Create a backup and wipe the SSD before leaving with Apple.

Ok, can I see your credit card statements for the last 5 years? Can I listen to all of your phone conversations? Can I watch you shower and use the bathroom? I mean, you sound like an average person with nothing to hide...../s

What if a trade-off was that your Echo was actively recording and indexing every single word you've said within its range?

To each, their own. In my case, the ease of use was worth every penny. If I take my hourly rate and apply that to how long I spent trying to setup a controller on a raspberry pi, then I could’ve bought 2 or 3 CloudKeys.

What you’re looking for is the CloudKey. It is the local Controller and can be accessed via “the Cloud” if needed, but not mandatory. I tried running the Java controller on my Mac, it worked but sucked. Having an independent dedicated piece of hardware is worth every penny IMO.

Bonus: no fan noise, ever.

Apps: Pythonista Working Copy (git client, I use BitBucket) Blink (ssh and a few extras)

Honda. New or "CPO" certified pre-owned. Spend the money up front for new or CPO, save the hassle later of buying used and the previous owner never changing the oil. All of my (3) Honda's have never required anything more than gas and maintenance, brake pads, tires, etc.

The regular Macbook, aka "Macbook Adorable". Yes, 8GB RAM, but..NVME storage, awesome little machine. I would keep it in OS X since Linux may not take full advantage of the screen. Linux definetely won't be able to pull of the per-application DPI scaling that OS X does.

"You probably build websites and think your shit is special. You think your 13 megabyte parallax-ative home page is going to get you some fucking Awwward banner you can glue to the top corner of your site. You think your 40-pound jQuery file and 83 polyfills give IE7 a boner because it finally has box-shadow. Wrong, motherfucker. Let me describe your perfect-ass website:"

"Apple's refusal to support my chosen development platform means that Apple is holding back the entire web" ...really?

If memory serves me right, Warp speeds are x^3 faster for each step. Warp 1 is 3x faster than light, Warp 2 is 27x faster, etc

Half-Life 2, immersive storyline with good pacing, action/tension and puzzle/problem solving.
