TechByter Worldwide 2024-02-09: Some Of My Favorite Things Are Free. Short Circuits.
from TechByter Worldwide (formerly Technology Corner) with Bill Blinn · host Bill Blinn
Free, open-source software is often viewed as being second rate when compared to commercial software, but sometimes the best application actually does cost nothing. In Short Circuits: When something starts with Windows, but you don’t want it to, finding a way to make it stop can be a challenge. Autoruns fixes that. • Phones no longer have dials, but we still say we’re dialing a number. Hardware, software, and processes are changing so fast that some arrive, flourish, and disappear seemingly in days.
