I'll vote for binge mode, watch it all when I'm ready.
In fact just yesterday (Sat) I did Killjoys last season.
non binge releases I'll wait till all eps are in (if it's a proper continuing series, Room 104 for instance I'll watch 1 at a time.)
Binge mode only minor hassle is skipping over the "last time on ..."

Binge mode major hassle: After last episode you realize you have two years to wait before your next fix ...

ahh, I treat many like a final, they drop so quickly these days - often the good ones before complete
(seems most audience like the simple stuff, hawaii 5-0, CSI:your-city-here)
hoping they finish Mr. Mercedes in S3 and Man in the High Castle in S4
- MM's loosing audience, and apparently HC is "too expensive" and S4 almost didn't happen
If it's just to fill in time there's always the marvel series': same story different hero(s)
or if you really have trouble remembering things: Gold Rush - same story, sometimes a different dog.

Awesome - I binge watched the first 3 seasons, quite enjoyed the storyline and characters.

The books are well worth reading as well - they cover the same story, pretty much but in a different order (The TV series pulled some characters forward and such like). The Expanse really shows what can be achieved when someone who cares about the story makes the TV series ...

Sad indeed.
I saw a documentary about him a few months ago called "Beware of Mr. Baker", turns out he was even more of an ornery cuss than I thought, but he did do some great work.

Funny that no pics, so I had to use my imagination. Also funny that this is mentioned as an 'instructable' for teachers.
btw, are you still traveling or back in jax? (haven't seen any pics in the 'where are you' forum.)

Yet another site that no longer works with IE for no good reason. I knew something was missing, so I retried with Chrome...and sure enough, the images load.

Maybe the site was congested

I did not get pics with IE. I had to open in Edge to see pics.

I built a Shuttle system some years ago and was more than happy with it. However, for not much more than that price you could probably get a Dell laptop (She and I each have one) that comes complete. And runs Windows 10 with no problems.

I've also used Dell laptops for over 15 years now and am happy with how my current one runs Windows 10.

I use one as a local Team Foundation Server. In the last two years, it's been rock-solid. That means no reboots (other than required by Windows updates), and no data loss.

I have two Intel NUCs, i5-based, 5th gen and 6th gen (both older than the ones you're looking at).
With RAM maxed out and a cheap SSD, they're plenty fast. I use the newer (32GB RAM/2TB SSD) to host a crapload of Linux VMs under Hyper-V, and the older one (16GB RAM/512MB SSD) is used to RDP into other machines elsewhere. That one is sitting on my desk, and is running 3 monitors, including a 4K 40" TV. The video chipset is fast enough to play a 1080p video full-screen side-by-side on each monitor independently, although it struggles with an actual 4K video (which is not an impediment for me).
Apart from the aforementioned 4K video playback, it's managed to keep up with every task I've ever tried to throw at it--although I'm no gamer either. To be fair, all "big" games nowadays require a dedicated video card, and Intel's video hardware has always been at the bottom of the list. But that doesn't matter to a non-gamer.
Bonus: I literally cannot hear it, unless the fan is spinning pretty fast - which it started doing a lot earlier this year until I blew the dust out - and I haven't heard it since. It's not the workload that got it to run hot, it was the dust accumulation.
Bottom line - I like 'em a lot.
[Edit]
Yes, both are running Win10. Intel has good drivers for them.
