Alcohol Nation

Dr Aric Sigman provides clear guidance to help us protect the next generation from the worst excesses of our drinking culture.

We are a nation that loves to drink. And we're passing the habit on to our children. But a growing body of compelling new evidence about the dangers of alcohol consumption at a young age will force us to reconsider the entire way we view alcohol and young people.

As parents, we need to talk to our children about alcohol but many of us are not sure what to say. In this essential book, Dr Aric Sigman ties up all the latest medical research and cultural issues and puts them into context. Most importantly he addresses drinking not just as a teenage problem but as an integral part of our history and culture. It will lead us to understand how the way we view alcohol impacts directly upon our children's present and future health, wellbeing and academic success, and it will answer the question, 'how can I reconcile my enjoyment of drinking with ensuring my child grows up knowing how to drink sensibly?'.

Leave the Laptop at Home - Content Backups
Style: Data Transfer (10Gbps)
I purchased this hub so I could leave the laptop at home and do backups of my GoPro Cameras and Drone footage to an SSD drive. I used FilePro Explorer app on my iPhone to set up tasks to do backups of my content from the SD cards to SSD drive. The one hiccup I encountered is FilePro Explorer (or this hub, not sure which) wouldn't recognize my GoPro cameras as a data source, so I had to remove the SD card from my GoPro Cameras, insert the card into another USB hub that had an SD card adapter (like the one here https://amzn.to/4dlkhMt ) and plug that into the Satechi Hub as another drive source, which it then recognized my SD card from the GoPro camera. So basically two small USB hubs and an App on my iPhone replaced what I would normally do with my laptop. Big weight savings when you're on a bike or motorcycle traveling.

Flaky and Fickle
Style: Data Transfer (10Gbps)
Worked great for a month. Went to plug in a spare ssd to back up files from tablet and it never has worked since. No data or power through any ports. The light turns on and stays solid but is just dead. Waste of my money for now it is outside of return and I am having troubles getting in touch with Satechi.

Love this thing
Style: Data Transfer (10Gbps), Style: Data Transfer (10Gbps)
I’m really impressed with my Satechi power passthrough 4 port USB C Hub. It’s really slick, streamlined, and really good looking too. It works well, doesn’t get hot or even warm to the touch.

Works, but man it is SLOW
TL/DR review follows: This thing does what it claims to do (gives you 4 USB ports that you wouldn't have otherwise), but the data transfer speed of any SSD I connect through this Satechi Hub is half what it is when the SSD is connected via my OWC Hub (data transfer rate is double when connected via the OWC Hub vs. being connected via the Satechi Hub). I'll keep this Satechi gadget (in a drawer) for times when I really, really need more USB C ports and therefore will be more willing to tolerate the data transfer speed slowdown penalty. I cannot possibly consider this to be a primary data transfer pathway however. These above results are from an M1 Mac Mini with 16GB RAM and MacOS Monterey with speed measured by Blackmagic Disk Speed Test utility. I did not get similar results on my 11th Gen Intel Core i9-11900 processor PC running Windows 11. Data transfer rates are the same (SLOW) when any USB drive is connected directly to the PC USB C port or when connected via the Satechi Hub. Highly worth mentioning, though, is that all data transfer speeds on the PC are HALF the speed obtained on the Mac Mini when connected via my OWC Hub. All PC data transfer rates were measured by CrystalDiskMark utility One interesting anomaly worth mentioning is that the PC will not eject USB drives if they are connected directly to the single USB C port on the PC BUT it WILL eject any/all USB drives if they are connected via the Satechi Hub. This particular PC has never been able to eject USB devices correctly. The Mac Mini ejects all these same USB devices correctly no matter how they are connected. All USB drives are formatted Windows NTFS whether connected to the Mac Mini or the Windows PC (for those who care) Conclusion: An interesting experiment, but for me the Satechi Hub is not worth what I paid for it. I can easily see it being a worthwhile investment for many, assuming undemanding use cases, however
