Norcal Spotted and BS Thread

The fence is my wood rack. My mastery carpentry skills murdered out black.

 

Always nice to spot fellow TWer’s on the road! Spotted @LTDSC today

 

What?

 

Anybody know who this is? Looks super clean in person

 

If you are baffled by early fifties technology, Tesla’s must really blow your mind...

And I’m totally just pulling your chain.

 

It would seem Mr. Walker was answering a question no one was asking.

 

Welp fellas - I might be sticking around the states. Literally quit my job today and got a text out of the blue asking to come in for a final round interview with a company I have been interviewing with for over 3 months. I've been wanting to work for this company for a while now!

If anyone has any insight into any apartments near San Mateo...let me know!

 

Sometimes those drives come with software that allows you to copy from one drive to another. These sometimes use a bit copy rather than the operating system. If the drive will spin and it’s just starting to go bad, this might work. However if it’s the drive electronics, you will need to replace them before trying to recover-at this point, if you are not comfortable, I would leave it to the pros. It might be $1000 or more to repair. Keep in mind the more you screw around, the less chance you may have of recovering anything.

You could reinstall the OS on your new drive then try to connect and copy from the old to new (except OS).

Good luck.

 

I buddy of mine was quoted 1500 to 5k to recover his 1 Tb hard drive that took a shit. I think he ended up paying less then 2 k but he had 1000s of baby pics Of his first born. Keep in mind he is a computer wiz builds his own computer/ rasberry type of nerd. And he paid someone. Only cuase he didnt want to risk loosing the pics and have the wife say I told you so .Hopefully theres a super nerd on here that can help don out.

 

Friday IPA day! Cheers!

 

I built this computer about 8 years ago for gaming. But I'm no nerd. Insert tab A into slot B is all I know. I have two hard drives. Massive amount of RAM. The primary isn't spinning up. I barely filled the drive up, and the second has almost nothing on it. Way over kill. I guess I could just build another. Just another dumbass move to wait on replacing the drive.

 

I built a few as well. But this guy is building 2+ systems a yr kinda nerd. IYKWIM. Always got the latest and greatest. I am lost nowadays when it comes to tech. I'm more into sex,fishing, trucks and my home vs computers. Lol got 0 time for games.

 

Yeah me too.

 

Hopefully you’ll be able to replace the board on the drive and it will resolve the issue. Look up the make and model of the drive and do a bit of googling. It may lead you to a solid temp fix just to copy over what you need. If you ending up loading up a new OS on the solid state drive, I have a few usb to IDE/Sata adapters you can use to attempt to recover the data. I had three drives I stored in the garage during my move, left it in the garage, winter came around and effed it all up. I’m still trying to save $$ money to recover all those years of family pics.

 

My sister in law have a home for rent in San Leandro, Heron Bay community. I think it’s a 4bd 2.5 Bath two car garage. I can ask if you are interested. But toll across the bridge is $7 now

 

Dudes...something is wrong with me...lately I’ve been seeing a lot of 5th Gen 4runners in all shapes and form..and it’s appealing to me, makes me almost want one. I mean I can’t have both..is this the IPA talking? I better snap out of it.

 

That's funny! I bought my "WIFE" a 4runner. And I had a two different Tacomas.
