Today I tried to start my work laptop and it wouldn't. I was afraid it had completely borked. (Afraid, yet also hopeful.) No, my data wasn't backed up, and this is a great reminder.

(FWIW it wasn't borked but wouldn't charge from the power cord; charged when I stuck it in a docking station. I will have to check if this is a permanent evolution, but not today, folks, not today.)
