I heard it doesn't have a name so death can't find it, it doesn't have a home or people to care for. it's not afraid of anything, men least of all. It's fast and strong like a big wind. It can hear for a hundred miles and see a hundred miles underwater. It can hide in the shadow of a noon sun. It could be right behind you and you wouldn't know it 'til you're dead.

I hope the home button isn't in the middle of the tablet, as has been shown in all the mock ups; it makes sense on the iphone (where the thumb lands innit) but wouldn't on a tablet (on the same principle)

I'm pretty happy with iTunes match other than it has screwed up the artist list on the iPhone.

my biggest ITM complaint is that it doesnt play well w/ my ISP for some reason and gets stuck in an endless upload loop. otherwise works more or less entirely as advertised
― max, Tuesday, 18 June 2013 18:39 (Yesterday) Permalink
my theory based on nothing but my guessing is that one of the things that kills external hard-drives is shittier electronics/power supply than whats in your computer. I've had external drives "die" that I've opened up, pulled the drive out of the enclosure and stuck it in my mac and gotten a few years out of it.
― dan selzer, Tuesday, 18 June 2013 18:47 (Yesterday) Permalink
yeah it could be the usb interface in the enclosure itself
― 乒乓, Tuesday, 18 June 2013 18:51 (Yesterday) Permalink
i think this is true, the USB interfaces die before the drive itself does. which makes it the more annoying when they glue the case shut or some such idiocy

externals are fine. get one with a warranty and clone it/back it up to the cloud.

i did that multiple times. kinda impossible to back it up to the cloud when it's 3TB tho :(

― we're up all night to get (s1ocki), Tuesday, 18 June 2013 19:15 (Yesterday) Permalink
I think the main problem with external drives is that until USB3/Thunderbolt you were stuck with USB 1 or 2 which suuuuucked or you had a nice firewire drive that was less supported with each hardware revision

consumer cloud syncing of TB-scale data probably depends on symmetric 1Gbps to the home, which is available at roughly 0% of US homes. (I can get it for $120 a month if I want to.) Of course storing a TB of data in S3 costs $95 a month.
