    Speed Weed reacted to dalekphalm in Avengers 4 VS captain marvel.   
    Captain Marvel (the film titled such) takes place in the 1990's.
     
    That movie will both be released first, and chronologically take place first.
     
    Avengers Infinity War takes place during 2018. Avengers 4 will at least start in 2018-2019, though there are unconfirmed rumours of time travel, so all bets are off if that's true.
     
    Captain Marvel comes out in theatres in March 2019, and Avengers 4 follows right after in April 2019.

    Speed Weed reacted to Lady Fitzgerald in Accidental Back-up Drive format   
    I agree in that I got the impression he used a drive installed in the computer for his backup. Backup drives should never be installed in the computer.
     
    However, better quality internal type bare drives are usually better quality external drives (most external drive manufacturers try to justify the lower quality drives in their external backup drives by claiming external drives don't need to be better since they aren't used as much). I prefer using internal type bare drives for backup drives because I can get better quality drives that way (the drives can be used in an external enclosure, a dock, used with a USB to SATA cable if the drives are 2.5", or poked into a trayless hot swap bay installed in the computer; I favor the latter two). When using multiple, bare drives for backups, you don't waste money and storage space for multiple enclosures and, in the case of 3.5" HDDs, PSUs.
    Great! I'm glad you lucked out since losing treasured photos or vital data can be tragic.
     
    I'm glad you realize the importance of backups now (it's amazing how many people don't until they lose or nearly lose their data) and are taking steps to get your data backed up. However, I suggest you have more than one backup of your data. First, even back up drives can fail. Second, if you were to ever make another mistake (we have all done it) or one backup drive failed (I've had it happen), you would have another backup to fall back on. I generally recommend that people have two backup drives for each data drive in a computer: one kept onsite and one kept offsite and the two get swapped out as often as practical to ensure both are as up to date as possible.
     
    I'm really paranoid in that I have a set of four backup drives for each data drive in my desktop computer since my data is either irreplaceable or would be very expensive to replace. The drives are bare internal type drives I plug into a bulit in hot swap bay in the computer (the machine I'm building has four of them so I can update up to four backup drives at once). I keep two of each set in a drawer at home and the other two in my safe deposit box at my credit union. I swap them out no less than once a month. This is rather extreme (not to mention expensive) for most people and just two backup drives per data drive would be plenty for most people.

    Speed Weed reacted to Rosss in How are services like lastpast or password generator apps/things secure?   
    So I did absolutely no research on this and haven't ever used one of these services/even looked at the features, so this probably belongs in off-topic..
     
    But how is a service like last-pass more secure? They preach not having the same password for multiple accounts but if someone happens to get your last pass account don't they have access to everything?
     
    Is the idea just that you only have one hub account to secure/worry about?

    Holy crap, I found my photos on Apple's iCloud service 18 hours before they were getting wiped. Downloading them all now, and I'm off to buy a proper back-up as we speak.

    After this incident, I'll be sure to get a proper, external Back-up drive.

    First of all, why do you use an internal drive as a backup? That is a bad backup practice right there. You should use an external drive for backup instead.
