So, how are the negotiations going with the civilization growing in yours? Have you resolved the civil rights concerns yet?

No civil rights, and they never complain. I'm sure they fear the god that sends a Great Flood their way every day.

Hmm. I'm re-reading the original Dune series by Frank Herbert (currently on Dune Messiah).
Be careful you don't have a kwisatz haderach[^] in there; they can be all sorts of trouble.

Travel mug: end of the trip (depending on location, that may be a couple of days)
Work mug: when I get around to it, maybe once a week, but I drink multiple cups of coffee per day from it.

I don't have a travel mug, but I do drink out of different coffee mugs and tea cups every day. I wash them out after I finish the drink (or may be an hour later if I'm in the middle of something).

|
|
|
Right after finishing the drink.

What is a travel mug? Must be one of this American things.

When we visit my wife's mother, that is a 14 to 15 hour drive.
So, we bring insulated cups with lids in the vehicle with us.
When we stop to get fuel for the vehicle and ourselves, refill the cup.

Whenever I leave it in the kitchen sink it appears to be magically cleaned. Every time I do this it is nice and clean the following morning. I don't know if this is a special feature, perhaps of the sink - it seems to work also with various pieces of crockery such as coffee mugs that I leave there so I think it is probably a sink feature.
I mentioned this once to my wife who just gave me a very peculiar look and then stomped off for some reason!
- I would love to change the world, but they won’t give me the source code.

Related to the Magical Clothes Chute of mid 20th century homes with children in the Midwest US. I would place my dirty clothes in them and they would not only be cleaned; but they were folded and placed into the appropriate drawers

You're lucky the three letter word she stomped was "off."

The HOT coffee I add to it doesn't clean it...
I think I know why it holds 1/3rd less than it is rated for!

Clean?  Clean?
What is this thing "clean" you speak of? This is foreign to me.
(My travel mug is like my cast iron skillet. Build-up == flavour)

Tried this out, whatever they're using for the UI engine made my main desktop (second monitor) completely unresponsive -- anything dragged onto that monitor had black for its content, etc.
Uninstalled!
Between that and Acronis with it's utterly crap UI (I couldn't for the life of me figure out how to tell it, no, stupid, the backup disk is no longer on E:, it's now on H: and its stupid icons that you can't even mouse over to get some indication of what they mean ) all I want is a simple piece of software, with a STANDARD UI LOOK & FEEL  not something made for a grandma with cataracts.
[edit]I think I'm just going to copy the files and folders my 2 SSD's onto the backup drive. Seems the simplest thing to do.[/edit]

I haven't had that at all - what graphics card are you using, and how up-to-date are the drivers?
Have you told them about the problem?
Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay...

Intel HD Graphics 4600 (built into the motherboard), driver date is 9/28/2016.

I might, but I dislike the grandma UI enough to find something else.
