Well, it’s more generic than that, but I needed it to recall how to do some display stuff on the PC Jr.

I set the Jr. up because I was talking with some future coworkers, and they had a history, or familiarity, with the PC Jr, so I figured it’d be a funny introduction to throw a big letter greeting up on the screen.

I started to think about how to create a ‘real’ program to generate banners based on input, but I realized perhaps I should be focusing on forward looking items, not stuff from 40 years ago! So the Jr. is back on the display shelf, and I’m moving onto AWS stuff.

Not mine, but very good. While some of this can come off negatively (think about how you say things!), the overall thought process is great. Frequently I use some of these techniques and they are very effective!

Many of us log into multiple MS or AAD accounts, and when visiting MS sites, it will present a list of logged in accounts to pick from. However, for many of us, those other accounts are only for things like email, so it is an extra step we really don’t need.

This Edge plug in solves the problem. You can toggle it on and off very easily for those times when you do want to be prompted.

It takes quite a bit to hold my attention for 50 minutes, especially on YouTube, but this video did it. I’ve watched from the sidelines as the prices of all antique computer collectables have gone through the roof, and I’ve been shocked at the crazy pricing of video games in particular. The video linked above does a great job of exposing the fraud and deception in the retro video game market (oddly, that’s the title of the video!).
