I was pleasantly surprised at the speed and power of my second hand M1 Pro 32GB running Asahi & Qwen3:32B. It does all I need, and I dont mind the reading pace output, although I'd be tempted by M2 Ultra if the secondhand market hadn't also exploded with the recent RAM market manipulations.

Anyway, I'm on a mission to have no subscriptions in the New Year. Plus it feels wrong to be contributing towards my own irrelevance (GAI).
