The Problem With Procrastination...

AKA the problem with photos...

....is that I'm now backing up 64,366 of them to a USB drive. A LOT of those are pictures from eBay listings which I intermittently try to delete once the items have been sold - I think the last time I did this I was up to roughly the 400th directory out of nearly 3000. I can't just delete the lot because there are family photos in there too, and other pictures that I want to keep, while selective deletion takes a lot of time. It's easier just to copy the lot and putting them onto the new computer. I am, in other words, solving this problem by not solving it, and postponing the next round of deletion indefinitely.

Good thing the new computer has a 1TB SSD and 2TB HD!

Windows Worries 2

Solved my initial lot of worries, as mentioned in last night's post:

Word processing etc - Libre Office seems to meet my needs well enough

Corel Draw replacement - Again, Libre Office seems to work well enough

Adobe Acrobat - Installed without problems and hopefully will work

Scanner - Also installed without problems, if anything seems better than it was on Windows 10

Now the exciting new problem... My Omnipage Pro 15 OCR software install couldn't happen, because I've lost the install serial number somewhere in the last decade or so. Also, I wasn't a huge fan of its user interface. Can anyone point me at a good alternative that won't break the bank? SimpleOCR is apparently free but has a clunky user interface, anyone got any good alternatives?

Doctor Who

OK - did not see most of that coming...

Really not sure about the New Doctor or how they'll explain it, but good fun anyway. Goodish explanation for the bone monsters, a good resolution for the babies, and leaves me wanting more.
