I wish that my MBP14 was as thin as my partner’s MBA13.

Not to mention how often I long for my MBA11 with the tapered body which almost made it feel like it was floating in my lap when working from the couch.

Is it really all a function of the dollar being a reserve currency though? The UK has gone through a very similar transformation starting with Thatcher.

The cheapest price in Europe at best equaling the average price in China sounds like it just proves my point?

Energy means electricity in this case, and the EU prices are about 2-3x those paid in China AFAIK, for both residential and commercial.

I can relate. The most sadly amusing part is when I know I’m approaching something the wrong way and I still keep at it even though the voice in my head keeps telling me that it should take a different approach.

Last year I tore down the whole roof of my cabin instead of just the asbestos tiles because I had momentum, all while I kept thinking “you should really stop and consider what you are doing, this was NOT the plan”.

The voice was right and now I need to learn how to level the roof on an old Frankenstein’s monster cabin…

If you like reading sci-fi, I’d really recommend https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/We_(novel) to get some perspective on the extreme of a life where everything you do is potentially visible to any and everyone around you.
