Don't know about 'recently', but I bought a new PC about 2 years ago with a 4070 super, spent about one and a half days trying to get Ubuntu to properly set up drivers, and ended up installing windows instead.

(Due to ongoing enshittification I am considering giving it another go with mint)

I mean, I get it, but I always feel like linking trump to fictional villains is not doing him justice. If I remember the books correctly Baron Harkonnen was a somewhat competent dictator.

I occasionally use perplexity to help find the right documentation on topics I am not yet familiar with.

Other than that, I never use AI. I don't have copilot, I have tried it and found it distracting. And I never let AI generate code for me.
