Not the whole phone obviously. But syncing all my contacts, recent calls etc.

Bro couldn’t even clean his room in 3 days.
I’m happy with a Bluetooth connection to the stereo. I have maps on my phone.
Fuck carplay/android auto in the ear.
I hate getting a rental car and I just want my music, but it tries to hijack and download my whole phone.
I want to get in, connect my phone and go. Not 20 minutes wrestling it for control.
Digital displays are fine. It’s just a display. But controls should be manual (buttons, dials, etc) that can be operated with eyes on road.
No. Some of us were already there.
Lifetime Microsoft expert here, I have had machines with Linux in one flavour or another for 15+ years at least.
But for ease of use I just keep coming back to Windows… Because I know it backwards and upside down.
The structure of it makes sense to me. And I have ADHD so I have a terrible working memory and Linux relies FAR too much on command console to do anything effective.
But Linux is hands-down the better system to get away from Microsoft’s enshitification of Windows. But I personally like Windows better.
So I will always run both. But if I need to be really productive, Windows Desktop it is. If I need a server, Linux every time. (Unless it’s MS SQL or a website).
Pascal, turbo Pascal and Delphi were my earliest real programming experiences making commercial software (the ability to inline assembly code in turbo Pascal was very good.)
It really was an excellent introduction to programming.
But then I switched to properly multithreadded object oriented programming, which Pascal was not so good at.
They’re fixing most of this nonsense.
YouTube music is actually very good.
But you need a subscription… And unless you also use a lot of YouTube and would benefit from a lack of ads it’s not very good value.
Of the two main games I play, one doesn’t work on Linux due to the anti-cheat they use, and the other has horrific stuttering while loading game assets.
But Linux works better for the curated selection for this article.
Fair.
We use the sign interpreter feature in Teams and it’s really good. The live captions struggles a bit with the Aussie accent though.
But mostly it’s the SharePoint/OneDrive/Outlook/m365 integration I find useful. If I was on Linus or macOS, I suspect I would feel differently.
OneDrive on Mac is ass.
At work Teams has been great.
Zoom is too bare-bomes.
The I hacked it together at 3am feel of the zoom interface makes me actively hate the damn thing.
Like teams feels like a communication application. Zoom feels like a hobby project.
Now… Let’s see what 1000 years of cosmic radiation does to the data.
The car was the slow part, I have an S23+.
The wrestling was figuring out getting BT audio ONLY.
And until I reset the head unit to factory previous users, contacts, radio stations and destinations were all stored there.
Not great on a rental car.
