I'd like it clean, or with a minimal frame, but I have been proved wrong with my ideas in the past ;-)

General Software Discussion / Re: Backup Software recommendations 2018?
« Last post by tomos on April 04, 2018, 02:40 PM »
Are you sure you don't want an online backup service?  Not only does it do most of what you want, and the user doesn't have to worry about managing "where" the files are stored; and you don't have to worry about an hd crash losing then.
-mouser (April 04, 2018, 02:34 PM)
will suggest:
they do do some work with very large files (GIS). But then most good online-backup will do block level backup (or whatever you want to call it).

just synchronises AFAIK (no versioning), but will check

(See the software draw info too.)

This guy has been hanging around out the back a couple of times lately -- it's a south facing slope, so he's getting a bit of sun (and appears to be chewing the cud). He's been there a few hours now...

General Software Discussion / Backup Software recommendations 2018?
« Last post by tomos on April 04, 2018, 11:55 AM »
Looking for 2018 recommendations (for someone else**) for backup software -- by that I mean software that can do:

  • versioning
  • zip the backed up files
  • do scheduled backups
  • ideally one that can monitor important folders for changes
  • ideally one that can do partial file backup (block level / delta)
  • I suppose ability to somehow backup online is important these days

** The user is not basic, but I was slow to recommend Syncovery, what I use, because of it being quite complicated at times (I find). But maybe the good ones have to be complicated?

So all the rest of you can read this thread on the https site? If so, what happens to the images in my signature? I don't get any notice or prompt to allow non-https content. I just get automatically redirected to the fully non-https site when reading threads.
-Deozaan (April 04, 2018, 11:24 AM)

not a problem here:
once https it stays that way (will see shortly what happens when I post**)
All your signature icons are still visible.

new video from her:

my favourite cover by her though has to be of George Harrisons "While my Guitar Gently Weeps" --

Living Room / Re: Just tried using a 4k monitor in my setup, did not like it
« Last post by tomos on April 03, 2018, 08:51 AM »
by default the resolution is set to a lower resolution like 2560 x 1440.  They end up paying extra for something that they will never use.

Not only that but when I got my 4k monitor I figured if I didn't like it I could set set the resoltution lower to something closer to what I was used to -- but the problem was the image was horribly fuzzy at lower resolutions.
-mouser (April 03, 2018, 12:38 AM)

I think changing the default resolution of a monitor is always going to be a poor second-best. (There may be exceptions out there.)

Babette's Feast (1987)
I missed the beginning, and dont necessarily agree with some of the ideas presented, but this (still) a very good film.
(The main actress Stéphane Audran died in March.)

The Ten Commandments (1956)
was surprised how good most of this epic about Moses was. They were going mad with the colour too. (There's a restored version on archive.org )

Westward the Women (1951)
'Cowboy'. Again missed the beginning; well acted, gripping, I enjoyed it.
