Work has gone all in on CoPilot. One of the most useful things so far is asking it to search for files. I can remember a slide deck or spreadsheet etc. and what it was about but not exactly where it was saved. Now CoPilot can tell me. It’s so integrated into every Microsoft app. Probably the best way to use it but at home I don’t want Windows whatsoever.

Fallen into a bad habit of sitting on my phone on reddit in the evening for 1-2 hours. Just scrolling waiting for something interesting to appear (it doesn’t). I need to stop that. Probably a combination of being tired and bored. Probably should watch the new The Night Manager, or Fallout or the latest Muppet Show.

I started the process to migrate away from Gmail. After a long time I picked mailbox.org for various reasons, and have one domain on it, but I’ve not paid and not sure I want to migrate now. I was using iCloud for mail hosting, which is part of my 200GB iCloud subscription, so why pay more? Mailbox has lots of nice features, but really the point was to move away from Gmail. Again, I think a new domain is better than using one of my website domains, but, again, I still can’t think of one, or want to pay for another one.

A friend has colitis, which sounds absolutely horrible. Here’s me complaining I’m bored and what email provider should I switch to (well I know that part but you know).
