No, we non-Prime members are going to take this as a sign that they don't want our money and buy our $25 and under purchases elsewhere, like from the many other online retailers that don't charge for shipping.

This only ensures that I will purchase many fewer things from Amazon. So yay for B&H!

I used the Elgato Video Capture Device. It comes with software. There are more expensive items which do the same thing and give a sharper picture, but unless the source is really, really bad I have found the majority of the results to be just fine. Black and white films turned out best. I digitized about 300 VHS…

Shep, it would be a lot more useful if you could post short descriptions of what the apps are/do than just the names which pretty much mean nothing unless they are already extremely well known.

I've used a different free web based wake up service for gentle revenge before.

Why can't you backup to your computer?

They've already released two patches.

Also frustrating is the horrible fluorescent green.

They may have, if customers stop using CC because of the security risks.

The subscription method is horrible, Andy. It's horrible for the users. It's extremely expensive and, in the end, thousands and thousands of dollars spent, the user no longer even owns the license to use the software. For whom is subscription based software 'awesome'?

I guess it's a good thing I already had to cancel my debit card because of fraudulent charges made by a local convenience store this week.

Like the Nexus and HTC One?

What laptops still have removable batteries?

Good to know, thanks.

With his install discs.

I haven't used Super Duper for a really long time. And I use CCC daily for backing up 4 externals and 3 computers. I'm not thrilled with the GUI of CCC but it's extremely reliable, relatively fast and can do just about any kind of duplication you can imagine. My memory is that my experience of Super Duper was that it…

25 TBs not counting flash drives or the hard drives in my G5 because they don't get used. I keep outgrowing my media storage.

I find 'the weather' really relaxing. If I'm stressed out, I seriously watch the weather channel. It kind of puts things in perspective with regards to things that are outside of one's control. Also, I love thunderstorms and so always want to know when one might arrive.

I'm addicted to Sky Motion. For a while I was checking it like every 8 minutes. I love it.

Thanks for this, Alan. Lotta great info in the article and comments. I've procrastinating dealing with my tangle of of power cords, seven of which are from external hard drives, and I think this might just be the kick in the pants I need to get my robots better secured.
