How many TVs do you offer?

Our Airbnb is a 4 bedroom home. We have a 65” TV in the living room. We don’t have TVs in bedrooms at home, so it never occurred to us that guests might expect it.

Nobody has left a bad review and we have a perfect 5 star rating. But we’ve now had 4 private notes suggesting more TVs out of ~40 stays.

It seems like if 10% of people are specifically asking for something, we probably ought to do it.

The issue I have is that only the master is laid out to where a television would make sense. There’s no way to put a dresser or TV stand opposite the bed in the other rooms- either we’d need to free-float them on a wall and hide cables, or the guest would be looking sideways at the screen.

How many TVs is actually the norm? And what size are you putting in your bedrooms?

How is AI jacking up HDD prices?

It’s been a couple years since I needed to add disks to my DAS enclosures. Last purchase was from ServerPartDeals in May of 2024. I paid $105 to $112 for 12TB drives.

Just went to check now and they are… $300?!?

I knew AI was screwing with GPU’s, RAM and SSD’s. I had no idea it apparently impacted old school spinning drives?

I didn’t even know they could use spinning drives for LLM’s. I assumed the access time on spinning disks would be a dealbreaker.

Am I missing something?
