Apple's "Time Machine" Now For Linux... Sort Of

    Please! Think about what you're saying!

    Isn't that supposed to be "seing"?

    It's not just a goofy-3d-zooming-thingy. You can zoom through space, find the image you want, then drag-n-drop items right through the goofy-3d-zooming-thingy. That makes it a cool-as-shit-goofy-3d-zooming-thingy that's also functional. BTW: tell your Mom to type "cp /mnt/backup/11-01-07/path/to/file/file ~/" and she'll probably wash your mouth out with soap! Tell her to find what she deleted and drag it to her desktop and Mommy will bake you brownies! Mmmmm...brownies!

    Half as well.

    And when I use incorrect French on a French website, you're welcome to correct me. I'd rather write correctly, thanks.
