  • It’s great actually!

    Before, I would make my coffee before turning on my computer, now I can streamline this as with Windows my computer isn’t ready until my coffee is too, saving me valuable minutes.

    And right when I’m in the middle of my work, I’ll get exciting pop-ups about the new AI capabilities coming to Office 365, far beyond what LibreOffice could ever dream of. I didn’t even ask for the adverts, they just feed me new content all the time!

    Most of my work now involves prompting Copilot and waiting for it’s response, downloading Windows Updates, or waiting for my Google Chrome with it’s own bundled 4GB AI model to install. With that much waiting, I’ve increased my coffee consumption 5x so far this week, hit my move goal 3x over every day (I go for a short 20 mile hike while the Updates download), and generated some absolutely hilarious images with ChatGPT and my friends!













  • Unfortunately, yes, our brains are still wired almost exactly how they were when we were hunter-gatherers; we just stuff it with more knowledge now.

    Back then, sure, greed was a necessary survival instinct to have food over the winters, and hand-outs were risky.

    We haven’t adapted to the modern world, and the abundance available to us.


  • I have the same situation, no, unfortunately there hasn’t been any improvement with mixed DPI or fractional scaling yet, though I believe that is something that will be considered once the codebase has been adequately modernised.

    I spend most of my day away from my desk so it’s not a blocking issue for me, I just use my laptop standalone at my desk, might consider swapping my 4K monitor for a 1080p one from my work.
