GOD FUCKING DAMNIT

Post by Falco Girgis »

It's about fucking midnight, we've all been recording shit all night, and GUESS FUCKING WHAT.

Dear god, they actually ported ES to a piece of celery!

Well, Peter and I were up until 3 AM. We downloaded about 10 recovery programs. We managed to recover every one of thousands of photos on the disk, but every single MP4 wound up corrupted.

Looks like we have a loooooong day ahead of us.

In such cases I use "testdisk" on Linux. Maybe "dd" to write an image, depending on what is damaged.

Actually, this did turn out to be the case, and all is good.

We've just had to work extra hard today, and have about managed to catch up with where we should have been by now without last night's frustrations. Looks like things turned out all right after all.
