Nope: take too long. I normally use a distributed physical backup with a Time Machine & a clone stored at a different location & backed up midweek, with the kept-at-home drives backed up on weekends. that way I should never be more than 4 days out of date, that's acceptable.

8.5 GB copied so far to a clone on a Thunderbolt HD, 5.9 GB of 16.8 GB copied to Time Machine on a USB 3.0 HD.

Then, of course, you have my situation: almost the same timezone as but here it's Summer.

Been almost a month since I last backed up this MBA to any of the 'regular' external HDs. A bit slack. That's two clones & two Time Machine setups. Rectifying now.

No need to invent a name. Try Latte or Flat White.

In Dec 2014 I paid $13 for a particular iOS app. Today that same app is on sale at a 50% discount for $15.

Meanwhile on ADN: James Cameron says he will work on Terminator again in 2019. I think he means he will build one and send it back to prevent Trump's win.

Apparently he has a history of violence & drug abuse. Earlier in the day he's stabbed his brother in the head & stomach, leaving him for dead and when involved in a police chase, may have assumed he was up for murder. Unlike four of his pedestrian victims his brother survived.

Arseholes like that give animals a bad name.

Neat. My old enamel coffee pot (which now leaks) when used on the induction cooktop boiled two litres of water in 7½ minutes. Its replacement, a traditional enamel kettle boils 2.2 litres of water in 4½ minutes. The newer pot has a base of approximately twice the surface area.
