Haha, it was a surprise for me but I really love it. Tattoo number 17.
I got:
Two wolves, two cats, one rose, one duck, one ice cream, one Pua with Heihei, eight Pokémon, one little heart and the tiger.
A Navage nasal irrigation system-
navage.com
Legitimately one of the best things I’ve ever bought. I have a deviated septum, so I often have issues with congestion and sinus infections and stuff like that. Always wake up with a stuffy nose, and it lingers throughout the day.
I started using this thing last week, and literally for the first time in years, I woke up without my nose feeling clogged. I had a cold very recently, and was dealing with some pretty bad post nasal drip along with sore throats in the morning. Within 24 hours, gone.

Another AirTag alternative that costs only 8 quid ($7). This find my compatible key tracker uses a button cell battery, just like the real AirTag.
I mean how often do you lose your keys? I've never lost a key. Am I abnormal? Same with wallets or phone.
Btw I’m using it to track my laptop 💻 as I only have a windows laptop. Not my keys 😂 windows laptop cannot be located in Find My alone.
Picked up these two from Amazon, that’s finally the 1985 title arriving on 4K. Great deal on 10 in one usb-c hub.
Volume 1 2 x 4TB SSDs RAID 1
Volume 2 8 x 16TB Seagate Ironwolf Pro RAID 5
I9 16 cpus 64 GB memory
2 x Thunderbolt 4
2 x 2.5 gigabit ethernet
QuTS hero with ZFS
This baby flies! Can finally run a Windows 11 virtual machine on my NAS with good performance.

Since we have the Raid setup above this is applicable to adding storage to your new M4/Max Macs such as that great 14”/16” MBP or M4 Pro Mac Mini.
The pair costs $389 on Amazon. That’s a 4TB WD-Black 850X SSD (not heatsink) NVME. The 40 Gb/s Enclosure is a no tools at $89. They sell one for $117 with fan, but reviews state it gets noisy after awhile. So avoid. Prices on NVME for 2GB, 4GB, 8GB is $148, $280, $580. I thought 4GB is great for greatly enlarging storage. Yes I just bought this for a 14” M4 Pro MBP with 16/20/24 with 1 TB SSD. Should yield 3,000 read writes.

Scored a Pixel 8 on Amazon for $399. It arrived today and it is being loaded with GrapheneOS right now. It'll be my new daily driver replacing the Pixel 7.
Having spent yesterday looking for a bunch of keys, searching the place they are normally kept numerous times before moving on to search elsewhere, then discovering they were actually in their normal place after all, I decided to make a purchase..

These came in yesterday and I watched Blade Runner 2049. Might watch Space Jam tonight.
Technically got these last Saturday when they dropped but they just arrived today.
I got a AirPods case that also includes a 3-in-1 iPhone port cleaning brush and crevice cleaning pick as a bonus. Now I have a few cases for my AirPods to match my Apple Watch bands. I still need a red case for my iPhone 15 Pro to complete the setup !
Bought the MacBook Pro 2020 intel 10th gen back when it came out, smashed the screen the other day on a trip and bought an open box MacBook Air m2 16gb 512 SSD for 712 dollars. It did not come with anything other than the laptop but this was a hell of a deal that I couldn't pass up...way faster than intel

Sounds good. I really enjoy my MacBook Air m1.
Just arrived. Nostalgia got in my eye...
