[00:30] <Aranje> every level of fucked: lost my C drive today
[00:30] <Aranje> backup god saves me from dataloss
[00:50] * chronomex praises the backup god
[00:58] <Aranje> still, main pc is down for the count
[00:58] <Aranje> :(
[03:03] <godane> Aranje: Can't you just a linux live cd?
[03:04] <godane> cause if only the hard drive is effected then at least your computer is better off then my old desktop
[03:05] <godane> the power button just stopped working one day
[03:05] <Aranje> For browsing the web, sure. But if that were the issue I'd just continue to use this pc. I need access to my data, and it's all on ntfs volumes which linux is less than stellar at handling.
[03:08] <Aranje> gonna put ubuntu on it, should do the trick
[03:09] <Aranje> at least until I can figure out how to... burn a win7 disk.
[03:11] <Aranje> ...or not
[03:11] <Aranje> ubuntu locked up :D
[03:55] <dashcloud> Aranje: NTFS handling should be pretty damn good by now- ntfs-fuse should do any normal thing, and even many of the special/edge cases
[04:04] <Aranje> really?
[04:05] <Aranje> Last time I tried it (only... two years ago) I had massive data loss. ubuntu's whatever (ntfs-3g?) managed to eat the middle out of a bunch of my files copying them.
[04:05] <Aranje> It was horrendous
[04:07] <dashcloud> here's the company that handles it now: http://www.tuxera.com/community/release-history/ - check the community pages there for answers to a lot of common questions
[04:14] <Aranje> mmk thanks
[04:14] <Aranje> I just... I don't want to lose my music again
[14:46] <joepie91> okay, this is bad: http://torrentfreak.com/anonymous-file-sharing-ruled-illegal-by-german-court-121123/
[14:57] <SmileyG> so tempted to troll the german who constantly brings up the discussion of our CCTV cameras.
[15:45] <ersi> chronomex: Something seems to be up with the tracker again, etc.
[15:50] <balrog_> http://www.locusmag.com/Perspectives/2012/11/cory-doctorow-the-internet-of-the-dead/
[16:27] <schbiridi> joepie91: i am not even clicking on that torrentfreak rubbish but this is a local court which is known to be extremely pro content mafia
[16:27] <schbiridi> so it does not really mean anything
[16:27] <schbiridi> hopefully the defendant will rise to the higher courts for justice
[16:36] <joepie91> schbiridi: not so sure...
[16:36] <joepie91> as far as I know, there's a certain amount of possibility for case law to be used in germany
[16:36] <joepie91> in future cases
[16:36] <joepie91> like, not full-fledged like in NL, but to a degree
[20:35] <chronomex> 12:32:54 <@ersi> Haha, Dick. Great name.
[20:35] <chronomex> um, ok
[20:35] <chronomex> it's short for "richard"
[20:39] <SmileyG> becomes funnier now you think about famous singers, or kings
[20:39] <SmileyG> Little Richard, Richard of (York?)
[20:39] <SmileyG> Richard the Lionheart
[22:30] <dashcloud> hey Aranje - how did the data recovery go?
[22:31] <Aranje> I didn't lose any data
[22:31] <Aranje> I was concerned about access, there was never any risk of actual data loss
[22:32] <Aranje> I back up :D
[22:33] <Aranje> And my windows 7 disk was dead, still is :(
[22:33] <Aranje> soooo windows server 2008 r2 std it is!
[22:34] <dashcloud> so you didn't try using ntfs-3g from a live cd to see if there was anything there?
[22:35] <Aranje> Nah, I wiped the drive outright
[22:35] <Aranje> there was nothing on my C drive which hadn't been backed up
[22:36] <Aranje> err
[22:36] <Aranje> well, technically i swapped the drive out for a different one.
[22:36] <Aranje> the broken one is still here
