It’s still tolerably warm, and there are no other kettles that would be worth switching to right now. I use Firefox and if it ever popped an AI feature at me, I turned it off a long time ago and haven’t thought about it since.

They are, but that’s only for the search engine thing. Unless Google has a seat on the board.

If I go to its web interface (because everything is a web interface) and it’s down, then I know it has a problem.

I could set up monitoring, but I wouldn’t care enough to fix it until I had free time to use it either.

M.2 is just a connector, you can run SATA over M.2. But you’re right, freeing up 2.5" production for M.2 should reduce price pressure.

If it’s fanless, is it thermal throttling?
