SoCS: typos

I don’t like having AI butting in with suggestions while I’m typing and I really don’t want to waste the energy it takes to run it, so I disable it as much as possible.

I disabled Gemini from my main Gmail inbox. A casualty of that is that I also lost spell check.

Mind you, spell check was there long before AI started butting in, but now it appears that you can only have spell check if Gemini is turned on.

While I try my best, I’m afraid that some typos have snuck into my emails.

I hope that people forgive them in exchange for my authentic voice, unaltered by AI.

SoCS: inbox

Sigh. If I’m ever going to clear out my inbox, I need to stop doing this and go back to that.

landing in the junk bin

I often subscribe by email to comment threads on other blogs so that I don’t miss replies.

I just checked my email  and found that a whole bunch of those emails got shunted to my junk folder at the same time that many others landed correctly in my inbox.

Weird.
