  • The recent macbooks are heading back in the right direction.

    I think a lot of the complants come from wanting a portable computer/setup, and having a hub or a bunch of adapters takes away the portability.

    I think the ideal I/O for me would be;

    • Power
    • 4x USBc (displayport, high speed, etc.)
    • 1x USBA (flash drives are still mostly A, and if you have a wireless USB mouse, not needing an adapter or dealing with bluetooth is great)
    • 3.5 headphone/mic combo jack
    • Ethernet
    • HDMI, at least until more monitors have USBC inputs, although having an adapter cable isn’t too bad.

    This is where I like framework approach with the customizable IO, but I think they need to shrink the blocks to give 6-8 ports. 4 is simply not enough, with one used up for power.







  • That’s easy. Let’s assume you take home 18,000 a month. To get the couch, cut your food budget in half and skip rent for 1 month.

    Using the extra $900 to hire a moving company to get the couch in.

    Next month, you going to face late fees Again, cut the food budget in half, and use the $900 for rent.

    Repeat for matching Tiger and Panther couches.

    If your landlord complains about the late and unpaid rent, just remind them its all for the couches. They’ll understand and leave you alone. That being said, be sure to place the couches so one can be easily moved in front the door whenever you’re there.
