Once I was biking home over the Golden Gate bridge and I saw two Osprey VTOLs fly under the bridge, pretty close to where I was standing. It was pretty awesome.

Hobby 1: Ballroom dancing

No I'm pretty sure Strictly Ballroom is a completely accurate portrayal of ballroom dancing.

Whatever you decide for your laptop, I'm a proponent of a barebones off-site setup if you're trying for 3-2-1 backup or similar.

I use a raspberry pi 3 with a single HD (ZFS) retaining some number of daily/weekly/monthly snapshots. Daily rsync, everything over WireGuard+VPS (TailScale would work too).

Others mentioned virtualization


I have had issues with COW filesystems (btrfs), as COW does not always play nicely with VM drives (extreme fragmentation and very poor performance).

I don't know how compensation works in academic administration, but if there's any vesting going on then you could "take a pay cut" but end up making more due to previous compensation vesting.

Certainly possible for public companies, but again, unsure if that could be the case for a university president...

Anything can use it, but I think by convention it's used for http on a non-privileged port.

That...is not how most people view breaks. Especially if you're into sports, which a pretty large chunk of the world is (just a hunch, but I'm guessing you're not).

Not the "trickle down" that we were promised, but at least this trickle down is real?
