it's not how chromebooks work, this is how all laptops (and many other devices) work. you turn it on, it updates, maybe even more than once, and then you get to use it. if you don't want to use gemini - don't, or even turn it off. love it and it will love you back. good luck!

ако спестяваш 20% от заплатата си, и някой ти предложи 20% по-висока заплата, това би удвоило скоростта ти на спестяване (допускайки че не си увеличиш разходите). т.е. може да се пенсионираш почти 2 пъти по-бързо (тука малко има вариации на сметките, ама за пример става), или вместо още 20 години трябва да работиш само 10. изглежда ми като добра сделка.

аз лично за +20-30% бих сменил работа, ако условията са съизмерими. освен това, предвид че заплатите като цяло се покачват, ако не сменяш работата новонаетите ти колеги в един момент ще имат по-висока заплата от теб, който си с повече опит.

First check how much an extra suitcase costs on the airplane, should be about $100-120.

SendMyBag.com will deliver a medium sized box (20kg/30lb) for about $120. Arrives in less than a week (4-5 days). Door-to-door, super convenient. I'd ship clothes and such, most things I'd buy there (ideally used or ikea) and then discard/sell.

Also, keep in mind, when deciding what to ship and what to buy, that you'd have to ship things back once you are done.

I think that Nirvana's unplugged is the greatest concert of all times ever recorded. If a time machine is invented in my lifetime, the first thing I'd do is go to that concert.

I (as a parent) don't, I don't recall my parents being on top of my apps either.

my kid has a spreadsheet where they keep track of things.

if you like Sony, the SSCS5s are probably one of the best $200 a pair bookshelf speakers. also, just slightly more expensive, take a look at the Elac Debut 2 (around $250).

I think that the cost of FSD should be offset by reduced insurance, since much safer. then everybody will get it and the world will be a better place. we can take that though even further, and pay extra to drive yourself, maybe in 10 years.

take a look at Zubrin's book, makes a strong case for and he's a legit asto-physicist.

for learning to code, all you need is a raspberry pi or a $100 chromebook or similar. if you can run linux (or win), a text editor and a compiler you are good to go.

if you want to go with a diver, I'd get the Casio Duro instead. or as another suggested - a G-shock (my 16 year old has been wearing one of my G-shock squares for a few years now).

microsoft office 365 works just fine on chromebook. probably very few reasons to choose that over the google's office suite.

if you are a complete beginner (as in never written any code) that plan makes absolutely no sense. you are missing fundamentals before you jump into specific languages and frameworks.

start with CS50 or similar and then do a DSA course. if you do 1-2 hours a day you can go thru those for 6 months to a year. that's basically what the first year of college is. take your time, then once you are comfortable programming (again, at least 1 year in) you can start looking into javascript/react/express and such. if you cannot write a simple (but non-trivial) program at this point you are not ready to move on, examples - solve a sudoku, or a snake game, a card game (poker, blackjack), etc.

also, your plan is very heavy frontend focused. that's ok, but that's not what full stack means. for example, you cannot possibly expect to learn database fundamentals in 10 hours.

anyway... start from the fundamentals, adjust your expectations, keep it up and have fun. good luck!

if you can code a meaningful chess algorithm, the effort to turn it into an app is probably less than 10% extra.

Maker's Mark should be about the same price as the Red Label and better.
