apple updates 

Man, the next version of MacOS sure has a lot of features for people who do a lot of video calls and don't make a habit of sitting somewhere offline when they work.

The "low power mode" might be useful to me, that's really about it. Looks like I'm not gonna be leaving Mojave (10.14) until I buy an M2 Air that comes with... probably whatever surf beach comes after Monterey, really. Or the next one. Or maybe when some absolutely catastrophic 10.14 bug happens after they drop support.

This feels weird, I used to pretty much always have the latest OS, but "losing the little desktop kitty that never got recompiled for 64 bits" made me put off 10.15, and I just... haven't bothered. Funny how a habit like that can be ended by something so trivial.

Like, "we brought Notes to Windows" would be worth upgrading, then I could ditch the increasingly huge mess that is Evernote and still be able to collaborate with @zebratron2084, yknow?

(and honestly I think the increasing shittiness of EN has been one of the minor reasons Parallax has stayed stalled out - one more bit of friction to spending a spare moment trying to think about the plot fixes it needs. I really gotta grit my teeth and find the least-shitty way to replace it, except every fucking option seems to be some piece of Electron trash. Fuck moving all apps on the web.)

Direction Evernote has gone over the last few years has just made me sad. I ended up switching to One Note reluctantly because I had to use it a ton at work.
