@sean_ae Always. I even want a filter-like timeline with polls. Maybe it's a perversion, I don't know, I just love polls and surveys.

@crazydutchy Thanks, will consider also.

@puppygirlhornypost2 @drwho As far as I understand, it's kinda tedious to get to that USB disk through WSL2. I mean, I use it every day for development, but in this case just don't know, hence I'm asking.

@drwho I'm skilled in *command-line* Linux, like ssh to a server and do something. That's because I'm totally blind, and Linux desktop accessibility, especially from scratch and especially from live USB, is something questionable, so to say. I'm not saying it's impossible though, just needs more time and effort. Thanks!

Folks, I need help. A friend of mine handed me a nearly dead HDD with tons of photos and documents. It's a WD My Passport 500 GB, very old, making funny noises but not too much. Windows sees it, diskpart says file system: raw.
What is the best way of attempting to recover the data? We don't care about the HDD itself, just the files on it.
After some investigation I found GNU DdRescue (needs to load into Ubuntu which is a bit daunting, I have no experience working with Linux Desktop and screen readers really); R-Studio and a couple more pieces of software for Windows.
Any ideas, comments, suggestions are hugely appreciated.
