Description



Marv Bee joined me this week as we discussed backup solutions, with Jim considering using a Synology box to access data on Backblaze B2. Marv recommends Synology for its performance and ease of use. We also compare earbuds, with Marv finding Apple’s wired earbuds as good as Bose’s wireless ones. Finally, we discussed the cost-effectiveness of Apple’s earbuds and the benefits of having multiple sets for different locations. Thanks for listening!
