lol, rookie mistake. btw, I have a bridge to sell you, real cheap, it comes with free data backup for life, trust me ;)

Oh no, sorry for your graphics loss! For next time, might wanna look into Adobe's cloud or any other cloud service that auto-saves your progress. Illustrators and designers swear by it. Also if you're on Windows, 'File History' can cover your back for the basics at least.

Hard to believe it's 2023 and peeps still don't backup their stuff. Get with the program. Even if you've never lost data before, don't tempt fate. Welcome to the school of hard knocks!

Ack, been there! It's like a digital gut punch. Sometimes, restarting ain't so bad tho. You might write even better code this time 'cuz you learned a lot already. Try to see it as a coding reboot, not just a loss. Also: git gud with git, save ur sanity next time. Solidarity, fellow code warrior.

F in the chat for ya code mate.

Really sorry to hear about the data loss. As a precaution, I suggest making use of Version Control Systems like Git in the future; not only does it serve as backup but also tracks changes and you can revert to previous versions of your code. For graphics, consider syncing with a service like Google Drive or Dropbox. In the meantime, if the drive's not completely dead, there are some decent data recovery tools you can try like Recuva or, for more serious failures, professional data recovery might be an option, albeit pricey.

Dude, that's rough. Lost a semester's worth of coding projects once cuz I spilled soda right into my laptop. Felt like my soul left my body watching it fizzle out. Maybe try a recovery service? Could cost ya but might save some of your work. And Cloud storage is your friend from now on, trust me!
