    For the last few weeks YouTube has been serving me ads for ladies Gillette razors. My Google profile shows I’m a 41 year old straight male. Most ads are totally not relevant but this one is… out there.




  • When I saw the ad for this on my Roku I thought it was just some western channel based on the name and color scheme. It wasn’t until I saw an article about it that I even knew what it was. I looked into it, my thoughts are, terrible branding, terrible marketing, terrible discovery on the website.

    I don’t see anything that I don’t already own that I would want to watch, but since the website search sucks I don’t know if there’s more to see or not.

    Based on all that, I’m not even willing to blow $2.99 one time to see if it gets better in the app because I doubt it will.

    I switched 10 years ago, started on Ubuntu and hated it, switched to ZorinOS and gained understanding, then switched to Mint and found a home. I now recommend Mint to all windows refugees, it’s layed out similar enough to be intuitive and let’s you learn Linux at a comfortable pace.

    Tl;Dr - switch to Linux Mint when leaving windows.

    I’m only ADHD but I get the project paralysis all the time when faced with something big. Recently I’ve been typing up a few lines of what I want to do covering the big picture then I list out in bullet points the key features or tasks. Once I have that I upload it to chat gpt and ask it to develop an outline with details or instructions for each bullet point.

    Sometimes I have to refine my wording to get it to work, but I’ve finished several projects that sat for months and one for years just by using this method. I’ve also created a dedicated gpt to become an expert on the one really big project where it was the research that was holding me back, then just asked it questions until I had all the data I needed.

    It’s not perfect and you still have to do some work, but it’s been working for me so I thought I’d share.
