BangersInMyKnickers posted:well yeah, its heavily dependent on how big your selection is. if you're only backing up the same limited folder selection as onedrive its going to be about the same time but if you're pushing your entire system over a dsl line the initial sync will take forever. sync your user profile with appdata\local and local low excluded, probably exclude the downloads folder, maybe exclude movies or other media files you don't really care about as well. that will get you most of what you want. then have a secondary backup drive or nas as your secondary backup location to send the entire system to so you can do a full restore yes. but. now I use a time capsule and intermittently vopy errything to an offline disk suits me just fine

Luigi Thirty posted:people will pay for those too. some p3 shitbox running 98se went for over a hundred recently yeah mostly because they tend to use significantly less power and often use parts that are still manufactured somewhat. like how the 486 I got for free recently, turns out that the type of RAM it uses is still being manufactured at large scale in the us.

Blugh, I hate when I'm indecisive about something, it gnaws at me. In the market for a mobile full-fat tablet (already have an ipad) to do photo process / retouch and sketch work on; two main contenders are: Cintiq Companion: http://uk.shop.wacom.eu/products/others/cintiq-companion/567 Surface Pro 3: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Microsoft-Surface-Pro-512GB-Intel/dp/B00KHR51D2/ Processing Comparison: http://browser.primatelabs.com/geekbench3/compare/1133827?baseline=317830 Next to nothing in the price, but the Surface has a nicer hi-res screen and a slight nose ahead in processor power, and the Cintiq has the better screen/pen digitiser and real buttons on the bezel for CTRL and ALT when photoshopping (which is actually a big thing)... Better battery on the Surface, more solid feel (and weight) with the Cintiq. Maybe I'll wait for the Companion 2 to be announced!

bullshit about cancelling /serious like/ get your way to retentions then say "it's just far too high and 'theres deals on your web page that it offered to ME why would you let ME have them? if they get shown to me that is you offering them to me!'"

i mean if you have to. but generally any CSR should be able to get you fixed up significantly by saying that their website said the offers were for you. i mean, it does.
