I love this, it’s brilliant

Yeah I loved the old days when my phone would get bricked from being in my pocket during a light rain

Is this what whipping the llamas ass looks like?

I only ever use the search bar so IDC how its laid out

That’s great, glad to hear it. Start doing backups too!

Hyper-v is bundled with windows now and is just as easy to use as virtualbox (slightly easier for windows guests since the drivers are bundled in the os)

If the disk is failing anything you do that reads or writes it could cause data loss. Even having it plugged in and powered potentially could. It depends on what component of it is failing.

That being said, fsck is pretty safe. It’s the equivalent of chkdsk in windows, it looks specifically at the filesystem for things that may have gotten screwy.

ddrescue/gddrescue is your best bet for recovery. It can detect bad blocks and skip them, and it has some p robust resuming capabilities if your disk locks up while.its running. I usually use it to clone entire physical disks to another disk or an image file that can be mounted. I don’t know if it can be used to grab specific files, I’ve never tried.

If it was me, I’d take the disk out and let it cool to room temperature. Then I’d ddrescue the whole thing, with resume turned on, to an image file. Then I’d run fsck. If fsck finds and recovers filesystem issues, I’d put it back in the pi, continue using it, and start doing regular backups of important files via a cron task.

If you think it’s the filesystem try running fsck. It sounds like a failing storage device to me but there’s not nearly enough information to say for sure

Literally just an opinion and people are down voting you for it

That rarest of all creatures, someone admitting they were wrong on the internet

See if you can find a copy of Lost Luggage, loved that game as a kid. Also River Raid but that’s not really obscure

I’m waiting for the-crotchOS, a distro that caters to me specifically and no one else

Linux with KDE required

Not true, it’s available for all major distros regardless of DE as well as Windows and Mac OS

whine about green and blue bubbles.

The only people who whine about that are children and Europeans.

Ideally we would have something like email (but of fucking course not email, because its atrocious) that doesn’t require any corporation or centralization involved, where we could run our own or choose which entity we want to host our data, and would be interoperable across entities.

Thats called jabber and it’s existed for 25 years.

You understand it’s historically significant

Being attached to something historically significant (in certain parts of the internet, we’re not talking about the magna carta here) by itself doesn’t make a collectable interesting

If your empathy isn’t broken

lmao

I get that. What that means is this isn’t a prototype controller. It’s a regular SNES controller with a different logo on it. The only thing that makes it special is that they used to to test something unique and interesting. Might as well buy the AC outlet the system was plugged into.

The system would have changed the landscape, sure. There’s nothing unique about the controller. It’s a standard SNES controller with a Sony logo on it

I get that it’s historically significant, but this looks exactly like a standard SNES controller with different badging. I can’t imagine why someone would pay “big bucks” for it. It’s kind of boring as a collectable.
