I've used resolve for quite a few things in the past. It's an excellent editor, way more than most people will need/use in the free version, and exceeds most corporate editing requirements in the paid version.
Blackmagic Design bought it to have a video editing suite they could tie to their hardware, which I would call similar in design approach. It's inexpensive for what it does, works really well, but isn't the top of the line for broadcast.
Most corporate broadcast (think like a bank or something having its own small recording studio, rather than the major broadcasting companies) will leverage BMD at some point in their workflow.
What's funny is, I can't eat safely (allergies) at so many of these large scale chain restaurants, but the little shops by me do an incredible job. Not only do they have alternates, use separate cookware, etc, but it's also just better food.
That doesn't work for capitalism at scale, where they are eternally chasing profits by minimizing costs over everything else.
Side benefit for me is I get to support local business when I take my kids out. Just did that Friday with a small restaurant and a small batch ice cream shop, where I had a mojito + mint sorbet.
My kids are currently 5 and 2 had my vasectomy about 6 months after the second (wanted sooner but no appointments available, and it's first consult then another appointment).
Toughest thing for me was the second day. Day of I was given Valium, procedure was easy peasy. I'd call it a few days of discomfort, just plan to take it easy.
Yep... It's permanently where it's at at purchase.
Which is fine, I don't store anything on there (Jenkins automations to build, local git repo on another machine, output goes to NAS), but it's ridiculous how much the upgrades cost.
If I didn't need a build target for iOS I wouldn't have bothered with it, that's for sure.
I have an M2 mini I use for iOS builds, cheap enough for me to buy and stick in the rack to use for remote builds. I got that a year ago for $600ish iirc.
Just "not voting" is seen as apathy, disinterest. You're a voter who isn't going to bother to go vote, so why chase you? Instead, they can try and win over more of the active voters, which just means shifting right.
So you start lower on the totem pole. Presidents are (recent obvious mistakes from 2016 aside) going to be people who have been local, county, and state representatives. They matter a lot too, and it's easier to get candidates who are more oriented to your ideals.
Expecting change by effectively doing nothing... Well that's not an idea I can get behind. I'm not looking forward to a civil war, I'm not looking forward to project 2025, so I'm going to vote to prevent that.
I'm also voting for the most left leaning people on the ballot all the way from the bottom up. There are a few progressives who made it through the primary locally for me, and they are getting my vote - they have a good chance of success too, which is great.
What I'm not going to do is stick my head in the sand and say "But that's not good enough, I'll just be over here" - because it won't get good enough until it's clear they will get the votes to succeed, and with certain people in office, the opportunity for those folks to even make it into local offices will disappear.
I'm on a plan that predates the plans being effected by the price increase.
My price has been the same for years. That said, the plan I'm on was also because of an issue way, way, way back (like a decade ago), and actually being responded to by someone in the c suite after making a comment on the ordeal, who then handed me off to exec customer service to get my issue addressed.
I doubt anyone is getting that sort of response and result today, but I personally have no reason to change providers - Verizon and AT&T would be just as bad, if not worse. Verizon even tried to charge me for devices I had paid in full (and I was out of contract timing) when I switched to T-Mobile.
Piper is probably what you want for the mouse (and maybe solaar which handles unifying receiver/bolt connectivity.
As far as Nvidia goes though, that's likely to be the sticking point right now. Maybe at some point they will clean up their act, but I wouldn't hold my breathe so I wouldn't ask you to wait.
Windows 10 may be the better fit right now, and that's ok. Maybe Nvidia will release new drivers in a few weeks or months and you'll have more options, but for now I think Win10 may be the best fit for what you need.
NY Presbyterian Hospital - with no real efforts on their end to prevent the violation of thousands of records, they got a whopping fine of.... Under $5 million.
AHC - lack of risk analysis, failures in procedures and policies, etc - Just over $5 million.
Data breaches - usually around $4-5mil, the worst case being Anthem, about 80 million people effected - $16 million in fines. A record.
Criminal offenses? Yeah, plenty of those - with individuals, usually related to that information then being used for other purposes (scams, theft, etc).
But a company like Microsoft, you're going to have a hard time convincing me it's going to ruin the company. The history of HIPAA violations and their fines tell a very different story.
Illegally collected personal information from children
Price fixing
Wage theft
Discrimination
Privacy violations

There are long, long, loooooong lists of violations MS has been caught for. The penalty has always been a fine small enough that it's a cost of doing business.
The clothes are definitely different quality. Walmart also has alternate, lower quality versions of the same products. Literally from the manufacturer with a slightly different product code.
Ran into that replacing a coffee maker, interestingly enough - almost exactly the same device minus a few features, advertised with the same name, but different from the previous version as well (checked the manufacturers website).
So I would not personally say the quality is equal, but I also don't shop at them often either.
Exactly - honestly would be neat to stick on the boxes for the controllers I'm using for sensors in the garden.
May play around a bit with the design (with the help of a few graphic designer folks that I work with and would enjoy this, who can also do in minutes what would probably take me an hour or two)
