Windows 7

| tech | software | microsoft |

I just got an machines desktop with windows 7, and I am checking out this neat Windows live writer. I have to admit, I am enjoying it so far. Despite the fact that the wireless card that I bought does not work with my computer. This so frustrating, in the past I could always rely on windows for compatibility. But unfortunately they are in the same boat as Linux and Mac when it comes to windows 7. Its very frustrating.

But other then that minor setback, It is nice to have a desktop around for a change. I always enjoyed having something stationary to look at. Also, its nice to have a big wide screen instead of a tiny laptop.

No more eye strain! Great Ergonomics.

More IT News: I am checking out IBM Lotus Symphony which is an office suite bases on Open Office.org and I am liking it too. The reviews said that it was more polished and I agree. It is very similar to open office, except it is more polished.

I just wish that I could sync all of my computers. That’s what sucks about having windows Mac and Linux in the same household. Nothing is synced and I cannot make up my mind on which one I want to use more often.

Thank you for reading! Share your thoughts with me on bluesky, mastodon, or via email.

“They had the simplest task in the world.”

This is a really nice set of transitions when pinching in and out in Photos in iOS 26. This is trickier than it seems, because it’s not just a linear zoom (like it would be in Maps or Sketch, for example). It’s a zoom and reflow – from 3 items to 1 item pe...
