Similarly, I have giant list of ideas from the last 15 years that I’m now easily able to try or build out in ways I couldn’t before

Even engineers like doing it sometimes. The old telephone system was so hackable because of in band signaling.

I didn’t die of pneumonia as a kid so that’s something.

That’s mostly normal and fine though. For example my parents are retired and spouse takes care of our kid.

I assume there are competitors (permatex?) but I’ve never actually thought any other brand of thread locker

I can share plex with my friends and family easily. Your solution sounds good but it’s just too hard for most people.

There are plex client apps for most tvs and boxes, even the really cheap bad ones, and it all just kinda works.

I'd still prefer a more reliable EV to a less reliable one. Not too many good options for a EV minivan in the US (I'll never buy a Chrysler product, and I don't really want a VW).

MCP is great for docs and stuff, also saves tokens and reduces errors if you have something complicated you're abstracting over

- agents have old/inaccurate knowledge and it's nice to have up to date docs: https://awslabs.github.io/mcp/servers/aws-documentation-mcp-...

- geting agents to do apple builds and stuff is much easier with: https://github.com/getsentry/XcodeBuildMCP

- also for searching stuff like pdfs/epubs it's nice to have a place that's easy/fast for an agent to go to: https://github.com/nburns/doc-search-mcp

none of these strictly requrie mcp, but it is still a useful abstraction/shared convention

Plenty of PC games, the linux distros that run steam are great too!
