Now we’re talking! I was waiting for this episode to drop. I’ve missed Paul so much. (will update this post as I listen)
I did the TWiT Survey
Someone’s phone kept chiming early on(kept is maybe exaggerating. it was twice). Generation gap on display
This episode is making me ever more aware at how fast my PC is ageing. It feels like I got my i7 8700K last year (but it was actually 2018)
My PC GPU is still rocking the GTX1070. I got it in 2016 because I was jealous of a friend who also got one. I didn’t need it at the time, but every passing year I’m very happy I decided to get it, and in 8GB no less. I play all my games mostly at 4K still. I mostly play World of Warcraft and Dolphin (Emulator) though. I used to play League of Legends hardcore
Paul working at HP is my headcanon.
I don’t do anything fullscreen on my PC. I’m actually super anal and have a lot of PowerToys FancyZones. I always try to have at least some desktop visible because I like to “reset” my window focus. I even play games like World of Warcraft windowed!
Wow. Who knew Paul had his own Hawk Tuah story. At a bank no less!
I really want a Steam Deck but I feel like I wouldn’t use it enough. But those handheld PCs are really enticing. I hardly use my Switch though; so I’m not confident enough to drop big dollars on it
I use PowerToys Awake religiously on my work laptop. It was a game changer. It’s like Caffeine / caffenate on the mac
Great episode. I’m glad we’re back
I have an AMD-based Dell Inspiron laptop that I bought in 2020.
I also can’t get over the irony of Paul talking about AI taking peoples’ jobs. I could have sworn that, on a previous show, he admitted to using Microsoft Designer to produce images for articles on his site when the turnaround time wouldn’t allow him to go to a graphic artist
Yes! I remember this. He actually uses AI for most of his header images these days.
He really liked it haha
I’m beyond baffled that Paul and crew continue to insist that new Outlook is “not that bad” Do these guys just never use email? It still can’t do even simple functions - Known Outlook issue that is in fact unknown : sysadmin
Paul looks at things from the perspective of a typical user and not necessary that of all of us, most of whom tend to be tech professionals. I like it because it reminds me that what I consider to be a problem may not even register on the radar of someone who just uses Windows without bringing any professional baggage.
I can’t use the new outlook. I really like the oldschool classic fullblown non-PWA desktop application
That’s my preference as well.
