PSA: DON'T I repeat DON'T use DD before noon.
You will end up like me and overwrite your primary data drive which you haven't backed up since over a year. This method has a 100% (1/1) success rate and will drastically decrease your will to live.
Also FUCK MONDAYS!

    @PerfectAsshole well the thing is my home automation software was Windows exclusive same for my Steam account and several other things. And I also lost all of my "spam" mail accounts so I can't reset my password for most of my accounts anymore.
    Let's hope that the recovery will be successful.
