The most bad-ass use of Time Machine yet
I find this sweet!
The most bad-ass use of Time Machine yet: “
Faithful Macenstein reader Mike Solomon over at The Cleverist has has found a pretty bad-ass way to use Time Machine, and I suggest Apple use Mike in an upcoming Time Machine commercial – that is, if they think they can tame this wild renegade!
‘This weekend I needed to edit some video in a pinch. The project was going to take about 20 gigs of hard drive space but I was away from my external hard drive and only had about 10 gigs of free space on my laptop. So what did I do? I did what any Mac user would do - I deleted my entire iTunes music folder. It cleared up about 65 gigs of space, and I was able to do edit the video and all was well. Then when I got back home I restored all the files with Time Machine, which had automatically backed everything up. That’s how badass I am.’
Wow, Mike, that’s taking a leap of faith that only the baddest of of the bad-ass Apple faithful would dare make, and we salute you!
Of course, a real bad-ass never backs up his data, or even HAS data, but as far as a tech/geeky story goes, this is as bad-ass as it gets. In fact, the only way it could have been more bad-ass might have been if he were smoking cigarettes at the time. But I hope that wasn’t the case, as it might hurt that pending endorsement deal with Apple. Thanks Mike!
