Marv Bee joined me this week as we discussed backup solutions, with Jim considering using a Synology box to access data on Backblaze B2. Marv recommends Synology for its performance and ease of use. We also compare earbuds, with Marv finding Apple&#8217;s wired earbuds as good as Bose&#8217;s wireless ones. Finally, we discussed the cost-effectiveness of Apple&#8217;s earbuds and the benefits of having multiple sets for different locations. Thanks for listening!<br />
