    The warranty is gone. It’s run out. Don’t be surprised by ANYTHING that starts to act up, and if you have decent medical support, address them with your doc. Knees grinding? reading small text / focusing on street signs? get your optical script updated. And sometime in the next decade, get mentally ready to get a colonoscopy.

    The warranty is gone, now it’s time for you to keep an eye on all the systems and plan for the long road ahead and the hard times to come. Good luck.

      I find exercise and meditation is really valuable. So much of life distracts now and this computer in my hand doesn’t help.

      Pay attention to ear and nose hairs. They get out of control. If you already wear glasses don’t forget to put them on in the bathroom and pluck away the crazy ones. I once found a 1" long ear hair that was hiding. Still makes me shiver.

        I’ve had to recently start checking for the hair growing from my ears when I trim my beard. Definitely a change in mentality. I not only check that but random hair paths growing on my arms or other random parts of my body.

      So, basically, if you live in the US, get ready for excessive medical bills or begin the search for a way to move to another developed country if you want to survive financially.
