You sort of can already. For text it’s definitely possible, and I’ve started doing it since my notes are mostly text rather than screenshots. (I use obsidian to take notes, and quick thoughts get their own note).

I don’t have a mega cohesive workflow yet but this is the list of things I do:

• I have a script that combines all my notes into one. This runs automatically in my computer every few minutes, and synced to Google drive.

• For work (we have a Gemini Pro subscription) this plus some rolling meetings notes gets added to a gemini “gem” (custom set of instructions/context) that has been instructed to answer from my notes, so that I can ask it “what recent ideas have I had” or “what’s the biggest problem right now with project XYZ”.

• For my personal notes, I upload manually the combined notes to perplexity and do roughly the same.

• And the one that might work for you, now I’ve opened my obsidian vault (I.e. the folder where my notes live) with Windsurf, an AI-enabled IDE. These things can do much more interesting things than vibe coding. I use this for tidying up: “help me find topics in my notes where I haven’t linked the notes between them”.

You could use this last one to open your screenshots folder, and your monthly credits might not last that long if you’re dealing with images, but I think that’d be a problem only at the beginning when you have a large number of unsorted files. You could ask it to put analyse them and put them into longer format notes, for example. Or go through them one by one, analyse them, and if they’re worth keeping, add the text to a single big text file and then move the screenshot to another folder that you could delete later.

I love this, thank you so much!!

I’m going to add another thing I’ve learnt in the past couple of years. No organisation method is perfect, and IT’S FINE to ditch a method and try a new one. No shame.

No, you haven’t failed, no, you’re not “incapable” of doing GTD or using Kanban or Todoist or whatever. It can be the case that your life has changed and what seemed like a good method 6 months ago, just doesn’t work anymore.

The reality is life changes quickly, and when you’re a student at 22 you need different strategies and methods to when you become an intern at 23 to when you have a decent but different job at 26 or when you become a manager at 38. And in between all those things there are many small steps - you move countries, you start living with your partner, you have a child, you start your own company, you decide “fuck it, I’m not working a 9-5 anymore and I’m going to live off advertising things on Tiktok”.

Whatever happens with your life, it’s a process, not something static. So as tempting as it is for us NDs, you can’t blame yourself when your method fails to contain the huge chaos of the neurodivergent mind. Plus let’s face it, if you have ADHD you’re likely to get bored of it and at that point it’s better to find something new than to just give up altogether on the idea of organising.

(Same advice applies to many other fields, e.g. exercising - gym might stop working for you but you can always start swimming, or bouldering, or whatever, up until your life changes and you get bored).

I think a better purchase in the fujifilm realm is the instax link wide printer.

Your phone is likely to already take far better photos than the Evo and will get upgraded over time anyway, improving the quality of your Fuji photos. Plus, if you eventually get a DSLR (or mirrorless given we’re in 2025) you can also print instant photos off that.

The Evo only has a 1/3" sensor (an iPhone’s is far bigger and nicer) and a 16mm equivalent focal length, which means nothing like bokeh or subject separation - it’s almost literally a 2018-spec wide-angle phone camera sensor attached to an instax printer.

For me it’s a no brainer. If you already have an iPhone or any phone that takes semi-decent pictures, the instax printer is cheaper and gives you that link to the analogue world.

The other instax you have serves as a “semi disposable” camera that you can still keep but that you care less about (e.g. for going to the beach).

sorry I can’t come up with anything more humane but here it is: my safe-ish idea would be to get a large clear plastic box, and drop it (opening facing down) on top of the pears and wasps. If it’s large enough you’re likely to be able to do this without angering them, and as long as it falls flat-ish they won’t be flying right back at you.

From there you can just leave them, or come back a while later and place something heavy on the box so it doesn’t fly with the wind.

There’s a chance some of them might escape but if they do it will be one by one manageable) and otherwise they’ll keep feeding on the rotting fruit until weather or lack of water takes care of them.

This category normally is considered EV rather than hybrids because of the ICE not being connected to the wheels. They are usually called “EREVs” for Extended Range Electric Vehicles. The BMW i3 with the optional range extender of the first generation Chevrolet Volt / Opel Ampera are examples of it.

PHEVs (Plugin Hybrid-Electric Vehicles) are what they’re called when you can charge the vehicle as well, but the internal combustion engine is connected to the drivetrain rather than just the battery.

When the iPhone X was released (2017), the £1000 pricing was considered ridiculous. Most flagships at the time cost about £600 (this is what the 2016 iPhone 7 cost at launch, with the iPhone 7 Plus having a starting price of £720).

Obviously this didn’t stop Apple from selling them like hotcakes and establishing an immediate +30% increase of the flagship smartphone prices.

Today, a Galaxy Z Fold starts at £1800. This is a +146% increase over the 2017 release price of the Galaxy Note 7.

According to the bank of England, we’ve seen a total inflation of 34% in the 2017-2025, while phones have increased their prices by >100%.

So yeah, no surprise there. As phones keep rising in value, they are going to continue becoming an increasingly desirable target for thefts. A gym bag full of smartphone boxes can easily have over £20k at retail prices, and easily fetch £10k when sold at a hefty discount, but a smartphone store doesn’t have the security measures of a jewelry store. I can see how it’s attractive to thieves.

Why do you consider the UK’s ticketing system outdated? There’s oyster in/around London and QR codes everywhere else.

What are you missing, is location-based surveillance what would be needed to modernise it in your opinion?

What happened was, they realised that Arc was a niche product that had a fervient userbase but would never become a mainstream browser, so they announced its development was “complete” and they were moving on to Dia so that they could jump onto the AI bandwagon create the next generation of browser.

The best thing The Browser Company ever did was unintentionally making someone else decide to create Zen.

I’m very mildly pro-AI, in the sense that I remain optimistic there will be at least a few cool use cases and I’d love to find them.

So I tried Dia… And uninstalled it a few hours later. Why would I want to “chat with my tabs”? Even if I didn’t think this was a rubbish use case, every browser comes with a chatbot sidebar/extension/whatever, why would I want to change browsers just for that?

Heavy pass. Also, after how they abandoned Arc, I don’t think they can be trusted to develop a product and not pull the rug from under the users when it becomes mildly inconvenient to keep working on it.

That they’re not republicans in disguise.

This is how I used to think until I was shown that no, this is a problem that >80% of the population doesn’t have, and no, misplacing your coffee mug an average of 3 times during your workday is not typical.

This 100%

I agree, even MacOS is a more capable software development platform than Windows these days.

The generation of Amstrad, Spectrum etc had the games on tape. I would say they were the closest thing to a console pre-NES, so 1980s. I had an amstrad that was handed down to me by a friend of an older sister and it had tapes like this.

I don’t use Heroic that much so I might be misunderstanding things, but isn’t that exactly what the OP has said wants to avoid?

How are you launching the games, through Heroic? You could create multiple shortcuts to Heroic as non-steam games, one for each game you want; this is what I do for GeForce Now. Then use a decky plugin to change the cover / etc on the menu so that you have different icons for each game.

Also, if you look up the ID of a game on SteamDB, you can set the name of your “Non-Steam game” shortcut to that (e.g. 3792227499) and when you open it you’ll get access to all the custom gamepad layouts people have made for that game. They’ll stop showing up once you revert the name to something more readable, but this will give you temporary access to set one.

Sorry if this is not very clear, my brain is working at half power right now and I feel this message came out a right mess. I hope it’s a helpful mess though!

For the Sony? As an “enthusiast” the app is not the problem, the problem is more that the sensor has almost 50% surface area than what you find on a Xiaomi 13/14/15 Ultra, a Vivo X100 Pro / Ultra, Oppo Find X7/X8 Ultra, etc.

The app is a problem if you just want a “point and shoot”, and then you could install a GCam and deal with the hacky bits. However, if that’s what you’re after, you’re likely better off buying a Pixel / Samsung Galaxy anyway.

As someone who’s moved from Sony to Xiaomi, I think their flagships are great phones… Going through an identity crisis.

They are heavily marketed towards camera enthusiasts. So much so, that they’ve neglected the automatic camera modes, and the collective wisdom says that to make the most of them you should take photos in Pro Mode.

…which would be great, except for the fact that Sony put a 1" sensor in the Pro-I (well, they technically didn’t use the whole sensor, but still) and never attempted that again. Then you have Xiaomi, Vivo, etc, actually making phones for camera enthusiasts that can, in Pro mode, produce minimally processed images with better quality, as they are the ones using Sony’s best smartphone sensors.

Then you could say it’s marketed at people who want everything on a phone: SD, microphone… But then you have Sony’s recent shift back to 1080p screens. So if that’s what you’re after, 1400€ on a flagship with a 1080p is a tough sell.

If you consider it’s a “flagship for everyone” rather than fitting it into one of the niches above, then the lacking auto mode on cameras and the near-zero spend on marketing materials in Europe and the US makes zero sense.

So… Which one is it? They aren’t exactly cheap so I haven’t been able to buy another Xperia 1 without understanding this. The Xiaomi 14/15 Ultra has many caveats but it is unapologetic about being a smartphone for photography lovers, so I knew full well what I was getting into. As a product, the Xperia 1 VI was thoroughly conflicted.

They’re absolutely failing because the execs are hype-driven clowns who focus on the wrong metrics.

“Failing to drive rapid revenue growth”, WTF. Leaving aside whether GenAI is a useful technology or not, it’s never been a technology to “drive rapid revenue growth”, just like Microsoft Office, or calculators, or a million other technologies.

This is all just a pipe dream from a clueless exec class that prioritises short-term profits and hoped that implementing a glorified autocorrect would make people flock en masse to their random product. Why would you think an AI chatbot in your online clothes shop would make me like your ill-fitting jeans any better, you overpaid monkey?

Maybe you could have hoped for employees to achieve a “5% productivity increase” or something mildly realistic, but no, your brain-eating slugs told you to shoehorn AI into everything and 👏We 👏Don’t 👏Need👏AI👏Fucking👏Everywhere👏

I know I’m preaching to the choir but I needed the rant.
