also worthy of note is compact flash's similarity to IDE - converters are cheapish...
Syba Dual Compact Flash CF to 44 Pin IDE/PATA 2.5" Adapter Enclosure, Black SD-ADA45006 https://a.co/d/fphqBfK
check if your hard drive is the 80-pin parallel ATA type or the 44-pin stuff - above is 44 pin. also check drive height to make sure it fits - I had (from memory) 19mm and 12mm high ide drives for laptops
@kiteless not got an iso, but have some random experience of having to do the olde drivers hunt a few times...

@Wildheart_Baby that is a question we only suspect the answer to based on his behaviour around kids later in life :(
I am still marveling at the statement from the FBI special agent investigating the US/Canada border crossing explosion:
“We feel, at this point, this might be just something that occurred.”
I can see myself using this in future:
BOSS: Why did you send hatemail to our 60 most important customers?
ME: We feel, at this point …
or
PARTNER: Did you just eat an entire cheesecake by yourself? What were you thinking?
ME: We feel, at this point …
Just had a thoroughly dystopian online chat with a computer at HMRC where it failed to even offer me basic information on the correct topic, despite me telling them what the topic was in a very succinct manner.
It wouldn't have helped, as I've already read that, but it would have at least felt like it was potentially achieving something.
Fuck this future, I want my jet pack.
I've had several relatives pass in Macmillan homes, so I joined the Macmillan Ball committee to help with their biggest fundraising event. We’ve some great items in our silent action tonight on which ends at 10.30pm. Bid away! https://www.themacmillanball.com/lite-ui/?controller=lots&category=All%20Lots

Earlier on today I mentioned a Sandwich Gang & it kind of rattled round my head a bit.
I finished work & thought "Oh, I could make a badge for the Sandwich Club" (I'd already forgotten that it was meant to be gang).
Then I got distracted by the fact you can get something called a club sandwich & how I've never known what that is (now investigated, basically a fancy BLT).
Anyhow.
Eventually I gave a sandwich a club.
Still no badge. My bad.
The very best thing about being fire folk is that you can toast marshmallows whenever you want.
100% of fact.
And the sarcasm will be so sharp, you'll bleed.
