I'm not sure how I'll handle when it's his time to go. Just the mere thought makes me tear up.

I maintain he'll outlive me. Which can have more than one interpretation lol.

He's was in perfect health according to the vet, up until the latest visit when we discovered a heart murmur. Monitoring it to see if it starts having symptoms. Hopefully none.

Another reason I'm happy with SDR is because I run two monitors and the second doesn't support HDR. So it provides a consistent look.

As for recording - really just limited to when I play games like Lethal Company with friends. Just to clip the goofs. Have a whole shitton of them.

The amount of power those screens use is peanuts compared to the drive train.

I can chill in my car with AC, screens, and charge my steam deck for hours and my battery only goes down a couple %.

My car uses 1KW in that state. That's as precise as it shows me, so I'm guessing it's rounded up. Taking it at face value, with a 65KWh battery it would take 65 hours to drain completely (I like easy math).

This is exactly why I do the dishes after a good meal. I can't relax with the thought of a sink full of dishes, they need to be handled!

What's your budget?

And yeah, Asus went downhill like half a decade ago. They used to be my goti but now I avoid them. I personally like Lenovo, but that's for their second hand business laptops that end up on eBay, so I can't speak to their consumer gaming brand.

If you don't want to disable biometric auth, familiarize yourself with your phone and see if it has lockdown mode. Apple phones and most modern Android phones support it, using it will require your password / pin for unlocks. Put it into lockdown mode for the flight.

Yup, with PIA the port is random but yes, there should be scripts out there to leverage PIAs forwarding with your torrent software. And yeah, if you were to port forward through your router that could lead to accidentally exposing your actual IP.

We (Americans) do, the rest of the world, no.

My HVAC is 25 years old and going strong. Only quirks it has is the airflow sensor needs to be blown (haha) once in the winter. Only maintenance outside of the usual I've done is replace the fan capacitor.

My water heater is about 10 years old but one of the perks of my gas utility is a water heater warranty so when it comes time to replace or repair part of the cost will be covered.

My car is a 2015 and didn't come with a cruise control lol :(.

To be fair, I can drive at and maintain a consistent speed without it, though I didn't have to often thanks to stop and go traffic 🎉.
