I could be wrong but I think the (..+?) portion will either remove a dud or replenish the allowance.

Thanks. Bookmarking for future reference.

Deploy database? You mean something like SQL?

1. What are basic Linux permissions?
2. What does chmod 777 do?

True. I think I’ll switch to Arch proper soon.

Didn’t know if it was supported but this clears it up. Thanks.

Do I have to use PC receiver or is that unnecessary?

No problem.

HOLY SHIT! YES! Thank you so much! I thought that drive was a goner. I was on the verge of just buying a new SSD. You just saved me a couple hundred bucks. Thank you once again!

I went ahead tried this but got an error when using makepkg -si:/home/[username]/ntfsprogs-ntfs3/PKGBUILD: line 45: autoreconf: command not found ==> ERROR: A failure occurred in build(). Aborting...

I went to file in question and line 45 says this: autoreconf -vfi

That’s the thing: I don’t have Windows installed on that SSD. I double checked.

This fiasco demonstrates why open source is the superior software model.

Jail time for Bibi!

If there’s one I’ve learned after being on the internet for 17 years, it’s this; you can throw an entire mountain of evidence at a conspiracy theorist and they STILL won’t believe you.
