Luddite cope thread

I'm trying to recover data from a Windows 98 PC, and I would like to back up the hard drive (which appears to be failing). I can still read data intermittently, and it sounds like it keeps doing repetitive seeking before it gives me data read errors and general drive read failures. The computer doesn't even detect the drive half the time, and it won't boot from that drive at all.

I would like to try and boot from a Linux recovery distro and see what I can do, namely clone the failing drive before doing anything else, but the optical drive doesn't appear to be plug-and-play (I can't boot off of it because the optical drive only works after drivers are already loaded), and I couldn't get a USB stick to work, so it seems like the only option left is to boot from a 1.44MB floppy disk and get the computer to clone the hard drive itself. I've added another drive, and that one works flawlessly, so it seems only the master drive is bad.

It's actually harder to get a straight answer on which linux distros you can boot from a floppy disk than I would've thought. It doesn't even matter if it has to be an old version, people are saying the wrong version number is capable of doing so (like with RIPLinuX, so I don't know which ridiculous version to use), and I'd prefer one centered on data recovery anyway.

It's a "Proteva Pro Series" PC, I guess. (Not pictured.) It doesn't sound very distinct, but apparently they thought it was distinct enough to brand it that way.

>ddrescue
This is the correct response. You need to use ddrescue to clone this drive as fully as possible to new media. Only then can you start thinking about repairing the filesystem or using something like testdisk to scan for known filetypes. I've used ddrescue multiple times to pull data from storage that was failing. So many other tools assume your storage is healthy & will crash the moment your SATA/USB/etc link drops out. ddrescue just picks up from the log file & keeps copying.
>>
>>107838366
You keep grinding at a failing drive you're going to kill it for good.
Get the IDE-USB adapter OR find a computer that has IDE + SATA or whatever OR try installing an OS to another drive on that 1999 computer.
Meanwhile chill (the drive, as in put it in a ziploc bag in the freezer) until you're ready to do the data rescue, sometimes that works on drives from that era.
>>
>>107839265
Everything on and about the computer says 1998, but I'm doing it right now, I just need to add more RAM cause I guess "65"MB isn't enough for Clonezilla. I'm also adding a soundcard and seeing what I can do with salvage parts.

Some idiot who was in here before me put the CPU fan connector on the chassis fan output.

Alright this is wild

Before the sale started, I had some items in my basket, total after shopping credits was £3.80 or so
Now the sale has started, the exact same items cost £7.11 total after shopping credits.

I knew sales were fake, but I didn't think things actually got more expensive during them. Should have just ordered when the going was good. Bah....

Returns have been pretty good in my experience. Don't get angry with them and don't half-ass it and you'll be OK. Provide whatever pertinent photographs, videos, and background information you think is necessary. You can say something like "while the lights are all on on the device, in the device manager the value at (whatever indicates the problems) shows that blah blah blah". Essentially just explain it to them and make sure they know you aren't just too retarded to use the product.

I can't find a replacement screen unless I pay like 500 quid for one for some reason which I'm not gonna do obviously.

I've learned a lot using AI to solve leetcode problems. It can show you what you're doing wrong in your solutions and give you an overview of the correct implementations.

Every idea I have has been done 5 times now. It doesn't help my only ideas are types of social media, and I'm ready to just give up because no one gives a fuck.

Seriously though, is there any point in trying to become successful? I could just build stuff that makes me happy and I can feel proud of, instead of caring what others think and stress myself out with users.

Well to elaborate, I think you should try programming more for the fun of it than to make something that will be used by others. Being a "good" software developer isn't something that neccessarily that makes you wealthy, it's more about riding trends and appealing to the masses.
Make something challenging but within your skill level. Learn C or some other language that's closer to hardware. Or perhaps learn about old CPUs and write assembly.

>Every idea I have has been done 5 times now.
That means it's a good idea, as it has succeeded several times already.
>It doesn't help my only ideas are types of social media
Social media has the chicken/egg problem. You need new users, but nobody is joining because the place is empty.
>Seriously though, is there any point in trying to become successful?
The system is rigged. You can work hard to become successful, and maybe you will be. Someone else can just go to the bank, get a pile of tax free income called a "loan" and just buy success.
>>
>>107838014
Is your idea to make some big multi million user application? Well of course it's going to be done to death. Big corpos have a monopoly on that sort of thing.

Return to tradition with the old internet way of doing things, just make websites for things you like and for small communities you want to cultivate. Fuck mass appeal.
>>
>>107838549
I don't try to compete with big social media, but even a niche community is a PIA to moderate. Being a janny is a huge toll on mental health and anything I build must either be zero moderation effort or have an extremely high entry barrier to post. I already have some ideas but it's just so demotivating knowing a functional site won't get me a job/secure a good future because literally nobody gives a fuck!

If you want users, you'll have to target the audience of short form content. Under 1 minute, and jumping from one video to the next, minimal permanence with nothing being memorable, but the majority love it, so that seems to be the future.
But if you don't want to moderate, then it'd be best to sell the tools and services of an opportunity, rather than deal with that headache yourself, assuming then that there are enough people with a vision out there to know what to do with your software tools.
Regardless, finding success alone is near impossible, and working together with someone is a must.
