A new challenger for this sad top 10 has appeared.


always has been


I think most ppl do want to make the world a better place, but most ppl give up very easily, because they have urgent personal matters to deal with as well. Most think often about how they can help fixing the world, but they can only do so much every day, so they are like “It’s a shame I can only use rechargable batteries and plant wild flowers for the bees, but my taxes aren’t gonna file themselves.”
Little did we know that’s a glance of the real inner Duchovny surfacing


dd just copies raw data. you can name it however you want. it’s not a specific format. but some file managers will react to the file extension. so if you name it .mpg they will try to launch a media player and .iso will make them think you want to burn it to a CD/DVD.
What you may want to do is convert it to a Virtualbox Disk Image (.vdi) like so:
VBoxManage convertfromraw <inputfile> <outputfile>.vdi --format= VDI
#or
VBoxManage internalcommands converthd -srcformat RAW -dstformat VDI <inputfile> <outputfile>.vdi
#or
VBoxManage convertdd <inputfile> <outputfile>.vdi --format VDI
Also, on Linux there is a command literally called file and it will quickly probe files for what type they are. For raw disk images it will often say things like boot record or file system, because that’s what’s at the start.


why an iso? it should be the VMs main drive. iso’s aren’t writable. iso implies the file system for an optical drive.
however, it’s possible you’ll run into licensing issues.


In that pot it can only become a bonsai, but I will probably rip it out before it comes to that and the animal doesn’t retrieve it’s food until next year, because the roots could come out through the pots bottom drain holes and cause damage.


Thanks for the info. We don’t get blue jays here in EU, but lots of sparrows and the eurasian jay known locally as the Eichelhäher (Acorn Jay). The acorn seems too big for regular sparrows beaks, but not sure. If it’s an eurasian jay I probably won’t see them, because they are very shy here. I only ever saw them from very far, hiding on trees when I heard their warning signal.


Yeah, there are, but I have only ever seen them on and between trees, never on houses. Would be nice to have them visit during the day, when my shutters are rolled up so I can admire them.
The hole is also very small and I had blackbirds dig in the pot next to it before, so I also suspect birds. Crows are known to leave gifts and acorns are among the possible choices.
If it was a squirrel, it may come back and search it in a few months.
There are actually services for that, so companies can retrieve websites automatically when they can’t: https://2captcha.com/ https://anti-captcha.com/
This came up at work a few times, but in the end it was cheaper to ask the site owner for a data export 🤷
