without phrasing as a question. It gets me in trouble when talking/working with folks around the world as I have to explain that something is either or is not a question :/. It's a thing - australian question intonation; https://www.bbc.com/news/magazine-28708526
Who the fuck is the arse that (presumably on national TV) says, we dont have accents in America?
