Ok, so it’s been awhile….

Ok, so it’s been awhile since I wrote here. I still don’t agree with Charlie Kirk. I still think killing him was wrong. In fact killing anybody for their opinion is wrong. Freedom of Speech in enshrined in the Constitution. And it’s under attack. Colbert got cancelled. They say it was for financial reasons, but the real reason why is that CBS/Paramount chose to bend the knee. They tried to cancel Jimmy Kimmel, but the ABC/Disney had to backdown after the consumer backlash (google cancel Disney+). And I also think that there may have been threats of advertiser boycotts, too, at least in the local markets. Cheetos-Face and Couch F*cker have gone down the authoritarian route too far……

Now, on to other things. Windows 11, 25H2 is now out. I’ve already upgraded. Be aware, it will reset you default preferences back to Microsoft Edge.

And I decided to break from the stone age, and actually log on to my computer now (before, I had set it to automatically sign in, as my computer it usually in my room, and I’m the only who uses it). Replaced my webcam with a Logitech Brio 4K. Didn’t really need to, my old still worked perfectly well. It’s just this one has an IR sensor in it, so I can use Windows Hello to log in to my computer just by looking at it….

The Mariners made it to the post-season. They secured a first round bye, so they went straight to the Division Series, where they are currently defeating the Tigers. Sunday’s win at T-Mobile park was their first post-season win there in 24 years. Of course, it will mean terrible road conditions this winter as Hell has frozen over….

Summer has turned to fall. Monday of last week, I took down my air conditioner for the season. And my brother has taken down the one in the living room, too. I had my window fan up for a few days, but that too has come down, and I’ve actually had to run the heat for a couple of occaisions, bot for the most part, it’s just an open windows now….

I've yet to push to Enter key to upgrade to 11 over 10 (rather than a clean install). Rummaging around I'm let to believe all my settings, apps, and files will remain yet I am wary.

I use PowerShell and 10's Power Tools (love that bulk rename files option). Will they be OK?

Powertoys is for both 10 and 11, so bulk rename should work.ff Make sure you're downloading it from the Microsoft Store. And powershell works in my system....
