It's not worth it if my computer heats up to 85 degrees for an hour and a half every few days. Really throws a wrench in my productivity and has already made me miss a couple meetings. Raycast looks neat, but I'm not interested in adding Yet Another Random Closed-Source Tool to my Mac. At this point I'm mostly using it as a dumb terminal and even that is testing my limits with how annoying Homebrew and the FreeBSD 4.1-ass kernel is.

Congratulations on a novel permutation of “the dog ate my meeting notification” :-)

More like "my computer's CPU is pinned so high that I can't do the screenshare I promised you earlier, because I made the mistake of trying to rebase 15 minutes before I was scheduled to appear"
