That is probably the saddest grilled cheese i've ever heard of. I was enjoying the snowed in winter hellscape known as Michigan but I think I'm going to make a real grilled cheese now.

Sourdough, white cheddar, and thin slices of granny smith apple. Do it.

I wanted a crispy leftover crab rangoon. Put it in the toaster oven. Cranked that poo poo up. Something dripped onto the element. It caught fire. My wife told me to throw baking soda at it, so I did and that put the fire out. Then I threw it outside. For safety.

I've successfully fried pickles with just a saucepan and no thermometer (you use popcorn kernels). I've made rustic bread and pizza in a 550 degree oven on a big fuckoff stone that's been preheating for an hour. I've deglazed hot pans with various alcohols.

But I'm defeated by a reheated crab rangoon and a toaster oven.

I shot a wedding that took me wildly out of my usual comfort zone so that was cool. I knew it'd be different as it was an Egyptian Orthodox wedding, but I didn't expect the humongous cultural differences re: schedules and the importance of them, timing and how it's usually a thing with weddings, and sticking to plans.

I mean, it turned out to be a blast and we got some great photos but man did I have to just go with the flow and roll with it. The Dj flipped her poo poo at one point and led me away from earshot of any guests and was like "so the groom has decided to throw the entire itinerary OUT THE WINDOW so I have no idea what is happening and when. I'll try to give you forewarning but THE SCHEDULE IS NOT BEING FOLLOWED"

really they just wanted to dance to the music they brought and just rock out which they did

Of course it happens on my favorite card, a 64GB Lexxar Professional UDMA7.

File sizes are good, so it makes me think if I can figure out how to rename them it'll be alright. Windows Explorer and Irfanview haven't been able to so far.

Oh, a testing program sounds good. On Sunday I had two family sessions and out of curiosity I recorded to 2 cards -- the suspect CF card and an SD card I knew worked for safety. The CF card recorded the exact same photos as the SD card and worked perfectly. Some sort of analysis to "prove" that might be nice.

I... well, I wasn't exactly sure what the photos on the card with the funky names were of, to be honest. I've been shooting A LOT in the past few months and haven't had a lot of time to regroup myself. That plus I needed to rebuild a RAID and add more disks to my NAS so my photos are kind of all over my drives and/or my laptop. I'd have photos on cards for a while which is not how I typically work.

TestDisk/PhotoRec are actually just undelete software. I don't know if they have a test function or not. You could run them on both the CF and SD card and then checksum the files that both recover? The CF should recover perfectly since it has an intact filesystem.

They're pretty much the standard go-to when you gently caress up a filesystem. I broke the connector off an external drive and then realized that the controller wasn't running a passthrough to a standard GPT table. TestDisk managed to pin down the start of the partition and I got 100% recovery onto a separate disk, then copied it back.

I'd try reformatting it and giving it another go, but after what you saw I would never rely solely on that card ever again. Best case you squeeze another couple of months out of it, but what you just saw is a gigantic lump on the MRI of your filesystem and sooner or later that card is gonna croak. Use it for Raspberry Pi or running stuff to the grocery store to print off on their kiosk or whatnot.

Word. I realized that after googling TestDisk/PhotoRec.

There are apparently programs out there that will test flash memory. This tool writes random data to the entire capactiy of the card, then reads it back and checks for inconsistency.

Considering the potential loss of an entire wedding (or, poo poo, even just a few frames from a wedding) vs $60 for a new card, though, I don't think there's any way to restore my confidence in it.
