Hold My Chicken 🎉

The computer is connected and running and I am at the most important part of the process:

I must choose a name for it.

Traditionally, when I need to name something, I've picked a name associated with whatever I'm most obsessed with at the time.

But I already have several items with names inspired by Kim 😅

Ah I have it. It's going to be called KiraKira

I'm going to try to avoid ever telling Microsoft who I am, or letting it start running OneDrive. It seems impossible to get rid of that fucker after it gets a foot in the door, so I'm not letting it in.

I don't yet know how to do local user accounts or anything like that, so I have some learning to do.

It's possible I'll eventually crack and give in, but I won't do it if I don't have to.

This beastie is KiraKira.

I think I'm in love.

(I'll probably remove the riser under the monitor. I needed it when I had a much smaller monitor, but this new extra-wide curved monitor is a bit overwhelming.)

I have an external sound bar to set up too, but I'll leave that for tomorrow

@TheOtherDibbler this photo is taken with my pixel pro 6 phone, which also takes high-quality photos. So it's an excellent monitor *and* an excellent phone camera ❤️

@lookitmychicken my way around MS is to upgrade to professional

@Musicappreciator7 i may want to pick your brain about that at some point
