0:00.0	This is Optimal Living Daily Episode 1317, Solving Non-existent Problems by Tynon of Tynon.com
0:07.7	and I'm Justin Mollick. Welcome back to Optimal Living Daily or OLD,
0:11.7	where I narrate blogs and books for you, the best ones I can find.
0:15.4	Today's author is Tynon, named by Tyne Magazine as having one of the best blogs.
0:20.7	So I'll get right to the post as we optimize your life.
0:23.5	Solving Non-existent Problems by Tynon of Tynon.com
0:33.6	A few minutes ago, I had a great idea. I'll set up a super backup system.
0:38.8	I'll put a 16GB SD card into my laptop and then have it automatically backup my projects and
0:44.5	photos in the background. Then I'll also set it to backup certain things to the internet and even
0:50.0	more to my external hard drive. A week ago, I had another good idea. Apparently the bugs have been

1:29.6	Each of these is a solution to a problem I don't have. I backup my data. Everything important is
1:35.6	on a backup hard drive and even if I lost it all, it wouldn't really matter. The most important
1:40.4	stuff is online. Maybe Windows isn't the best thing ever, but my computer does 100% of what I
1:46.5	want it to. I've it configured exactly how I like it, and I'm settled in. Everything I need to do
1:51.9	is effortless. And what do I need marble floors for? How's that going to make my life better? Maybe
1:58.4	LED lighting is better, but I generate more than enough power each day to meet my needs.
