*paging sfogate*

hello box, just dropping in for a quick question... mwg25 is currently at CLE, and her flight to DCA was canceled... she has been rebooked on 5886, which appears to be sold out. any word on her chances of a bump?

thanks :)

Happy Birfday.

The last time I got an apology voucher from UA, it was $150 for getting me home an hour earlier than planned. :-: ^

I don't think she slept at all last night, so odds are the CO crystal ball is not unlike your beloved's flight...down for maintenance.

ETA: PDA site says 4 on standby.

Hartmann,

Saw your LR post on Twitter last night - get your questions answered?

Kind of. I've got 4GB of photos on a stick and have a 20GB library already on my computer. I'm quickly running out of space on my computer's harddrive.

I'm wondering if it's better for me to archive old photos, pulling them off of my computer's HD and moving them to an external (which would be backed up off-site).

Danka!

Not a bad idea. LR doesn't really care where you put the photos, and as long as you're just paging through cached thumbnails, the drive doesn't even need to be available. The catalog itself has to be local to your machine (whether on an internal drive or an external drive via USB/FW/eSATA), but images themselves don't.

My setup is slightly more extreme - I import the photos into LR on my desktop, with the original copy of the image on a 1TB drive in there (my photos take up about 150-200GB, I think - several years of heavy RAW shooting + no culling). The photos folder on that 1TB drive is automatically synced to my NAS for local backup (and also easy access from my Macbook). I periodically do an offsite backup above and beyond that - I keep an extra external HDD stashed in my desk at work and bring it home every month or two.

Edit: Hey, post :-: 3,333 :-:

CO just posted pics of the :rolleyes:v travel class on :rolleyes:book.

There's nothing there landside.

Does she have a confirmed seat? If not she might be SOL.

You rang?

Sorry, the flight is not overbooked, just packed to the gills.

The only way she would get a bump is if someone shows up that was holding a confirmed reservation that was canceled in error.

Wow! sfogate/bag comes through again! ^

When J.Edward and vouchers are involved, you know there's lots to be learned about exploiting the system.

Thank you.

I just happened to sign on and see my page. Doesn't always work that way.
