Counterpoint: the swipe viewing mode (great for picture-heavy communities), which can be set as a default viewing mode for subreddits in Boost, is treated as a weird ginger stepchild in Sync and you have to manually select it every time. It also ignores options like 'don't start videos with sound' for Reasons as well. Very irritating and odd.

Nah, it's definitely available in 10 - used to use it a lot on my dual monitor setup at work and that's still not upgraded to 11. Fell out of the habit of dual monitoring during the pandemic so it hasn't really been necessary since...

Didn't know about this Powertoys feature, neat - think Windows actually has a built-in option you can toggle where if you hold down shift (or possibly ctrl? Haven't had cause to use it for ages) it'll highlight the cursor with a bright circle.

Interesting! I've never burned though a shirt but perhaps I've been lucky. Maybe I do need to invest in one of these...

Spaceships Over Glasgow: Mogwai, Mayhem and Misspent Youth by Stuart Braithwaite - a musical memoir of the Mogwai star. It's a really great and nostalgic look back at the Scottish alternative music scene of the early 90s so far, enjoying it a lot!

Voyager (formerly Wefwef). I'm still super excited to get Boost back in my life, but I'm so so impressed with just how functional and great feeling the Voyager team have been able to make a PWA.

I was having real issues for ages with torrent activity causing issues on my home network, and tried all the usual things - e.g. Limiting bandwidth use, limiting number of connection, disabling DHT and the like - but for me, the culprit turned out to be the VPN, and specifically the use of a traditional openvpn based connection. Switching to Wireguard made a transformative difference. No issues since.
