Bit odd how the image in the article above seems to show two cables, but a picture circulating of the opened enclosure only show a USB-C port, suggesting it's bus-powered…

To me the "second cable" looks like a reflection that has been enhanced badly. So I would say single cable

I’m going to miss watching the one reasonable show on Prime every 18 months

The UHD stream quality seems garbage compared with AppleTV+ and Disney+. I won’t miss not watching the service at all. It’s just frustrating that it cannot be unbundled from the delivery service

This is just a stealth price increase for profit. The “ increase investment in content” will take 2-3 years to manifest by which time I will be outraged at something else

Apple will have to switch to RISC before it becomes mainstream if it has to retain it's leadership in CPUs. And that's likely to happen before "decades". 

I cannot tell if this is sarcasm or not?

A fight were everyone is a loser!

Except for the kernel extension that is required!

On Apple silicon this further involves launching the security startup utility and downgrading security to permit the kernel installation to be loaded

DROBOs do not need special drivers for use.  They present themselves as typical external drive.

The DROBO software is for initial configuration, status, and configuration changes (adding/changing virtual volumes, changing between single/dual drive redundancy, etc.)
