Mar 20, 2016 · 1 minute read2016: where I boot a Linux VM with VirtualBox on MacOS X with a USB passthrough driver so I can hook up a EXT3-formatted HDD and read the data from it, copying to a network share which is back on MacOS X, but actually a mount point to a USB 3.0 pocket drive.
The most impressive part of all the above is that it all works. Although I may need 2 weeks to copy 2Tb of information to the new drive.
I was planning on spending the weekend working on algorithms, digging into Spark 2.0, and being productive. But I watched How To Steal A Million instead and I think I made the right decision.
Oh, also: chamber vacuum sealer-enhanced cookie dough is now a thing.
