We were promised that USB-C would solve all our connectivity problems.

Instead, I have two USB-C ports on this laptop, only one of which is Thunderbolt, which is worse because they look identical but act different. Also apparently only some USB-C cables support Thunderbolt too.

I finally started documenting all the home automation devices and apps I use, with the main goal of everything running locally! Here's a fun list to browse through if you're looking for some holiday shopping ideas!

Last year, I finally got in the habit of catching up on my business accounting every 2 weeks. 💵 This year, I haven't even opened quickbooks since August. I really need to get back on track with that or tax season is going to be really painful.

why yes I did just plug a USB-C hard drive into a USB-A port and was confused why the computer didn't recognize it.

I blame the fact that I just got off a 14 hour flight.
