Velocio was describing his experiences.
The point is that life is not something that just happens to you, it’s something you create.

I'm judging my experience on my experience.
But of the two problems I've experienced in my first 5 months of owning the most luxurious and expensive laptop out there:
https://www.reddit.com/r/mac/comments/gp5b1z/usb_20_issues_on_new_macbook_pro_13_2020/ this is still ongoing, there are comments showing it still happens in Big Sur.
https://www.reddit.com/r/gadgets/comments/jupvdz/macos_big_sur_update_bricking_some_older_macbook/ and https://www.reddit.com/r/mac/comments/k0ad9y/big_sur_bricked_my_2020_mbp/I'm going to go out on a late-night limb here and say that to a certain extent you may have to bear some responsibility for these issues. You bought a £3k laptop and your USB 2.0 mouse didn't work with it. Why not just change your mouse? Or buy an apple trackpad and bathe in its awesomeness.
And then you install the very first version of a new OS which has been designed primarily for the Apple M1 SOC. Yes, it shouldn't brick your machine but you didn't need to upgrade, certainly not before checking if there were going to be issues.
Both Windows and Linux offer far more stable and predictable experiences with more longevity and productivity than Apple.
God knows I'm livid with Apple for their T2 chip (edit: and Bog Sur bypassing the firewall) but I can't quite agree with this; in fact it's the reason I'm still with OSX despite Apple being dicks about dropping support for Nvidia GPUs and Linux.

Sorry to hear about your experience with Apple. I think that once you're in the Apple ecosystem for a while you start to do things like avoiding x.01 releases but it sounds like you've had a horrible time.
Why don't you install Linux or Windows on it if you're happy with those OSs?

- It’s Mac OS which includes mail, contacts and calendar which are well integrated.
- Yes but it depends on the format you exported them in and what you want to do with them afterwards. If it’s just for archive there’ll no doubt be read-only viewers for .pst mailboxes.

It's hard to tell from the picture but are the small specks on the crystal or on the dial? Is the dial completely clean? Use a loupe if you have one or a magnifying glass or smth if you can
Not at all. Two events happened which were definitely unfortunate and had negative consequences on you.
Is there anything you could have done differently
when faced witheither before or after these situations which would have resulted in a different outcome for you?
