I've also been using it on a 14" M1 MacBook since launch (Oct 2021).
I'm currently at 86% battery health.
I keep it at ~80% limit normally with occasional charges to 100% for long trips, etc. I do spend a lot of time on battery though so it's charging and draining a lot, but rarely goes above 80% charge.
Thanks for posting your results, I'm curious just how much the charge limit helps battery longevity.
"[Loss of smell] is sometimes the only symptom to be reported, implying that it has a neurological basis separate from nasal congestion. As of January 2021, it is believed that these symptoms are caused by infection of sustentacular cells that support and provide nutrients to sensory neurons in the nose, rather than infection of the neurons themselves. Sustentacular cells have many Angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) receptors on their surfaces, while olfactory sensory neurons do not. Loss of smell may also be the result of inflammation in the olfactory bulb." (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Symptoms_of_COVID-19#Loss_of_s...)
> So everyone you interact with knows where you work, how much you earn, what you own, where's your house, what you buy, what groups you belong to... and they can keep tracking you forever if you tell them who you are just once.
Granted public blockchain is a lot more discoverable, but a lot of this already is public. Property ownership is public (at least in the US), credit cards sell your data, facebook knows which groups you belong to, etc.
Blockchain is a solution in search of a problem. Conventional technologies can do the same thing with far less overhead. The issue is that they're 'conventional' and not 'new/shiny/sexy'.
New doesn't always mean better, and it's often objectively and demonstrably worse than what preceded it.
I'm not defending blockchain, just pointing out that part of the example wasn't really a good one. Property ownership being something that's already completely public.
I have a public map overlay on my phone that gives me deed information for (AFAIK) every parcel I can see in the USA.
It looks like some mirrors have packages going way back (http://ftp.eu.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/), but depending on your use-case, it may be more beneficial to focus on the base system upgrades (documented in the upgrade guide) and worry about the packages later.
That many years of package changes could be troublesome to deal with, and it may be better to fast-forward to whatever the modern tooling would be.
However speaking with my manager I think the long term plan is to dump it for RHEL - too bad because I'd like it on my resume :-) Not every day you can play with OpenBSD in prod - usually it's just on my oddball computers.
What are you using them for? I feel a lot more comfortable using OpenBSD in production than Linux for the long-term (my personal opinion). I've been using it since ~3.5, and the 6 months releases have been ticking along nearly flawlessly for a long, long time.
Yes I feel like OpenBSD can be a great system for this use case, but the prior owner of this system had neglected it. Now it's still on 5.6 and who knows how much cruft has built up.
It's currently acting as a bridge system that translates 5010 X12s to 4010 and vice versa. Strangely enough the whole stack in Golang which I don't believe considers OpenBSD to be a supported platform?
That's true, although isn't the thing here that they plan for realistic worst-case scenarios, which is the scary part? There are probably lots of worse worst-case scenarios which they'll never do much preparation because they're so unlikely. War with China does not seem to be that unlikely.
Playing devil’s advocate - this was thought to be a real possibility during the Cold War, and it seems like we came pretty close a few times during that period.
There isn't even a number. It's been generally regarded as just flatly impossible using current technologies. Even a partial step towards reliable earthquake prediction would be a massive advancement.
It’s similar to how when I travel overseas, I have local currency in my account & that gets converted to local currency through an intermediary as I pay.
The intermediary usually charges a small fee. I only see local currency exit my account, and the seller only sees their local currency enter theirs.
It’s an M1 Pro MacBook that I’ve had since launch.
