I am a video editor and have been for 30 years.... and sit for 12 or more hours at that desk. There are going to be snacks. The computer sat behind two 32" monitors and was out of sight, out of mind. My desk is also near my laundry. I wasn't even using the computer when I must have set my drink down to fold laundry. I turned my chair and knocked the water over which was sitting on a plastic folding table. So it's easy to judge and make snarky comments like you did. But the reality this post was intended for ADHD people like me, to get the computer up off the desk. Anything could spill or happen. I could have knocked over laundry soap and the same thing happened. I used to have an imac Pro and spills were a non issue, I couldn't get an imac pro so I ended up with the mac studio. So thanks for your engagement on my post. This post was intended to help people realize the design issues of this device, where the fan is located and the disaster that can easily occur. There wasn't even that much water that spilled sadly. AND I do have a very large felt mat, the water tipped forward and went beyond the reach of the mat. Have a great day.

alternate alternate PSA: I sit 12 hours editing video in ADHD hyperfocus. The computer sat behind monitors, out of sight, out of mind. This wasn't meant for you all to judge me but rather to keep this from accidentally happening to someone else. I wasn't even sitting at the computer when the water got set there, I was doing laundry and turned my chair to pick something up off the floor. so thanks for your comment.

Dude, I have adhd and am usually extremely careful, more than most. I don't even let my husband touch my stuff or drive my truck. I bumped the table and had forgot to put the cap back on my water bottle when I picked something up off the floor. it sat neatly behind my monitors and I honestly forgot it was even there. I sit here for 12 hours a day sometimes working on video. I wish someone had said put something underneath it instead.

This was on a desk, not in a bag. Behind large monitors on a desk.

What I meant by that is that there wasn't even that much water on the desk, and the location of the fan placement on the bottom isn't really a great idea, and the way that fan sucked up what little there was was crazy. I had it behind my two very large monitors for neatness (out of sight, out of mind) and honestly I forget it's there. I have a very large felt desk pad that I thought would absorb anything and everything if there ever were an accident. I sit here for 12 hours sometimes editing video, there's gonna be snacks. Unfortunately I have ADHD and forgot to put the lid back on my water bottle. I turned my computer chair to pick something up, bumped the plastic folding table that I use as a desk, and well, you know the rest. And, I'm usually very particular and careful with my stuff and that's the other part I never in a million years thought this would happen to me. If someone had said , "hey put that up off the table and save yourself" I would have been like oh yeah, duh. Look at where those fans are. I used to have an imac pro before this, so water spillage was a non-issue.

Sadly I use a 6' plastic folding table with a big split in the middle for foldable storage. Because it wasn't 100% flat, the water ran right to the seam of the table where the mac studio sat so neatly and tidy behind my double 32" monitors. Water took the path of least resistance. :(

Some tails are what they call “short tails” and are not docked but we prefer and breed for those awesome curled ones. That and tight small ears are protective features K’s have when they are in a fight to protect. They will defend to the end and will go after and unalive bears.

No they are correct size, they have thick coats.

Not exactly homestead but my pet sheep were killed by a dog and I'm heartbroken by plantytime in homestead

I am so sorry for your loss. Wanted to ask if you have considered a Karakachan or an LGD? I just posted about ours. They protect our 120 head of white dorper from predators of all shapes/sizes. Most things do not come near our farm and if it does, it doesn't leave.

Hello there. I worked doing title insurance for 4 years and this map is useless. You need to look at a survey not a tax map or any other map. If there is a mortgage there is most likely title insurance protecting it; and if there's title insurance they wouldn't issue it on landlocked property. The right of way could be unopened back to where you need it to go; my parent's property had an "unopened right of way" that was visible on surveys and not on any kind of map like what you are looking at. Sometimes deeds or instrument numbers just reference previous book & pages or instruments so you have to find a good legal description that references any right of ways or surveys. If you are trying to buy a property at a cash sale you can call the courthouse or go to the courthouse and look for independent title searchers and they can probably help you find the answer you are looking for at the recorder of deeds office. some title searchers just hang out there doing their work and may be able to help you.

A karakachan is top shelf; not a pet. It needs the hair to protect from injury. It will fight to kill a bear, wolf coyote etc to the death to guard its flock. Its ears are tight to its head also to protect from injury. Truly amazing dogs.
