      I can't stand "genius" stories written by non genius people. It's incredibly frustrating.

Did even think quite hard about how I could have been caught doing it other than by complete chance without coming up with even a remote way. Ended up not doing it, and I suspect that the whole thing may have been a slight bit on purpose, since I was in the armed forces at the time and had done a psyche test which according to one source had some unusual result.
      Most of the time the people who get picked to do jobs where there would be opportunities like that are almost always people who won't stray.

    So I work in a company that does data erasure as part of selling and scrapping secondhand electronics and I can tell you physical destruction is still very much in use, mostly because it's quick and easy to prove. We have to pay a software vendor by the drive for the three-pass overwrite method because they need to certify that it took place for compliance reasons. Because of this, we offer both methods at different prices.
    Partial data recovery off of part of a physically damaged drive may be possible, but it is going to be a very involved, expensive process.

    Alright everybody! Petition here to reques- no, demand Simon to start a new channel! Hopefully called, “Are You an Arse?”
    Format I would like to see:
    1: Viewers type out a personal story wondering if they themselves have acted like an arse, allegedly.
    2: Submissions sent to one of the writers/producers who would select the best/worst entries.
    3: Simon reads the stories blindly (as per usual).
    4: Simon renders the verdict on whether or not you are, in fact, an arse, in his opinion.
    5: Users can then post a reply to the video they’ve been called out in to either thank Simon for his glorious not guilty verdict, or publicity apologize for their flagrant misconduct.
    What do you all think? Should we try to get Simon to do this?
