Its like having a leatherman. Just as good as a special tool? Never. But a lot of times its enough when you want something now.

I always have x number of projects where having a general tool helps.
05.03.2026 09:23 β π 1 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0Thats a good thing. Companies are trying to sell us on an idea we all have to use it and accept it.. it doesn't bother me either way if people do. Just like any other tool. Right now its being overused, and over promoted, largely for jobs the tech is ill suited for. I however have found uses for it.

For getting better, I mostly use it as a tool 'can you take these google results and..' 'can you write me a userscript that...' 'condense this wikipedia article' etc. So its not learning a lot from me.

One of the lists out there one can sign up for here on Bsky is #electronicmusic .. I guess its fine for a general feed but there is very little to do with music, electronic or otherwise.
Would be nice if there was some auto filing system for this stuff. π€·ββοΈ
If you have windows 10 or later you also have linux through WSL. Most don't use it but we all have it. ;)

Those taste components don't meaningfully effect calories or anything like that. Get some high end EVOO and compare with store bought lite and you'll know.

Taking away daily login rewards and challenges known as endeavors that have been fun passtimes for near a decade. All to needlessly 'refocus'.
