I can live without 24 threads, but I love not having my computer become unusable because I'm encoding video or doing some other CPU-heavy task. having more than 4 threads has opened a whole new world of thinking of how to parallelize common tasks - not ever having to wait for your computer feels like a super-power. Paradoxically, this has freed me up to use an ARM chromebook for day-to-day usage - when I need firepower, I remote into the TR workstation (smartplug + boot on power BIOS + dynamic DNS)
I'll never stop feeling a little exhilaration from typing "make -j 22"
