Not yet. But if I get a 2.5 gigabit Ethernet router in the future it'll be covered. This thing is a long-term investment, I expect to keep it at least 4 years.

M4 Mac mini has arrived. Set up with Migration Assistant using a bootable clone of the M1 Mac mini as the data source. Very nice indeed. Chose 24GB memory, 1TB storage and 10 gigabit Ethernet.

No chance. Expecting it on Tuesday.

Checked the progress of my M4 Mac mini delivery. Four hours ago it had cleared customs in Hong Kong.

I was informed on Friday by the masseuse who was giving me an intense back, shoulder and neck massage that I could expect some soreness after a few days.
Not wrong. Today I could hardly walk with intense pain in my right hip and right knee. The hip pain has migrated to my lower back and the knee is OK.

Hang onto it for several years, I got the M1 three weeks before the sudden release of the M2 in Dec 2022 and it's already proving to be not necessarily up to the task re storage.

I have pre-ordered an M4 Mac mini with 24GB memory, 1TB storage and 10 Gigabit Ethernet to replace my existing M1 Mac mini that has 16GB memory, 512GB storage and Gigabit Ethernet. a friend who asyet has no Apple Silicon Mac has expressed interest in my current mini when I no longer need it. He has a 27-in Thunderbolt display to use with it.

The local grocery store is called Mamas and Papas.
I don't buy their salad because all the leaves are brown.

Tried reading one of the books taken from the library, but it’s too hard, the font is too small. Tomorrow I’ll buy a magnifying sheet from an office supply store but during the meanwhile I’ve found a set of older glasses that work better with that tiny font. Likely because my current prescription lenses are extended-range ones that have anything within arms length in focus, great for computer use. The old one are conventional multifocals with a much shorter reading zone.
