looks like Arq just Mac for now.

I may take the laptop back to Costco and get the other one. I want it mainly for programming/coding, so don't really need the storage for anything, and will be backing up code externally.

"Arq automatically backs up all your Macs and PCs to your own cloud account." - Beryllium Jan 16, 20:25 10
- But if I have purchased cloud storage somewhere, wouldn't i already get that? - JaxSean Jan 16, 20:32 8
  - I have more data than dropbox allows me to store, so I use Amazon S3. It does not have a dropbox-style interface, it is purely raw storage. - Beryllium Jan 16, 20:35 7
    - got it. thanks. - JaxSean Jan 16, 20:42 5
      - The should be a function lock which will invert those keys back around -- nm - Karl_S Jan 17, 03:59
      - There's usually a software setting to invert that. -- nm - Beryllium Jan 16, 20:52 3
        
        F5 ... that's refresh, right? Technically not necessary on SlackerTalk. Just press the period key (.). -- nm - Beryllium Jan 16, 20:53 2
        
        more for running sql -- nm - JaxSean Jan 16, 21:23 1
        
        Oh, fair point. I should use that more when I run my IDE tests ... usually I just use the mouse. -- nm - Beryllium Jan 16, 21:30
    - Of course, I should also entertain the theory that it's not the right fit. -- nm - Beryllium Jan 16, 20:38
- ^-- this is for Arq Backup. Arq Cloud Backup has its own storage. -- nm - Beryllium Jan 16, 20:26
