PowerToys’ latest update is small but it’s the latest chapter in an excellent year for the app

Microsoft’s PowerToys for Windows is a marvelous assemblage of useful tools. This application gathers various utilities that handle minor tasks such as file renaming, smart copy-pasting options, and everything in between. The app frequently gets updated, although not every update introduces significant new features. This description applies to PowerToys version 0.83.0, which offers only a few novel features compared to its predecessors.

One of my favorite PC accessory brands has considered probably the worst design decision I’ve ever seen for its new mouse

Your favorite accessory is a bit like a well-worn pair of gloves. Countless hours of use have smoothed away any rough edges and contoured the item to you specifically. On top of physical comfort, familiarity is a massive benefit of using the same tool for a long time. I type much faster on my main keyboard than when I have to use another one, for example. Well, Logitech plans to make a “forever mouse,” which sounds great until you realize it’s nothing like what you’d imagine.
