Hands on with the Mac Mini M4, Electrical Gadgets and Outdoor Lighting Project – HGG629

Just me this week! I explore the latest home tech gadgets while reflecting on my daughter’s recent car accident (she is okay) and our vehicle search to replace the 2006 Honda. I share my experience with the Mac Mini M4, discussing its setup and design changes. I also detail my outdoor lighting enhancement projects and essential tools for home maintenance. Finally, I provide insights on Black Friday tech pricing and encourage listeners to share their finds in our Discord community. Join me next week for updates and a special discussion with Sammie. Thanks for listening!
