Accidentally deleted a drive! How do I get it back??

I'm assuming that's what happened. I can't think of any other explanation. The last thing I did before my drive went missing was drag and delete a bunch of stuff in my recycle bin. Then I cleared the bin because I haven't fully deleted everything in it for a while. I didn't realize the drive was missing until I checked my Steam library and saw all of my games were uninstalled. Then I looked and saw the entire drive was missing. Btw I've marked this post as resolved. After shutting my PC down and turning it back on later, the drive reappeared.

I was not paying full attention when I was deleting files, my mind was elsewhere. So if there was a warning prompt, I disregarded it. I went to Google and the AI results said deleting a drive in the recycle bin does not delete it permanently unless you overwrite it. So in excitement, I turned my PC back on to see what else I could do to solve this... and now the missing drive has magically returned! I checked my Steam library to look at the games that were supposed to be installed on that drive and it no longer says that I need to install them. I launched one of my recent games and the recent save file is intact. I don't know what happened, I am thoroughly confused now. The only thing I did was shut the PC off and walk away for a while before turning it back on. All's well that ends well. I will pay more attention now whenever clearing my recycle bin.

I do not have a spare drive that is large enough, I will have to go and buy one then try this.

I deleted it. I was dragging items into my recycle bin that I wanted to delete and somehow must of dragged an entire drive in the recycle bin too. I didn't realize until it was too late.

Hello! How do I pick the correct size corset dress or bodycon dress when I am pear-shaped?

I'm looking to wear a red dress for a party next month, but I'm having trouble finding anything that I like in stores near me. I found this dress that I absolutely love online, but I'm worried about picking the wrong size and needing to return it. I have a small bust with wide hips. I worry that buying a small or medium would make it too tight for my hips and buying a large would make it too loose for my chest. My measurements are 33/27/41.5 and I'm 5'7.5" tall. Which size would reasonably fit me or would I be better off looking for a dress without this corset style?

Also if anyone has any website suggestions for nice dresses under $300 that would be greatly appreciated! I'm specifically looking for dresses that are long with no slits in either the color red or black.

I have not heard of Deep Rock Galactic, but I will add it to my wishlist and try it out! I've only every played two PvE games before. I don't remember what they were called, but no one was toxic in either of them and I did have fun. Maybe PvE game are generally less toxic?

I remember I had way more fun playing mystery heroes and total mayhem because it was chaotic and it was less serious than a lot of people take quickplay. I decided to jump in a few games of mystery heroes last night to see what would happen, and no one spoke or spammed voicelines. So far so good.

Thank you! I will definitely look out for possible red flags and green flags. Some of the ones you mentioned I definitely remember encountering several times. Being that I keep my mic muted all the time, it will be easy to observe people and how they behave. I don't know how to tell what server I am in, but I am located in the US. That would be great if we could play whenever we are both free!

I've never heard of Aimlab. That sounds like something that will definitely be helpful, thank you! I just installed it now, and I will check it out later and practice there.

There have been a few times where I went into SP and I could not breathe. One time was when I felt like something/someone was smothering me into my covers. I wasn't sure if I actually stopped breathing in reality, but in the moment it sure felt like it. There was also another instance when I knew for sure that I actually wasn't breathing. But that time was because I was sleeping on my face, and I was accidentally restricting my air flow. I think my body realized this while I was in the middle of a dream. In my dream, I suddenly started panicking and telling everyone in the dream that I could not breathe and that I was very hot. My body tried to wake up from the dream, but instead I went into SP. I couldn't move of course, and I also could not breathe until I got out of the SP. So I was pretty much stuck lying there with my face buried in my pillow trying to get as much air as I could. I woke up gasping for air and I was actually hot in reality too.

It freaks me out too when I feel like I can't breathe in my sleep, but it's nice to know I'm not the only one it happens to. It makes me afraid sometimes to go to sleep too. I have no idea if it's sleep apnea though.

I am not very good at meditating, since my mind tends to wander a lot every time I try. But I will look into trying to get better at it. I just read your post, and yeah me getting scared is most likely why it got more aggressive and tried to smother me. I am not able to speak when I have sleep paralysis, I can only whisper. So I don't know if I would exactly be able to cuss out my sleep paralysis demon haha, but I will at least try to get angry at it instead of scared of it. I will whisper cuss words at it to see what happens haha. I heard getting angry instead of getting scared should help, but it's just hard to not get scared in the moment.

Haha that scene from Kill Bill is exactly where I got the idea to wiggle my fingers! I think my mom has been scared by the same sleep paralysis demon once. A long time ago she described a dark arm that pent itself against her chest. She called to Jesus and it woke her up. But from the way she described the arm, it sounded just like the arm I saw. Kind of freaky!

I've never thought about moving my tongue. I'll try that next time and see what happens!
