Didn’t they add copilot to notepad, to the file Explorer, to windows I assume as a non removable service (internet explorer anyone?), and to who knows how many more places?

Whatever metrics they claim to have are for sure not inflated. /s

If people are indeed using copilot a lot then great: good for you, please shut up, you don’t need me on-board.

Firefox. Shouldn’t need introduction.

Yes there are forks that may be better to use but let us not forget the one main browser family who’s been giving us a chance at fighting against Malware browsers with zero respect for our privacy.

Good write up. I agree with several points

And it pains me too that everything is damn electron. Can we please go back to writing stuff that doesn’t require that?

I don’t mind an old style interface. Hell, in many cases I’ll welcome it with open arms. Modern UI is not necessarily better. Both tech wise and also style wise.

This one hits hard for me. I too, watched many of his content. I partially watched his last stream. Little did I know it would be the last.

You are loved.

I’ve been playing some games in a retroid pocket 5.

Mind you, it doesn’t run all games, nor all well, but could be worth checking out.

I just found out Netflix has games. Think I’ll keep not using it.

Can you name the exercises you were shown, or link to a video or article explaining them?

I don’t know if this could be a case of “what’s good for me might be bad for you” but bad posture must be pretty common in today’s world.

Did your back pain get as bad as OP’s?

I already keep notes in markdown format but didn’t know of Silverbullet.

I reject Obsidian and Joplin because they’re based on electron but it looks like it’s not the case for Silverbullet. Don’t know if these even support markdown tbh.

I’ll need to look into it further, looks really nice!

How did that banana become green?!

Oh no! Anyway…

Now that’s some JWST love

Yes! Exactly the same. I can only hear it when laying down, mostly at night only when trying to sleep. If I sit or stand up I can’t hear it anymore. Not every night but I sure hear it often.

It does make sleeping harder.

Thanks for the heads up!

Try RustDesk.

It seems to have sound support. I can’t vouch for any of the qualities you are asking otherwise, honestly I just installed it recently to replace TeamViewer on the machine of someone who occasionally needs some basic remote help from me.

OBS, which others mentioned, is, as far as I know, the most popular software for streaming otherwise.

Oh doh, my bad :) Thanks again!

I’ll admit this sounds awesome, thank you!

I still don’t think it’s for me though, due to the sort-of-language-barrier. I feel I’d miss out on a lot of the details by trying to listen.
I followed this excerpt well enough because I had already read it.

Even if I understand the words spoken (which is not always the case), and especially for fantasy books where we make up new words (skaa), or invent concepts (burned tin), it makes it harder to follow unless I’m already familiar with them.

As an example of the first reaction when reading, the brain working: “What do you mean, burned tin? Isn’t tin a metal, let me double check. Yes, did he bring a forge? Wait, what, in his … stomach? Ok I guess I’ll understand this better later.”
When I’m reading I pause and continue at my own leisure, when I’m listening I already missed out on the next 20-30 seconds of audio if I’m trying to figure this out or end up forgetting about this to pay attention to those 20-30 seconds. Sure enough, sometimes the explanation comes right after, but not always :)

That being said, this does sound awesome and I may try it for books I already read!

As for my previous question, which books am I missing from those collections you mentioned 15+?
I checked his bibliography and from what I could tell, either you were talking about another series or some of the short stories such as The Eleventh Metal.

I tried audiobooks only twice for… not even 10 mins each time. Once a proper audiobook read by a human and another time a text-to-speech thing.

They’re not for me, I find myself trying to do something else because I’m “Free” and I just can’t multitask, I can barely pay attention to it and walk.
Furthermore, English is not my native language. While my English is not too poor, it’s an extra mental obstacle, which makes brain have to do some extra gymnastics. When reading in English, I read at my own pace, but when listening … :P

You mentioned in your other comment it’s 15+ books.

Which 15+ ? I’m aware of the two Mistborn eras which are… 3 + 4 = 7.
And I think he wants to write a 3rd Era - but hasn’t.
Maybe you’re including the Stormlight Archives which are 5 if we count Wind and Truth.
Where are the other 3+ I’m missing? :D

Thanks for the encouragement!

Mistborn: The Final Empire, by Brandon Sanderson. An epic fantasy.

I loved it and just started the second book.
