@joanna There's another I posted 5 hours ago, did you see that one? The original was a 4k video, done with the Lumia 1520, it was 443 MB, the Hyperlapse version is "just" 80 MB & irons out the twitches.
Annoyed. The non-official Flickr app that works on W10 mobile has been killed off for WP 8.1 so I can't put it onto the Lumia 1520.
Another Flickr steam train video, this time done with the Lumia 1020 camera. https://flic.kr/p/Wmj11N
Used Microsoft Hyperlapse Mobile app on the Lumia 1520 (available on Android, W10M & WP 8.1) to enhance an existing video that was 443 MB and rather shaky. The Hyperlapse version has removed the shake & shrunk the video down to 80 MB, now uploaded to Flickr. See https://flic.kr/p/XmNbQN. I overcompensated with the exposure on the day, however.
As usual. Nothing worth watching on TV. Cup of tea then bedtime. With a good book.
New Zealand's greatest export: Whittaker's Peanut Slab. A small chocolate bar filled with whole peanuts. Just enough chocolate to hold the nuts together. Magnificent!
The new iMac will have four USB 3·0 ports & two Thunderbolt 3/USB-C ports. I plan to connect three external HDs, (clone, Time Machine & general storage) plus a USB scanner, USB laser printer (although that can use Ethernet) and a USB external 2.1 channel sound card/speaker system. Only one HD will use the USB-C/Thunderbolt 3 connection via Thunderbolt 2 & FireWire 800 adaptors.
I've bought a clamp-on unpowered 4-port USB 3·0 hub that uses one rear USB port to direct four USB 3·0 ports to the front of the Mac & the Logitech 2.1 channel speaker incorporates a powered USB 2·0 hub, so I'll have no trouble with needing additional USB ports.
It's still going. I gave up on the 3-pass overwrite & settled on a one-pass arrangement.
I'm in the process of reconfiguring my home office to use the new iMac (due in about 7 days) instead of the MacBook Pro. I'll have to shift the 20-inch monitor & its desk-mounted post & swivel arm support because there's no way I'd use it as a 2nd display with a Retina display on the new Mac. In the meantime I'm using it as a 2nd display with the MacBook Air.
The iMac comes with the new(ish) Magic Mouse 2 & rechargeable keyboard. I'll give them a go but probably revert to the previous setup: A Logitech M557 Bluetooth mouse (designed to go 12 months on a pair of alkaline batteries) and the Logitech K760 Bluetooth 3-channel solar powered keyboard.
