When is a browser not a browser?
When it's OpenAI's new #ATLAS
And Atlas is amazing.
That said, remember it's still new and using it to access BANKING or SECURE PORTAL sites is NOT RECOMMENDED by OpenAI at this time.
So explore, push boundaries ... JUST NO BANKING!

This is just one of many ways I use #Scrivener ~ as my idea lab. It's perfect for content management.
Each folder tracks projects, drafts, and content by date or theme. It’s where half-formed thoughts turn into finished articles.
Nothing gets lost, and everything eventually finds its place.

How many of you did this as a kid?
I'd spend hours keying in code. Then hours debugging it 🤪
Then I'd save it twice to tape because that backup medium was super unreliable.
Funny how playing taught me skills I use today: patience and of course, debugging.

Here's a view of what's beneath my tv. The unit is dark brown with silver accents. The clock is red. I like how it pops against the busy backdrop.

Hot on the heels of my trying out the 'Terminator' prompt for my profile photo, I gave ChatGPT a photo I took of my hometown's waterfront pier and asked it to turn it into an 'apocalyptic version akin to Terminator.' This is what it created! #BurlON in the year 2125 😳

Long weekend logic 🤣
📌 Clean the yard?
➡️ Not urgent, not important (to you)? DROP IT.
📌 Get groceries?
➡️ Sounds important… but can it be outsourced? DELEGATE IT. (Instacart, anyone?)
📌 Fire up the BBQ?
➡️ Absolutely critical and due now. DO IT.
📌 Organize the garage?
➡️ Oof. Not today. DEFER IT.
