Been a while since anything has been placed here, so here goesā€¦

How often do you restart/reboot your PC
  • At least every day
  • Maybe once every few days
  • Few times a week
  • Every few weeks
  • When I feel like it
  • When the system prompts me to do so (typically after an update)
  • Now that I think of it, I never do.

Honestly got into the habit of turning the desktop off because of load shedding. Iā€™ve slowly started getting out of the habit lately of letting it go into Sleep mode. The laptop on the other hand, goes off maybe once a week.

Every few hours when Eskom is performing at its best.

Since I now have a UPS and we have solar backup power, I basically never restart my PC, only after maybe an update, or if I feel like something screwy is happening with my PC.

Since I wondered how long my PC has actually up for,
My CPU says its been: 108 days 17 hours

If anyone else wants to find out, a simple easy way to use, is to go to taskmanager > performance > CPU tab look for the ā€œUp Timeā€ section.

Cortana is dead. Long live Cortana!!

Currently being replaced by the ChatGPT-driven Copilot. (MS didnā€™t invest all those billions into OpenAI not to make use of it.)

Oh, and who voted ā€œOther, comment below.ā€ and then didnā€™t comment below?! Youā€™re doing it wrong!

Yeah, I didnā€™t include Copilot as it is more akin to ChatGPT and thus more a language model than an assistant. Though there is a lot of overlap of these services.
