I just picked up the latest version of “Copying and Pasting”. This edition discusses copying and pasting from various AIs. Looking forward to digging in

Time to leave Windows already. It’s been a broken mess for so long. Literally decades. One of my first jobs when I was a teenager in the 2000s was fixing electronics, often Windows computers. It was a broken mess back then too.

The alternatives are good. Desktop Linux works pretty well out of the box last time I used a Linux laptop as my daily driver. If specific software you need isn’t supported there’s undoubtedly an open source alternative, or a web app. Most browsers let you “install” web apps now too. I used the full MS Office suite for years as installed web apps.

Macs are expensive up front but they last forever and are rock solid with security and stability. I never have to fuss with mine, and there’s almost definitely a Mac version of whatever specific software you need on Windows.

Everything runs some form of UNIX now. Stop wasting time with Microsoft’s ancient 25 year old NT kernel and the broken (and now spyware) OS they built on top of it.

Brendan Eich worked really hard to turn himself into just another tech bro incel but Brave is a really good browser and the engineers deserve to not have their accomplishments overshadowed by a weird adult obsessed with other people’s genitals.

They created a novel and interesting approach to ads with their BAT token and Brave is probably the most private browser you can get if you’re stuck with Chromium browsers.

As often as I’ve tried to switch to Firefox I always end up encountering issues and going back to Brave. I wish he’d step down so Brave can shine without his bullshit whining hanging over them.
