Hmmm... you remind me of a good friend who's also very dutiful about his backups. Can't say the same for myself, though zips of the current project do tend to pile up here and there.
I have a 'book' (well, half book, half collection of scraps of paper) with all manner of user/password combinations for various and such. Still get lost from time to time, but it helps.
If you can get hold of an ISO or repair disk I think stuff like this How to Reset Your Forgotten Password in Windows 10[^] could possibly work - but might be a pain to follow on a phone.

It is fixed. I brought it into the shop where I bought it from. I am not sure what they did, but they managed to save all my data. And it only cost me $30. All in all I got off lucky.
Within you lies the power for good - Use it!

Good luck with that. IIRC W10 OEM defaults to encrypting the HDD/SSD. If that's the case I'm not sure yank and fiddle will do you any good.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

Have you tried turning it off and on again? I am referring to your fingers.

So, wasted $15 and 2 hours on this festering pile of excrement.
Amy Adams: is she a professional actress? Doubt it on this showing.
Jeremy Renner: Hawkeye with glasses.
Forest Whitaker: shouty military man.
The rest: who cares.
On the face of it, the story should be interesting. As a short story it works. As a long, tedious and very boring film that does not deliver on early promises, it does not.
I think this is one of those cases where not everything translates to the screen. Yes, the special effects were ok and the depiction of the aliens interesting; it simply did not entertain or provoke thoughts over and above "is it over yet?"
The guy sitting next to me said at the end "Do we have to wait for the sequel before it gets interesting?"

What? Did you want more explosions, death rays, buildings being destroyed on mass by gigantic aliens spaceships? Watch Independence Day II for all that rubbish!

Did I say that? No, I did not. ID was rubbish but at least it was fun. This was turgid. Not every story makes a good film.

I just came across this Twitter account: The Expert Beginner (@ExpertBeginner1) | Twitter[^]
"It sounds like a bad idea to you? Let me repeat myself more angrily until it doesn't."
"Why don't they offer minification for C#?"
"How do I know I'm right? My 25 years of experience to your 5, that's how."
"It's only a bug if someone's angry."
There's some good, and unfortunately recognizable, stuff on there

What's the name of the code gen tool I use? It's called "junior developers."
Ooh, that hits home, and is one of the reasons I gave my notice last week.

Was reading the book he mentions in his bio.
Quote: In The Expert Beginner, Dietrich traces the path of this programmer from rise to inevitable downfall. The author describes the development of the expert beginner’s mindset, explaining how one might believe in the achievement of total mastery while faced with evidence to the contrary. He then shows how, if put in a position of power, this person will poison entire software groups and create a culture of stagnation. Would love to know who inspired this book
"There are two ways of constructing a software design: One way is to make it so simple that there are obviously no deficiencies, and the other way is to make it so complicated that there are no obvious deficiencies. The first method is far more difficult." - C.A.R. Hoare

Actually it is only copy-paste, not even normal typing...

Only if you belong to the QA school of programming.
If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.

There is any other school still operational? I think not...

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?

Programming is just googling ... googling one part of the code from one site, another part from another site, and so on ... and stitching them together.

That, young Padawan, is why you fail.
The language is JavaScript. that of Mordor, which I will not utter here
This is Javascript. If you put big wheels and a racing stripe on a golf cart, it's still a f***ing golf cart.

They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old:
Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.
At the going down of the sun and in the morning
We will remember them.
I have just returned from my act of remembrance. There is a Commonwealth War Grave here with some 530 casualties; there is even a Soviet soldier. Next door are Serbian and German cemeteries to their fallen and there were brief ceremonies to lay wreaths their before the main Remembrance Service.
If you haven't been done so today, it doesn't make a difference what your nationality is, just remember those who, for what ever reason, lost their lives in conflict around the world.
We will remember them.
