I see... So what are the use cases for System vs. Disk backup? Wouldn't I be always better off doing a complete Disk backup then, to make sure I don't ever lose anything?-dr_andus (May 04, 2016, 05:16 AM)

The resulting image file was 427GB. Again, if all my data is c. 250GB, what's the extra stuff?-dr_andus (May 03, 2016, 03:25 AM)
Any other alternatives?-GSz (May 03, 2016, 10:16 AM)
if the product you get is a knock-off, it is fair enough to review it as suchThe net effect of this is that all Rolex watches will have crap reviews and ratings, since there's such a high proportion of counterfeits. At this point, reviews will stop having meaning for goods that are frequently copied.-tomos (May 02, 2016, 02:36 PM)
I'm standing by my statement that you should only post reviews for the ACTUAL product posted. Anything else corrupts the information in the reviews.-CWuestefeld (May 03, 2016, 11:32 AM)
A seller sold me a fake phone case a few months back. I went through the hassle of getting my money back and wrote a negative review for the seller. Since the same product was still up for sale with only one seller, the crook, I also wrote a review for the product, saying I was sold a fake. I made it a point to mention the seller's identity. My review was rejected repeatedly till I removed the seller's identity.-nosh (May 01, 2016, 07:43 PM)

If the OP is watching video online though, I suspect they're screwed, no matter how powerful their machine is.
tbh I havent even considered Process Tamer there: instead I dream about the ideal browser that doesnt hog my cpu and gpu when watching a simple video-tomos (April 26, 2016, 04:33 PM)
^ yes, lovely drawing
page 1 reminds me of some of Tolkien's drawings-tomos (April 13, 2016, 03:56 AM)
Aw man, smack me for not seeing it myself.... Yes, that is VERY Tolkien-ish. When I was about 12, I got my hands on a hardback copy of The Hobbit with yellowing pulp pages and a forest green cloth cover, and it was full of his wonderful maps and illustrations. I have no idea where it is now, but I still remember it fondly.-Edvard (April 13, 2016, 10:03 PM)
The only way to remove this is by logging in to your Google account, placing a google-supplied html file on your website's public root dir and letting them audit the site again. That whole process kinda struck us as strange but after confirming the Blackbird 32bit exe was the cause we decided to remove it from the site and asked MajorGeeks to help us out with hosting, which they kindly agreed to. This wasn't a viable option for the future since it's a mess to maintain and looks unprofessional, so we rewrote huge parts of Blackbird and released version 0.9.88 to solve such problems.-Blackbird Dev (March 20, 2016, 08:11 AM)

Take me back to safety
I understand the risks, take me there anyway
On my birthday some years back, I bought myself a Trek SL1000 (my eldest son chipped in $200 towards the cost). After riding conventional steel tube drop handlebar bikes, the Trek was my first encounter with a modern lightweight road/racing bike with some bits (front forks and seat pillar) made of of carbon fibre. I found it extremely fast and light by comparison-IainB (October 23, 2015, 07:08 AM)
Sounds goodWas interesting to read about that guy's new bike too.
My old but quite good (and relatively light-weight) trekking bike got robbed in the woods last year. (I do have another 'bahnhof' bike -- one I can leave at the train station and not worry too much if it does get robbed or trashed). Was looking online lately at different options: I want one for the woods *and* the roads (I'm not a mountain biker though). Trekking bikes are mostly too heavy for my taste. There seems to be a new style called the cross-bike -- somewhere between a trekking bike and a road-bike in style and weight. Must try find one in a shop somewhere so I can see if it suits.-tomos (October 23, 2015, 02:46 PM)
