I have the Terramaster F8 SSD Plus with 8x4TB NVME SSDs as the drives. It's definitely not the most cost effective way to build a NAS vs spinning disks, but I wanted small and quiet, which this is. It would probably fit in a wall enclosure, so depending on budget/how badly you wanted it to fit/drive space required this would probably work as a solution.

When Turo worked it was great for me. However, in my most recent experience with Turo my reservation was cancelled by the other party while I was mid-air and I landed with no car and no recourse and had to scramble. It was miserable, bad enough that I’ve gone back to renting Teslas from Hertz (where my experience has been in contrast to other anecdotes here—pretty seamless).

I daisy chain two LG 4K displays over a single thunderbolt cable plugged in to my 14” M1 Pro MacBook Pro every day without issue.

I similarly am running openbsd as a home router under proxmox and it’s rock solid. I had more time on my hands when I set it up than I do now, but thankfully it’s without issue and just seems to always work so there isn’t really any maintenance other than point upgrades to openbsd when I remember.

Absolutely. Regardless of one’s sentiment on Apple removing the charger this should be a focus of the discussion.

It’s not a true incredulity I expressed, it’s that in the middle of it all 40 hours a week seems very distant.

As a resident in the hospital (a couple years ago) I worked 100 hours a week and there were others on the team who were putting in more hours than I was. I think the hours are similar at some law firms. Honestly I find it hard to believe people actually exist that only work 40 hours a week.

I run openbsd virtualized on proxmox and it’s fantastic and not that difficult to set up (I’m a casual tinkerer at best). I’ve got a gigabit connection and can saturate that without any significant stress on the single core that it runs on.

I would suggest that’s a feature, not a bug.

As a counter anecdote, I’m an American living in Australia, and I own and have used a toilet plunger in Australia because my Australian toilet was clogged. But that is a single occurrence in 12 years as opposed to multiple occurrences annually in the States.

I miss the escape key.

I also like that volume and brightness are both sliders—I find the gesture of tapping the volume on the Touch Bar and dragging my finger up or down in the direction I want better than pressing a button a bunch of times until I’m at my desired volume. There are other things I like about it (and others I don’t).

I think it’s ok to like aspects of the Touch Bar and dislike others—it is possible to iterate to something better by being specific in one’s critique about what is good and what isn’t rather than just tossing the whole thing out (which is personally what I’d like to see...and maybe I’m in the vocal minority here).

A bit of both

As an American living in Australia this one took me a while. Just substitute “though” for “but” and you’ll have the meaning.

“You don’t look tired.” “I feel tired but.”

For a long time I just kept waiting for the rest of the sentence. “You feel tired but....but what?”
