Ran in place to various podcasts on Apple Podcasts via Apple TV. Medium bowl of oatmeal with milk, cinnamon, sliced banana; water. Researched backup solutions to replace iDrive. Chose Duplicati. Lunch: I prepared for myself a soba noodle soup partially using leftovers from a previous soba noodle soup. Installed Duplicati then Mono. Attempted to configure a backup across the home network but it offered no option for network drives even after I manually mounted one. I think it was possible but I didn't want to deal with figuring out smb pathnames especially since I have frequently encountered duplicate mount point issues in the past, so I gave up on Duplicati and uninstalled it and Mono. Weeded files. Dinner at home with Patrick: white beans with ham hock over wild rice, water, red wine. I washed dishes then did a few house chores. Afterwards we watched clips on YouTube including Zoltan Kaszas: Modern Male—very funny. Patrick baked chocolate chip cookies for himself from packaged frozen dough.
