Today is the USMC's birthday please kindly remind all Marines that the purple crayons are not grape flavored.

Also tomorrow is Veterans day if I happen to not make it to the boards tomorrow happy Veterans day to all my brothers and sisters in arms. Yes even you guys in the Coast Guard. You count now that you are no longer part of the DoT

I wanna buy a new laptop. My 10 year old MacBook is showing its age. Do I buy another MacBook? Used of course, or some variety of windows laptop? If so which one? I need to run windows for work stuff, but that's easy enough on the Intel Macs.

Try looking at Swappa.com You might find something worthwhile there. Another idea, if you want to stay Mac, is apple.com look for refurbished.

What a cool concept. Unfortunately, not really suitable for my needs, as I need a discreet gpu. 3d and video work require a real gpu.
This is only the first design, I would expect more options when they get to gen 2. EGPU may be an option as well since it does thunderbolt

Is the culture they're trying to foster that drew me in
Oh, I totally get it. And the price is right too. I just need a bigger screen. And @reaver is right. dedicated graphics would be nice.

@Brunnie, I forgot that swappa did computers. I've sold a bunch of phones there over the years. The apple referb site is no place to get deals. That's for sure. haha.

I've found that CL is actually a pretty good place for MacBook deals. I did a stint a few years ago buying them on CL and flipping them on eBay. Made decent money.

So Teagan, my German shepherd / pit mix, was dubbed the groundhog killer years ago because he always gets one or two a year. Well now Anakin, Australian shepherd / pit mix, is now dubbed the field mouse hunter. He's gotten 3 in the back yard the past three days. More than fine by me. Keeps them from trying to get in the house with the season change.

Oh, i totally get it. Unfortunately eGPU is a hard pass from me. I want to be able to edit on the move, and having to lug around a large second device just doesn't cut it. My current laptop I got for free, and has dual gtx 560m cards in it. Believe it or not, it can still handle 4k footage with the gpus.

Makes me wonder if it can do 4k raw from the blackmagic cams. I might have to snag some footage from work and do a test.

For reference. I think you can figure out who the old man German shepherd / pit mix is and who the Australian shepherd / pit mix is.

Did 5.4 miles yesterday. Another 4.5 tonight. Ticker is good. Walking up hills sucks.

I made a drink to start the walk and packed a 2nd in a 20oz bottle for the back half.

/drinkin & walkin
That give's me an Idea for a new product "" Whiskey Bib ""
If you wear one while walkin/running or ANY activity that would cause you to spill your adult beverage ""Whiskey Bib "" will magically absorb the spillage : Keeping your clothes' dry and stain free !!
As an added bonus you can wring out the ""Whiskey Bib "" into a glass and Totally finish your adult beverage hydration !!

Did I mention it's machine washable ??
Med-XXXXXL : Also available "when you can just can't spill enough" the Super-lush Body suit. One size absorb's all.
