You might be well served then to learn some basic carpentry. You don't even need to own the tools, you can rent or borrow if need be.
Can't find some shelves you like matching your wallet? Go buy some materials, get a couple photos and/or measures of what you're after, draft it up, and get cuttin'
I haven't done anything like this in a long time, but if you're the hands-on type at all it can be fun.
And even if you hate it and you suck at it, there must be someone in your area who'd do the work for you, and still be a hell of a lot cheaper than you'd get from a vendor.
I can program synth patches and pick/adjust samples, I can arrange, I can mix* well enough, and I can do some basic mastering.
But I don't seem to be very good at the raw "creation" - I can't just sit down and tool out a melody that sounds good.
* - By mix, I mean riding faders and such, not "mixing" in the manner of splicing tracks together. I've never actually tried that, but I have no interest in doing so and I think I'd not be much good at it anyway.
Is that why Python doesn't have advanced concepts like threading? Is that why Python is considered a good teaching language? Do you really think there aren't mediocre Python programmers out there?
See, you're forgetting the fact that the book resides on their servers. So removing their copy took it out of the database. This idea doesn't apply to dead-tree. There's simply no physical analog.

And I think you can kiss my ass about my FSF membership. I pay my dues. I'm allowed to have my own ideas even still.
As others have said, a.22LR is hardly adequate blah blah. I've heard of people surviving even from poorly executed shotgun suicide attempts... and it's the kind of thing you really don't want to fuck up (because no matter how things seem bad now, it will be infinity worse after)
Lets move on to the other bit: it seems men are the ones who tend to 'violent' (gross/physical destructive) means, where women go for the peaceful (targeted/systemic destructive) means.
You do realize that 1984 was zapped because Amazon found out the publisher wasn't authorized to distribute it, and thus Amazon was not authorized to distribute it? (something about it being out of copyright in some countries)
It could have been any random book, and they apologized and (supposedly) took measures so that such mass deletions will not occur again if a similar situation presents itself.

Diablo III Beta Begins
·
· Score: 1
I bought Diablo II. I bought Lord of Destruction.... I won't be buying Diablo II though
(I hope they have something like "players 8"... for those who don't know, it let you simulate multiple players in single player - eg the difficulty would ramp, making the game harder but giving you more rewards for it)
par/par2 files coupled gzip/bzip would do the job just fine, and it's all free... though it doesn't fit into one file (the parity archive is separate).
I it possible to coax it into returning the data it thinks is bad? I'm wondering if you could re-read the sector repeatedly, recording the results to separate files (or however you want to store them) then looking to either test the file with the different segments, or perhaps figure out the parts that are changing only and do the same?
You could just use a block compression algorithm. Doing so, only the damaged block is lost. You can read around it. Including something approaching Reed-Solomon code means (depending on how much was damaged) you could recover the data!
Only if you're stupid (again) and have Windows on said secure network. Here's a hint - you can only get to it through (non Windows!) trusted (read: secured and audited) machines, and only management devices reside upon it.
This is assuming you're stupid and use it over an untrusted network.
BMCs and such generally talk over a protected VPN and are not general access. These are the same LANs that allow you to telnet to APC controllers and fiddle with power outlets.

Indeed.
I can program synth patches and pick/adjust samples, I can arrange, I can mix* well enough, and I can do some basic mastering.

Sound engineering is one of those rare processes in which everyone thinks they are good at it, and they are almost universally wrong :P
so just to be sure, I'd rather hate you.

Ahem.

Simpler idea. No underpants, and they sit on a little toilet-like thing. G forces push it right into the collection bin :P
Even better...
Have you ever seen one of those cow-grinders?

First one. dd_rescue also works, but it's a little less featured and (in my experience) not quite as reliable.
par/par2 files coupled gzip/bzip would do the job just fine, and it's all free... though it doesn't fit into one file (the parity archive is separate).
I've recovered files with holes as large as 10%.
I haven't touched a floppy in years...

It's called parchive, and unfortunately it requires you to have included such data before it was damaged.
You could just use a block compression algorithm. Doing so, only the damaged block is lost. You can read around it. Including something approaching Reed-Solomon code means (depending on how much was damaged) you could recover the data!
ddrescue rather than just dd. Still, if the device simply returns bad data and says it's valid, this doesn't help much.

I apologize then for being too specific. Go troll elsewhere.
