Right, well testdisk has worked wonders in the past for me. It might worth a try especially if this is a spinning rust drive. It has helped me recover broken partitions and lost files so if you know where you’re looking you just might have a chance. I’m no expert but it seems like one of your last options with all the info provided. Best of luck!

Shrodinger’s cat wasn’t some simplified lesson for the layman. It wasn’t even an explanation. It was a commentary about the quantum model itself and how the current state of the model is laughably incomplete and unable to adequately answer or predict anything of value (yet). It wasn’t until more recently that some Newtonian physics might be explainable as emergent properties of quantum mechanics, but we are still a long ways away from a unified or blurred model.

What are the chances the header is stored in the partition map? Could you use testdisk to try and recover the old partition map and its data?

Yup, it really depends on if you want to specifically get experience with CAD or have a working thing in your hand. Blender is perfectly capable of working in scale and is how I’ve designed / printed anything custom with perfect results.

This realization is why I hope Austin Powers 4 never happens.

Also why the fuck are foreign companies allowed to buy housing?

Any WiFi 6 or 7 router in which you can install openwrt and set as a dumb AP connected to an x86 machine running OPNSense or openwrt itself. The redundancy and enhanced control are 10/10 worth it, along with security and stability.

Just use accelerometers to measure specific gravity and have time be a function of that measurement. Problem solved!

Yup. 16 years ago as I was finishing high school, my friends and I would have a solid 2-3 month window of going to play in the snow on a nearby stretch of mountains. We’d go several times a year every couple weeks. Now, the ski resort there is lucky to have 2-3 weeks of usable snow.

I didn’t get a chance to look too deep into it, while it looks great for human reading in a terminal, can I just as easily output the diff to a patch file like I do often with ‘git diff [commit] [commit] > patch.txt and git apply it?

Likely because you could, in most normal conversational speaking cases. With T9 you didn’t have to press the number multiple times unless it wasn’t picking up the word you needed but at a high rate of correct predictability, only pressing 10 different buttons would be a lot faster than typing on the whole keyboard. The software being fast enough to keep up is a little less likely compared to modern smartphones but hey, at least you could send a confidently correct text with your phone in your pocket.

I’m not sure LUKs can lock a drive that’s booted already since it’s not a RAM session like a live CD is and relies on the decrypted files to operate. This is why the encryption key is prompted from your boot manager prior to actually getting the system running. That said, I lock my computer all the time and just rely on the normal user password to get back in.
