I wear mine to sleep and that's where I get tremendous value out of it! I have small kids who are up one or more times overnight, and it's the first thing I check - is it midnight? Closer to 4am? Helps me make immediate decisions about how to handle the situation.

This is so rad! Here's a photo of me making a 1.2Ghz FM contact 244km away from the summit of a 14er to the summit of another 14er here in Colorado. That particular band is very line-of-sight, with not much propagation or reflections like even 2m SSB or the HF bands. This is a very fun tool that I can't wait to explore more!

Seconding fastmail.

I have a catch-all and can reply from any address I please. If I reply from an email sent to [email protected] it even auto populates the "from" address for me with "retailer", or I can choose to reply from one of my named accounts. It's really slick.

I've been pretty happy with Betterment.

The Coleco Adam was my first computer. I was too young to appreciate it other than the hours spent playing _Pitfall_, but those are fond memories indeed.

Not OP but I have the Anker 3-in-1 Cube and it was $150 when I bought it a year or two ago. It charges a phone, watch, and airpods at the same time, and sparks joy for me.

I'm a longtime rock climber and climbed a tower professionally back in another life. With most things, it's practice with the gear that builds trust in your system. I can do most anything at a height these days because I know that I'm safe; it lets me push that lizard brain feeling away. I similarly experienced this learning to SCUBA dive a few years ago - it's horrifying! But the more time spent doing the thing, practicing the systems, failure modes, etc... let me relax and enjoy the fish rather than freaking out that I'm 70' underwater.

With a robust used market, as well. I laughed at the battery life goals for this - the inreach mini I use lasts _days_.

The NYT did kick this off with Snow Fall and it won a Pulitzer the following year.

... but it is back-uppable.

My wife and I went to Kauai and specifically rented a Jeep so we could take it on some moderate trails to see waterfalls and whatnot. We were somewhat dismayed when we arrived and found we had been "upgraded" to a BMW X5 and there were no actual off-road vehicles available from the company. It was a nice car, for sure, but not what we had wanted.

I believe this post covers the most common use case of Twitch, which is live streaming. You don't want to be a minute behind the video when chat is live.

I run Sway and I can set a 2x scale per output easily. Not sure about other WMs.
