I’m writing you today from my spare computer, as my main machine is currently in the shop. Fingers crossed they can fix The Beast, as it would cost more money to replace than I’m willing to spend right now.
Thankfully, I have backups and redundant backups, so the only thing I lose when something like this happens are various tweaks and settings.
For instance, somehow I have The Beast set up to make sure that when I type an em dash followed by a quote, the quote is facing the correct way. This computer doesn’t do that. I’m sure it’s some setting I tweaked at some point, but no clue what or where.
Also, the machine I’m working on right now doesn’t have a name. Not like The Beast, which I named because, well…it’s a freaking beast with a powerful processor for graphic design programs, 4T of storage and a nice big 27” screen.
What about you, have you ever named your computer? Or maybe some other piece of equipment or appliance? Reply to this email and let me know :-)
