Your first post was just for me.
And it was informative too, as I had not even considered which part in particular on the HDD's PCB might be broken.
I just want you to know that I really appreciate that. -

Originally posted by Grylls you posted pic(s) of your ex girlfriend before right, i don’t mean da escort
The black one?
I posted a pic of us making out.
That was over a decade ago tho (when it was taken).
I dated her back in 2005.
Been "single" ever since.
By which I mean, fucked a whole heck of a lot, but no date nights or hand holding or any of the really enviable stuff.
Women use me as a walking vibrator...

2019-03-31 at 6 AM UTC in DIY Data Recovery (Power Issue / Unrecognized Drive)I'm taking it to one of the small handful of places around here with a clean room.
They have a decent reputation for data recovery.
The commute there and back (via public transit) is an entire day trip.
Plus, they quoted anywhere between $1000 and $3000.
But ones gotta do what ones gotta do. -

Originally posted by Octavian I was going to say Zooks, was that crack whore not marriage material? Sounded like you were on a delusional euphoric high at the time. One of those moments when you come down or wake up the next day cringing to death at the naivete of it all.
The crack whore from last week?
Sadly, there have been plenty before her.
But it's kinda cool that I'm ever-so-gradually conquering the learning curve, and weeding them out quicker and quicker.
One day I will be able to impart upon this thread the wisdom accumulated from the fallout of dozens of catastrophic romances. -

Cuz they're predominantly dudes. I have no use for the preservation of such digital imagery.
I guess technically my ex-"roommate", the escort, was a temporary squatter, and I saved a bunch of her backpage escort ad pics for nostalgic reasons.
But I really don't like posting people's pictures online without their permission.
Oh, that and they're on my currently broken external hard drive (thank you for reminding me of yet another thing lost that day).
So even if I could, I wouldn't; and even if I wanted to, I couldn't. -

Originally posted by Grylls did you take any pics of these squatters? how did they get in?
I let them in. I'm too nice and a sucker for a sob story, especially if it involves a substance addiction problem, being riddled with those myself.
Of course, they're never total strangers. They're always acquaintances or friends of friends I've met before, etc. -

Actually I thought of a much better idea... Turn a high powered fan on at full blast and aim it directly at them.
Automatic loud sound AND constant cold air == no choice but to wake up. -

Originally posted by Erekshun When is the last time you slept?
Last night, for like 12 hours... Finally.
In fact, that's precisely why I have developed this new found clarity.
I almost spent actual cash money on a chick yesterday because I wasn't thinking straight. A more rational man would have realized sooner that she is a self-serving sociopath. -
2019-03-30 at 9:20 PM UTC in THOT Detection 101: How to peer through the veneerFirst off, obviously, not all women are self-serving, man-eating succubi[Citation needed]. But many are. It thus becomes necessary to develop a certain sixth sense that allows you to determine early on whether a potential dating partner is worth investing any time, effort, money, and especially emotion, on.
This thread will serve as an open-source compendium for collating suggestions, preferably backed up by empirical scientific inquiry or solid rationale based on well-established psychological, biological (e.g. evolution), anthropological, or sociological theories.
However, strategies and methods learned from hands on experience, or observations made of others who possess and express this valuable skillset, can be a valuable source of creative solutions to such a pervasive problem. -

I lived in Kelowna for a couple months last Summer.
I might go back up for a visit just to witness this lunatic in action. -

Originally posted by Technologist So what’s up Gad? Are they all still there?
The gal, tho, I'm kinda developing a romantic attraction to.
However, it turns out she might just be a textbook sadistic, self-serving, thot.
She's also a real handful.
I'm well known for the scope of my psychoactive drug experimentation. This chick, though, makes it an every day habit of combining ~5+ unique psychoactive compounds.
And then there's the blatant manipulation. She frequently tends to pull a George Costanza and leave items behind at my apartment worth tracking down.
By leaving things like a literal liter of whiskey at 4 AM because she suddenly needs to leave, or her cute little gold-colored cat ears headband or a pair of sunglasses, etc (Thus leaving me impatiently awaiting her prompt return that might - which of course seldom happens), she has me in a perpetual state of expectation of her return.
