Hmm, that's odd. For me it's usually very good at finding filesystems regardless of the partition table (though come to think of it I've never actually tried with a partition that starts too late, only too early, but I don't see how that would affect it's method on a deep search). If you haven't already reformatted, etc. and do want to try to recover I would suggest running it again and trying different options and such (particularly look for the "deep" or "advanced" one, I forget what it's called off the top of my head).
In phones with removable batteries, the SD card is generally hidden next to the SIM and requires moving the battery to get to it. So you can't swap while the phone is usable at all.
Sorry, but that's just plain not true. I've had 3 different smartphones with removable battery and SD (holding off on getting another because those features are so hard to find now). In exactly 0 of them did you have to remove the battery or SIM to change the SD card. To change the SIM card, yes; to change the SD card, no. (On the last 2 you do have to remove the back cover -- snap-off -- but not the battery)
Yeah the privacy thing bothered me at first but I grew comfortable with it the more I thought about it, given the other aspects of the society (trying to avoid putting too much in terms of spoilers here but basically I feel within the framework constructed in the story it doesn't actually hurt anything to lose your privacy).
That's an interesting perspective. I have to say I personally disagree with you. Not sure if you're referring to the privacy aspect or something else -- but the privacy aspect I found dystopian at first but grew to be ok with it given the other implications and conditions of the story.
This exact choice is contemplated and explored in a short story I really enjoy: Manna by Marshall Brain. You can read it on his website: http://marshallbrain.com/manna...
Apparently a lot of doctors still do. There was an article on Slate about it today.
Given the issues I've seen with coverage and random SMS delays on phones, I'm glad they do.

I figure if I had to go to Stack Overflow for something, it's likely something that some future reader (or myself) may want more context/explanation on, and the Stack Overflow discussion generally contains a lot more than whatever snippet I happened to take. So I tend to include the URL in a comment.
And this is why I buy Dell laptops. And would be incredibly stressed out if I didn't have that option. I like particular things. I already know I like them. I've tried the alternatives -- and I don't like them. Other people like different things. If someone only wants to give me a few choices they have to pick some things I don't like. That's what I hate about this "too much choice" meme. It fails to account for the fact that while it may be true for _some_ people that too much choice stresses them out, others don't mind the choice and are stressed out by not having the _right_ choice available. Other comments here have rightly pointed out that people who don't want to think about it can just go pick the top ranked items, and pretend those are their only choices.
I'm not female, so excuse the potential mansplaining, but I suspect it has a lot to do with changes overall in software and society. Back in 85 the people getting into CS were hardcore nerds, male or female, not just looking for a job that was popular or going to make a lot of money. This means that it was full of true nerd culture, and not either "brogrammer" or "SJW" culture, both of which I think repel true nerds. Then more overall societal pressures mean that non-nerd men are much more likely to get into software than non-nerd women, whereas the nerds of either gender didn't care what society thought.
I also suspect (and this is where the potential mansplaining comes in, but I do have backup) that the fact that women in tech are now WOMEN in tech, versus women IN TECH is probably driving away nerdy women who just want to get their nerd on and not deal with conferences about women in tech, etc. I think this article is a really good read (and the comments from people criticizing her for it are also telling): http://www.linuxjournal.com/co...

I feel like if the Renaissance era had been infected with Windows, we'd probably know about it
If the government wants to use eminent domain, they can do that for their own purposes, but I don't think they can do it for corporate purposes.
True, according to the Constitution. Unfortunately, the Supreme Court believes otherwise.
Careful, hugs may violate a code of conduct!

Try testdisk (generally comes in the same package as photorec). It can find filesystems and fix the partition table

The statement I'm referencing was in 2014!
No one seems to have detected any apology from Trump.
It's worse than that... he actually doubled down on it. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/...

Check out this excellent short story, it contemplates 2 possible paths in the scenario you describe: http://marshallbrain.com/manna...

The best part is, his own link says that multiple times...

Your post reminds me of this (IMO excellent) essay: http://www.linuxjournal.com/co...
Sure, but GP was saying that they fall back to 3G speeds, which are a LOT faster
Umm no, T-Mobile falls back to 2G speeds, around 64-128 kbps. While not literally dial-up speeds, it's pretty much the same neighborhood.
