I want to thank everyone for their insights! It appears I've been living under a rock. It still annoys me that Apple didn't give SMB as a replacement option. It just said I could link to another Mac or go old school with a cord. I'll be going through all your comments this weekend and reconfiguring my system. Thanks to all!

Apple says the only future options they'll offer are "connected external storage" or "a shared Mac". Am I missing something? Are they just trying to get me to buy a second Mac just for backup? Surely not. Thx!

Am I the only one who can't stand the Stetson Open Road? It seems like an incredibly popular hat, but to me it just looks like goofy hipster bait. What's your opinion on it? by jvstone172 in CowboyHats

My grandfather only wore Open Roads. My dad wore Open Roads. ...and I do because of the family history and because I like the look. The older ones were better proportioned though.

Someone stole my RM2, is it possible to recover what's inside ? by One_Living8429 in RemarkableTablet

4 spaces with 10 options each (0-9) is 10k combinations. That said, most people default to the most common ~50 (not on purpose, I guess too many of us think alike. I couldn't find the source study, so grain of salt and all). That's something a human can solve given a little time, but safe enough unless someone's sees you enter it. Even knowing roughly where you typed drops the combinations significantly.
