@atpfm I only listen to ATP while swimming since it's my top podcast. Anyway yesterday I had to go swimming twice cuz Marcos Mac mini story was too good to stop in the middle. It's funny how the end result "I own 40 base config Mac minis" is so ridiculous but if you listen to the podcast every single step is completly rational.

ATP HOF for me for sure.

@siracusa you should consider getting a dedicated machine for your Claude projects. I have a 25$ dedicated one with 240gb ssd + 2tb hdd and 24gb ram + 5 ipv4 and unlimited bandwidth. Whenever I want a new project I just put it on a website.com/proj and use same login code I've already written.

It's amazing, can use sqlite for DB, storing and serving images from disk etc for super low price. And since it just runs linux I have no issues with functionality

@atpfm loved the section on how Casey is trying to set up a way to watch his football games.

But I think Marco was missing two crucial things when you do something like this

1. The joy of getting something so weird and unique running for youself

2. (Very important) sticking it to the man!! The joy of telling then to go screw themselves.

@atpfm John was so wrong about CDs, it's clearly an S tier. Everything bad about then can be said about SSD.

Anyway in honor of @marcoarment holding the line and not letting John have his format in S-tier, I made a donation to Saint Jude. Thank you Marco, you denying him made it very satisfying.

(And the crazy thing is I usually AGREE with John, how could he be this wrong).

@atpfm @caseyliss @marcoarment @siracusa While I might agree this is not the best ipod, it's definitely the one that's furthest away from the correct tier in your rankings. As protest I have decided to purchase one while traveling in Japan.
