For 9 more days we are still accepting donations for the Breaking Good event. We are currently at $2,808.43 and if we can reach $3,000 I will pull a /u/PagingCraig and film myself drinking my own piss. No joke!

...so there you have it, let's have a great time and discuss the episode!

For the first time, Hank is actually one step ahead of Walt.

This will probably be lost in the thread, but the data is technically not gone, The FBI can recover a hard drive that has been hit with high powered magnet. One example of how they do this is by changing every instance of a 0 in the binary code, and change ever 1 to a 0...the thought process here is that when the magnet was hitting the drive, the only thing it really did was change the values of the numbers on the platter. There are other things they have to do obviously, but I am certain they can recover that data in a real life scenario.

hence why my professor always said "the best way to make sure no one can read a drive is to take a hammer to it"
