I know Paul said he doesn’t wanna hear it but: I move the taskbar to the top of the screen! And I rely on the smaller one.

I don’t think I’ll stop using ExplorerPatcher for my taskbar needs, but as Paul said: it’s great [that this is now back]

I loved Paul’s story about that Linux-Privacy guy and watching his video on YouTube. “Alright so now I have to deal with this”. Relatable. I was hoping the story would end with Paul making a YouTube comment or a video response (throwback!) to the guy haha

It’s a bit funny to me that Paul has never seen a headlamp before. I used to do a lot of outdoorsy stuff (I’m getting back into it) so I actually have a headlamp. It is doubly useful when camping because my tent has a little hook at the top so I hang the lamp up top and it’s really cozy.

Great episode this week.

Paul seems to increasingly live in a world pretty divorced from reality. “Nobody wants to move the taskbar! I’ve never seen a headlamp! Instragram ads never show me anything I’d want. I’m not rich, but I own homes in two different countries!”
