    As a software dev, i like having 3. Gives me space to see

    • console output and debug info on the left
    • my code editor in the center
    • and my browser on the right

    Or having multiple vscode windows and a browser

    I also move windows around using the keyboard (win + left / right), and the task switcher (alt + tab)





  • There’s a really good YT channel called Midwest Magic Cleaning, who cleans hoarder houses for free. He talks a lot about the “potential” of an item vs it’s current value.

    Hoarders will keep an item because it has potential, but the item will never “actualize” that potential. Thus the current “value” of the item is just taking up space

    He also talks a lot about the emotional attachment, as well as the actual panic disorders that can be triggered by someone attempting a cleanup.

    The comic is funny, but it’s not really a good representation

    My first cat was perfectly OK with free feeding

    My second cat got chonk quick

    Now, between 2 dogs and 3 cats, it’s just easier to supervise twice daily meals. I also keep their food nearby in a plastic storage container (from the hardware store)




  • The kernel does stuff like

    • process and CPU task management
    • hardware abstraction
    • memory management (at the process level),
    • file system managment
    • and resource isolation (such as randomized memory addresses (ASLR))

    The rest of the OS provides the actual software that users interact with, like

    • file managers
    • desktop rendering and window management
    • settings menus
    • sound mixing between applications
    • graphics rendering
