![]() ![]() The most significant problem that I’m running in to is related to all the automated testing that uses Google Chrome / Chromium. ![]() Verdict: turn off the lights when you leave the container. So, now when I’m swapping between Lando/DDev projects I not only stop the container, I also stop the service and all seems fine. This can be accomplished with the commands: $ ddev poweroff $ lando poweroff It seems like on the new computer, I actually need to not just “stop” my Lando and DDev containers but actually the services as well. Previously when I had run into a similar problem it was related to a Docksal issue, so while I didn’t know precisely what was going on here (because I didn’t spun up anything Docksal related) but I had a good idea. But, I noted that as I was switching between Lando and DDev on the new computer, I was getting some pretty notable local DNS issues related to ports already being used. Normally, these two systems play nicely together (as long as I’m not actively running a Lando and DDev container at the same time). As it happens right now, I’m running projects with both Lando and DDev containers. I started running into oddball issues almost immediately when I started spinning up containers for projects. Verdict: no issues with baseline setup and preparation Project Virtualization I have operated for years now under the operation / assumption that my laptop is 100% expendable and that lifestyle continues to benefit me in the rare instance where I do get a new computer. The only real work was generating new SSH keys and re-cloning repositories. The TLDR is that I spent more time downloading software / packages for my computer than I did really “setting” anything up. Homebrew continues to be a critical tool for the setup and installation of packages and I can’t imagine living without it! I’m also super thankful for things like Lastpass, PHPStorm’s Config Sync, Google Drive, and Github / Gitlab where all of my project code resides. Sure, some versions of things have changed, but by and large the installation of “all the things” went very very smoothly. The experience of setting up a new Macbook Pro hasn’t really changed at all since I wrote about it a couple of years ago. Otherwise, no significant complaints or notes! This is a beautiful computer and I’m super excited to play with it! Initial Setup and Installation So, I’ll probably tuck the mag-safe into my bag for travel and stick with the USB C I have cable managed on my desk. I was a little bummed about this until I discovered that the USB C ports still work for charging. They did stick with the USB C ports (fine, I’ve already got all those accessories) but they did re-add a dedicated HDMI port, which will be uesful and a mag-safe power port. So that’s super exciting (now I just need to start traveling again). My last Macbook Pro was a 15 inch, and this one is a 14. I’m a fan of small computers, it really helps when traveling. ![]()
