    This, however, is why anyone who grouses about this being a "bailout" can go kick rocks. I wasn't someone who made a risky investment or an executive who (I am increasingly learning) made a series of shitty decisions.

    The big rack of gear in my studio is fun, but I'm certainly not going to travel with it! That's where the YoloBox Pro comes in! It's a complete studio in a box, and I can't wait to take it with me on my next trip!

    most people just want stable tools to do their jobs with and that's something the industry has absolutely refused to provide.

    The bars are giving out free shots to everyone.

    Adam Nuemann just appeared on the rooftop of a penthouse and is giving speech.

    Fireworks are going off.

    It is absolute chaos

    @aaronpk I'm anti-trackpad under any circumstance (maybe BECAUSE I'm only ever really trying Windows laptops? Maybe if I was a Macbooker I'd be more cool with trackpads? Probably not I think). So I'm totally happy to grant you that but I'll always pull out the MX Master anyway. :)

    Aaron Parecki
    It's true, I do feel far less frustrated using a mouse with my windows computer. But weirdly I feel more frustrated using a mouse with my Mac, but the trackpad on the mac laptop is great. Also I don't really like the external Mac trackpad? Computers are weird

    What laptop do you have? I am on a Surface Pro 8 and the responsiveness is fully comparable to the MBP pro… well, the win10 one, at least. I have another SP8 w win11 and that one is indeed a bit laggy 😅
    Aaron Parecki
    It's the Razer Stealth 13, I bought it in 2019 so it's not exactly new, but it was new and best of class at the time! I did just update it to Windows 11 because it basically forced me to.

    @aaronpk I have very much the same experience when I use Mac, so I really do think it's just about what you're used to. I'm thinking about buying a Mac and spending time on it just to build up familiarity.

    Aaron Parecki
    it's funny because I grew up on windows computers, but stopped using them around the XP era. I agree that most of the differences are learned, but I swear Macbook trackpads are the absolute best no question, and no PC laptops come anywhere close.

    listen, it's just a little difficult to take seriously some of these VCs and execs who are panicking about SVB under the guise of being worried about the employees and the little guys

    After hacking on Windows native MSVC builds for about a month in an emulator, it stopped feeling so weird. But it was a struggle for weeks. Muscle memory is extremely hard to overcome. "Mind over matter" — I think not.
    Aaron Parecki
    oh gosh, I feel like I'm using an emulator every time I interact with this physical windows laptop. It just doesn't respond as fast, the trackpad is wildly less accurate, it feels like I'm one step removed from the interactions with the computer

    Every time i use my Windows computer I feel like I'm stuck under water and every time i press a button some other button gets pressed instead.

    I'm sure it's fine if you're used to it, but wow I just feel incompetent trying to use it.

    How do I find the value of this? This used to be a gas furnace, but the guts are ripped out, so it’s just decorative unless someone restored it. New, these things cost well over $2,000. It’s cast iron and weighs a ton. I can’t figure out if it’s worth $10 or $1,000!

    Dear companies who offer to send me a 200.00 product and demand a dedicated video in 2 weeks or less: This is a great way to ensure I won’t ever work with you… Sad to see large brands still treating creators this way. Also I’m now actively looking at their competitors products
