I talk out of my ass at times, and the bit level statement could be one of them. Nevertheless Spinrite is a little known but amazing tool for HDD and SDD maintenance and recovery. Just go hop over to the forums. I used to be a member in them back in the late 2000s. You'll see. There are deep drive nerds and they know their stuff.

This is the best I can find in a pinch. It's possible it reads at the sector level and repairs at the bit level. It's been awhile since I've been knee deep in Steve's ass and testimonials. Old Security Now episodes have a lot of info on how it works.

Data recovery companies work the hardware which can be a point of failure. Spinrite tries to recover the data before the hardware fails. The greater density a disk has, the more failures are expected and error correction just assigns bad sectors as they fail. Between that and the OS, my understanding is that the slow degradation of a drive is managed until it can't be. Even running Spinrite on a new drive is beneficial because new drives come with bad sectors. By assigning them as bad up front you get ahead of bad sectors and even can catch a lemon before it crashes. I've recovered unreadable drives with Spinrite. It's impressive. It doesn't solve all issues, but it's really good.

I think you are mistaken and don't understand how Spinrite works. It reads at the bit level and only reads once at level 1. If the data is going to be lost at the first read then it'll crash when read by a professional company.

Buy Spinrite. It's not perfect but it's the best thing available for drive maintenance and recovery. I have used it for over 10 years. If the drive is dying it'll take forever, but I've recovered data that was nearly gone due to sector loss. It goes down to the bit level BTW. Someday Steve will release v7 .. someday.

That's awesome. Thank you.

True.... It's very passive. No one ever pressed me to think this way but I just did... And still sorta do. Maybe movies? And I was susceptible to applying that concept to myself? I dunno.

No kidding. Where is the affordable housing that's not a 50 yr old apartment.

Just heard of Venjent cuz of this post. Thank you!

Have some ideas on other DnB that's not too pop? I'm old and struggling to find new stuff. When I dig around the new stuff it's just to clubby...like more picking up chicks and less like dancing till you sweat through your shirt.

I still wallow in stuff like Massive Attack, Orbital, the Orb, Roni Size, Photek, the Prodigy, Deadmaus, Chase and Status, RJD2, etc just to give some examples.

Damn. Why didn't you say that sooner. Now I understand how it works! Thank you.

I regret this screen protector drives me crazy. It works for my thumb print only some of the time. It could be user error but I think I'm giving up on it. I hope I didn't lead you down a failed path.

My company filed for two PPP loans to keep afloat. Any company could have just kept making money and the owners could have pocketed the cash. There were expectations that employees were not fired and other questions in the application that I can't recall. When we applied for forgiveness on the loans we provided tax receipts and staff numbers over time. I'm sure it would have been pretty straightforward to lie or find someone to lie for you (accountant with less than stellar ethics).

It struggled a little but I did add new fingerprints which helped.

We'll get drunk enough for an alt right orgy.

This seems like a manufacturer supported page. Good comparison of products but the title acts like there will be different makers included. Anyone have a suggestion on a reliable dash cam for a good price?

A long time.

Thanks.

I just feel terrible that I hurt a dog and don't know how to react. I know it wasn't on purpose but I get sad if I run over a squirrel in the road.

Thank you.

My other kid had a good perspective. He said if our dog ran out into the road unleashed we wouldn't expect anything out of a driver who hits the dog.

USA?

That is helpful. Thank you.

I plan on going back by later today.

I feel horrible. I think it didn't help having my daughter inside the car and the dog with me. I agree talking to the lady across the street and stopping back by to check in may be best.

I don't expect people who take him up on that will enjoy it if coming from America. Just a guess.

It seems like you are getting more knee jerk than actual answers here. There is no evidence of any discrimination in asking to deblur the camera by itself. It also has nothing to do with an I9 validation. The I9 validation is checking for employment eligibility and citizenship status and that's it. See below for the remote procedures. The employer's obligation is to be consistent in the procedure and not discriminatory with the procedure based on race, gender, etc. I just think that HR drone is a dumbass.

Lastly, I think based on your other response to another poster she should take the job and just be keenly aware if anyone else in HR asks other funny stuff. There can always be dumbasses in every department and that's not a reflection of their ability to be lawful or a bad company. I also think it's worth reporting the person if they keep doing funny stuff.

I think we went through 3 removeds on one within the warranty period... Great ride with sliding windows and sliding door. Good times. I recall my dad showing me the engine under the hood. I don't have any idea how someone worked on it. It was horribly crammed in.

Seems like they figure if they can con the postal service worker to get the mail past the first goalie then it'll end up wherever it needs to end up. I read down the rabbit hole and there is some crazy interpretations of you as the sender act as some independent entity with a population of 1 so you qualify for the source of this non postage mail item. I'm tired now.

Dumb question... What's the issue? I'm a Venza loving freak so I could be biased.

As others have noted, LLMs are prone to error and need review. They can be very helpful in taking large amounts of information and making it more concise.

To your question about how AI can generally be of use, AI is good at taking large amounts of information we humans normally would have issue consuming and reacting to and giving us reactions based on the algorithm we gave it related to the info. I'll give you an example from my life that may make sense to you as a fellow small business owner.

I used to work for a large company that had a travel agent. I used to travel every week and was told to use the agency to book my flights. The corp has specific requirements about 2nd best cost and non stop vs 1 stop. I could end up with a crappy seat and extra flight stops and had no control officially. Back then I would use Expedia to stitch together what flights I wanted and then casually provide constraints to the agency so that I would get exactly the carrier, non stop flights and decent seats... But it required time to figure these things out. I was the AI taking all of the info thay mattered to me and crafted my result based on what I wanted. I would game the agency/corp's constraints to get the one flight I wanted.

AI could be useful for managing your schedule (personal and work) to book sessions for clients. One could argue that how hard is it to just let clients book into your schedule, but consider Motion app. Motion can watch how you book clients, when you take lunch, when you normally start or end days, and help move appointments around or create availability on the fly. You could tell an AI app like motion that you need prep and clean up time, you take longer lunches two days a week, etc...

As with all AI you can do what it does. What's interesting is AI can learn your processes and start to anticipate like a good Admin executive.. But it takes training and maintenance. That's the expensive part. Maybe time, maybe money, maybe both.

To make a long post longer, AI could help with marketing. It's like the old school mail inserts, but with extra smarts. I'm sure there are AI marketing tools that take certain data and constraints and then shoot out various emails, calls, texts and posts to the demos you need at a frequency and amplitude that the tool thinks matches your business model. I'm speculating at this point tho.

That's not good. I haven't thought about this use case before.

Reading The Road as a new father. Fuck that. Made me cry.

You done fucked up, JD Vance.

American Movie. Sweet film about a quirky but determined film maker to make a movie and hit it big. The characters are fantastic slices of Americana.

Anvil. Film about a heavy metal band who almost made it and try one last time. The crazy part is the night I watched it they were playing in my home town. I regret not going to see them. They are just a few normal guys who are lived by their community and once rocked out on the same stage as Metallica.

Such a great subtle comedy. It's in your face but somehow just passing by like a fly at high speed.

The two next options in the Movie Night are great too. Edge of Tomorrow is great when you think about the revised movie name.

Greg Abbott??? No?.... Damn.

What's a Box Office?

Archangelos Micheal.... Come on... (Second line on the return letter)... Ugh.

Ooh.... That is good news. Thank you. Screw Big Blue.

Pro tip... Don't buy shitty bandages. Go straight up Band Aid or Nexcare. I actually prefer Nexcare.

True.
