LawfareOn Friday evening, we had no idea if Kevin McCarthy was going to be elected speaker or not, so Lawfare editor-in-chief Benjamin Wittes sat down with Brookings senior fellow and Lawfare senior editor Molly Reynolds to talk: why it actually matters if you have a Speaker of the House, how long the House of Representatives can go without one before the govt falls apart, and the consequences of the compromises McCarthy made.

The Lawfare Podcast: Burning Down the House with Molly Reynolds
On Friday evening, we had no idea if Kevin McCarthy was going to be elected speaker or not, so Lawfare editor-in-chief Benjamin Wittes sat down with Brookings senior fellow and Lawfare senior editor Molly Reynolds to talk through the options. They talked about why it actually matters if you have a Speaker of the House, how long the House of Representatives can go without one before the government falls apart, and the consequences of the compromises Kevin McCarthy made.
Adam ConoverHome Plex server update / Q: I have decided affirmatively to go the Mac Mini route. My preference is to make use of old hardware, so I'm eyeing the 2014 i5 with an SSD, which OWC i selling for < $200. Will this be enough horsepower to run Plex and occasionally transcode? I plan to only store 1080p media, and I'd like to give access to a few friends so they can enjoy my collection. Will the i5 do the job or should I just get an M1 Mini now so I don't outgrow it too soon? https://eshop.macsales.com/configure-my-mac/UAEG2FS3XX2XXXA
