My grandson was talking about how bad Windows 11 is. He uses windows for gaming and school. I shared with him how utterly useless Windows V 1.0 was. I recall that going back to the C Prompt which was more useful and user friendly than Windows V 1.0
Down a very deep Santana wormhole. Using the good headphones. Noise canceling so I can keep volume lower & not hear the TV and everything. Forgot how good Abraxas was. It’s hard to sit still with Soul Sacrifice from 1st album
MB doesn’t have the choice of Hawaiian language in language. Just an observation.
I’m not fluent, but use it quite a bit
Watched the Indy 500 for the first time in years. The 4 hour weather delay helped. It’s usually on at 6 am. What a barn burner of a race. Manic pace. 8 stoppages. Last lap pass for the winner

Back in the day I could find a live MLB baseball game on any day on either WGN or TNT or ESPN or somewhere else. Now it’s nearly impossible. All about subscriptions and money. Even then, without a cable contract, it’s virtually impossible.
Lots of AI comments and opinions. I posted mine yesterday. Jury is still out on trust for the entire technology. I’m playing with a couple of AI apps. Pi and Claude to be specific. I trust them about as much as Google, bit they seem to have better result.
Shoulder MRI delayed 2 weeks due to MRI machine being down. The challenges of living on a rock in the middle of the ocean. I’m anxious (worried and eager) to get a diagnosis on my right shoulder that’s keeping me out of work.
Just opened up my 12” MacBook. It’s been in a drawer for months. To my surprise, it started up and works. I miss this machine. I used it daily for a couple of years, but its battery is shot.
