meh, IMO VMs take too long to configure just to answer a question.. and I usually have to do so much damage to them that I have to create a new VM every time..
@Seth you could. i used to answer 5 a day at least and 3 of 5 got upvotes. it's just that it's time you could spend doing paid work. so you have to choose how thankful your work is.
if you have to search, you're not answering from the right place, unless it's - i know i did this before, but i'm looking for a detail i missed or forgot
i like snapshots, and i like that canonical put out uec/openstack images for ubu server. images that load perfectly on aws that are actual desktop images too would be nice, but it's not a thing really. it just is.
brief aside: i wonder what the query limit is on the paid service for realtime data from yahoo finance... just on the realtime ticker applet front. seems like something to know.
Right, but that in itself isn't much of a question since it doesn't matter.. I think you're looking for the grammar/reasons behind choosing one over the other?
@Lucio Well I'm not sure the English Language & Usage folks would care what you named your method, they'd be more interested in the grammar behind it ;)
Anyway, I'm out for tonight and I like exists better ;P
I need help from someone, anyone.. It's been a couple of days now and I am still unable to access my harddrive and all the files that are on there. askubuntu.com/questions/405759/…
I somehow know that with using TestDisk I will be able to get to a (allmost) full recovery, if I could just find the one with the expertise , that would be great..
This error message is to expected on a deeper search of a drive that had been re-partitioned several times in the past. Of course will your drive not be able to hold all these old partitions, because they would add to much more space than available.
The next step to do is to select the NTFS part...
@Nkciy84 there is a limit of 4 primary partitions only. Each additional partition needs then to be a secondary partition in one of those 4. So removing the Windows restore partition gives you more freedom.
I figured that deleting [Bios_grub], shrink [DATA], allocate the newly made unallocated space to the [Ubuntu] partition and finally use boot repar disk to get [Bios_grub] working again
I am not going to mention backups. I am not going to mention backups. I am not going to mention backups. I am not going to mention backups. I am not going to mention backups.
system admin (again a windows one) need to create shares for 100+ users.... so he thinks: we got /home/{users} so easiest is to make those shares..... it took 2 hours before nobody could log in.... the users saw all these files beginning with a dot and did not know what they are .... so they removed them....
@Nkciy84 you got no external hdds? I got like at least 10 doing nothing :X :X
@JourneymanGeek I got exactly 1 personal file that is not backed up on the internet (ie. movies, music ;-) ) and that is my password file of a wopping 10kb
@JourneymanGeek In case my /data/ gets destroyed all I need is my dimeadozen password and I can find my torrents... I just download my own torrent files :D
I used to save all my anime on external discs but restoring those takes longer than redownloading :X
@Nkciy84 partitions may show up multiple times... to change from 'D' to anything else you need to choose the newer one. In case you had a GPT partitioning (had you?) you could try to make them all "primary". Did you select Intel or EFI- GPT on testdisk partition selection?
