Do you archive things before they disappear, or only after?
Been thinking about firmware preservation lately and it's making me wonder where other people land on this. When you find a piece of software or a site that's on its last legs, do you grab a copy first or wait until it's actually gone? I used to be the second kind of person, but I'm not so sure anymore.

In my line of work we learned to photocopy everything before the coup, not after. Once a thing is gone, what you get back is someone's version of it, not the thing itself.
