This week on SouthGeek News, the crew goes full nerd. Samuel dives headfirst into “building a second brain” with Notion and the PARA method—because apparently one brain isn’t enough when you’re juggling classes, jokes, and memory gaps. Ben battles Proxmox and GRUB with GPT’s help, proving that even Linux admins occasionally pray to the AI gods. Donovan and Tyler reminisce about running enterprise-style phone systems on Intel Atoms (yes, really), before diving into the absurdity of subscription-based cars—pay extra if you want to accelerate faster, or worse, keep your steering wheel.
From there, it’s a ride through Windows 11 updates that nuke SSDs, streaming services that are driving people back to piracy faster than you can say “buffering,” and the ever-ridiculous broadband battles—where Starlink insists satellites are just as good as fiber (spoiler: they aren’t). Finally, Perplexity AI tries to flex by offering $34.5 billion to buy Chrome, which is basically like a college kid offering to buy Apple with whatever’s in his Venmo account.
In short: bad subscriptions, exploding SSDs, streaming greed, and Elon’s internet toys all take a beating.
