I'm preferring my new way to degoogle. Instead of manually doing it like I have done in the past, I am now installing Shizuku and using shizuku privileges to precipitate the process. - De-google my life! ⚡

I am old-tech USB ADB and SU Root guy that's learning new tricks of the trade. Rooting is not really needed like it used to be way back in the day. Having an MS Windows OS available 247 is also something in the past.

Spent 72 hours testing Unity AI Open Beta in real game development workflows.
Biggest takeaway?

The MCP integration may matter more than the AI assistant itself.

Some features genuinely save hours.

Others still feel unfinished.

Tested:
scripting
debugging
Figma workflows
editor assistance
production usability
credit consumption

A “Notepad++ for Mac” release is not official and was disavowed by the original creator, Don Ho, due to trademark misuse and potential user confusion 📝
The Mac port will be renamed “NextPad++” with new branding after being identified as an independent project not affiliated with Notepad++ 🐸

VS Code accidentally added "Co-authored-by: Copilot" to all git commits after changing git.addAICoAuthor to default “all,” even when AI features were off.
Microsoft reverted the setting to off and fixed the detection for VS Code 1.119 🛠️

🟪 Skills for Copilot Studio CLI Plugin 🚀

Build and test Copilot Studio agents from the terminal. An open source plugin links Claude Code and GitHub Copilot CLI to Copilot Studio.

This enables natural language YAML authoring and faster iterations. It includes Author Test and Troubleshoot agents for end to end workflows. Integrates with VS Code for local simulation and quick deployment.

💡 Terminal native agent authoring
🔍 Local testing and simulated validation
⚖️ Troubleshooting and YAML fixes

API Testing Tools: Overkill for the Quick Peek?

Developers find complex API testing tools like Postman too much for quick checks. They want simpler options for fast validation.
