my point is that the reason I moved from desktop software is that many things can (and did) happen, to make me lose my snipe. Comcast going down, latency in the connection, ebay deciding to act weird. And of course, my own machine going down for some reason.Quite so, but those will presumably also be true for whatever web service you use, plus the concern over giving it your eBay credentials. Gixen has been mentioned on DC before as a sound service, though.-wraith808 (June 19, 2016, 09:11 AM)-rjbull (June 20, 2016, 05:02 PM)
that would be a sync of your files as opposed to a proper backup (but I dunno, does OneDrive do versioning?)-tomos (June 20, 2016, 03:13 PM)
do I need that dedicated drive? can't I just specify to back up in onedrive disk directly?-kalos (June 20, 2016, 02:29 PM)
Hello Kalos,
Here's my solution:
1) I have a dedicated hard drive which I have configured as the OneDrive destination. Go here to see how to do it
2) I use backup software called Yadis which backs up my My Documents partition to the OneDrive HDD. It backs up in real time and has versioning.
3) OneDrive then backs up to my cloud storage
Hope that helps-Clive (June 19, 2016, 10:16 PM)
Did you try the Headless 4.4 No Fastboot version?-4wd (June 20, 2016, 02:04 AM)
That's the reason I purchased the one with the HDMI DIP.Wow. Talk about switches! How about I tell you that the link is www.example.com/website. It is hosted on localhost only so it isn't an actual WEB site per se.
But I open it by typing www.example.com/website into any browser. Can you narrow down the switches a bit with that info? I feel "whipped"
This is just a single page like "the home page" that the site opens to. All I need is that one page. As a manual download with Ctrl+S it is an approx 2MB MHTML file. If I could find that old Mouse Keys programmer I would just program the mouse strokes into a script to do it-questorfla (June 19, 2016, 07:10 PM)
Interesting that you're going with the 256gb ssd. Locally that is nearly 25% more expensive, and I couldn't justify that. Instead I'm going with a big, fast sd card and a Samsung T3 portable SSD. Easier to switch the use between computers which I will be doing fairly often, and still cheaper. Also bought a dock, so will see how well it works as a desktop replacement.-Dormouse (June 18, 2016, 05:23 PM)
@Wraith - looked into Gixen and decided to subscribe.
Question: have you used their desktop app? Or do you just go straight in via the website?-40hz (June 17, 2016, 09:55 PM)
I guess my comment about that is, in my opinion he shouldn't still be marketing it if he no longer supports it. I'm so dependent on it I'd be happy to buy it again to get support.-i_am_jim (June 18, 2016, 07:33 AM)
I got it just from context. It just seemed cool-wraith808 (June 16, 2016, 11:56 AM)
I tried looking it up in the Urban Dictionary. There are some alternative definitions there that may generate a laugh or two. One in particular I don't even want to paraphrase here. Let's just say I laughed out loud even though I am sitting in a library(shhhh!)-MilesAhead (June 16, 2016, 12:44 PM)

Is that your term? Or an actual term?
-wraith808 (June 16, 2016, 10:19 AM)
It's from the old expression: I feel like the one burnt cornflake on the bottom of the cereal box of life.
So it's me euphemistically trying to imply something without actually saying it. What's that Irish phrase they're currently in hot water for at the UN - Surely you know for yourself! - It's kinda like that.-Stoic Joker (June 16, 2016, 11:23 AM)
