I recently with in the last few years bought a Macbook Air 15 inch Laptop because I was having some software problems (because of it's age) with my Macbook Pro 15 inch 2015 model. Before that I still own a 2009 Macbook pro laptop that has kind of outdated itself software wise. However, a friend of mine who is very economical by nature still uses his 2009 Macbook Pro today and refuses to buy another one. So, somehow he has figured out a way to still use his Macbook pro 15 inch screen laptop still today.
However, this summer it has been very healing for me somehow after my wife's biological Mom passed away and before that last November my wife had her last Knee replaced so now she has all new knees and hips since 2014 when she started with her right knee. It's a long painful process. However, in November she got Covid within 3 days of her knee replacement which was really bad to have both happening at the same time.
So, late at night when my wife is asleep and often I'm not I can go somewhere and plug into my laptop and watch Netflix (a movie or a series) even in a hotel room bathroom late at night with a headset so I don't wake my wife up. But I usually can get to sleep by 2 am to 3 am most nights and other nights if I'm tired enough I can go to sleep at around 10:30pm like my wife usually does (but not always).
So, Netflix has been a good companion and also blogging late at night has also been useful to me too.
I'm very concerned about the world right now because it is really crazy a lot in a similar way to the late 1930s or early 1940s when World War II began. So, I worry about millions dying soon worldwide and the genocide of the people in Gaza and the Genocide of Russia of Ukrainian civilians both is very upsetting in a precedent setting sense with missiles and drones being used instead of people in planes often to kill everyone through these present Genocides.
So, both UKraine (regarding Europe) and Gaza (regarding Israel and Gaza) are likely never ending wars the way they presently are being fought by everyone involved.
It's not longer unthinkable of having drones and missiles raining down on London or Germany or New York City or Washington DC like it once was.
We live in very bad and difficult times and the way people are behaving worldwide things could get a lot worse than they presently are.
So, though I find I can't watch the news as much (partly because I'm 77 now) I find comfort often in watching movies and series on netflix even when I'm traveling late at night wherever I am with earphones so my wife can sleep when I can't for one reason or another.
Also, I have mentioned this trick before but I don't almost ever shut down my Macbook AIR ever, this way my Netflix is up and the computer is just asleep when I travel. The reason you can do this is there are no longer any moving parts in the hard drives so this can work now if this is what you want to do like I do.
It's a good trick if it works for you to always have your computer asleep and you don't ever have to log onto Netflix or anything else because you just open your laptop and sign into it and you are there already.
