I've had a very similar experience. I migrated to a new Mac using Migration Assistant and Arq no longer sees my long backup history, and is trying to back up everything anew. I was never given the option to "adopt" the old ba

The difference is that I trust Amazon far more than those other companies you mentioned. If they go out if business or even change their "unlimited" policy, you're exposed until you can get your 2TB re-uploaded to another pro

Does anyone maintain a list of sites/services that support two factor auth? I'd like to be able to go through a list and make sure I have it enabled for all services where I have an account. All the articles I've found are at

I think the fuel thing is just an inconsequential side-effect of having their aircraft based at Moffett. It's not like there is a commercial vendor selling fuel at Moffett, so of course they bought it from the only place available on t

I had this service for about two months and just cancelled it. My reasons were: 1. They weren't picking up my mail or delivering my magazines/packages with the consistency that they promised. This gradually eroded my trust the more times I

I think it's the best of both worlds. If I can have four files open side-by-side and see a reasonable slice of each, I think that's a win.

If you watch the video of the two AT&T engineers, they basically say that they just had the idea; their (unnamed) vendor actually did the work to see if it was feasible and designed the antenna.

I don't understand why you would use LaTeX to lay out a poster. It just doesn't seem like the right tool for that kind of job to me. I concede that I may be missing something though, since everyone else seems to like it.

Though I agree the timing of the request is kind of odd given the circumstances, I can say that I wouldn't be comfortable hanging up my own coat in First/Business, as the coat closet is under the purview of the FAs and not really a place fo

I think it's less about money and more about stuff like: - backup power for emergencies - allowing attempted engine restarts in the air - allowing the airplane to be self-sufficient should it be forced to land somewhere without ground equip

These batteries (or more often, ground power) are used to first start a small turbine engine in the tail (APU) which generates the compressed air used to start the main engines. Further reading: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Auxiliary_power

I have used it in SF a couple times, and it's been a poor experience every time. They only have one location. The cars are not very well cared-for. I've never been able to get out of the parking garage without a hassle. The fuel card was mi

To stretch the airplane analogy some more, it's interesting to think about how breaking contact with the ground allows you to accelerate faster, because you're no longer spending any thrust to overcome rotational friction of wheels on runwa

I tried them and the results were not great. They didn't OCR it (though I think they do now?) and the resulting PDF was pretty much unreadable on my Kindle.
