Money saving tech tips, Twitter/Musk row gets nasty, change capitalisation on Microsoft Word.

It’s getting really nasty now between Twitter and Tesla founder Elon Musk - who’s walked away from his offer to buy the social media platform.

 

A 44 billion dollar deal was on the table - Twitter it’s launched legal action to hold him to his obligations.

 

I think this mess means either - someone else - probably a mainstream media company will buy Twitter on the cheap - if a deal can’t be done, I think Twitter has a very uncertain medium to long term future.

 

 

Here’s a quick Microsoft Word shortcut.

 

Ever got a document in block caps and you want to change it all to lower case or put capitals at the start of sentences?

 

Highlight the text you’re working with and hold SHIFT while you press F3.

 

Press it a few times and it’ll cycle round serval difference options.

 

 

And it’s been a while since I mentioned cost of living money saving tech tips.

 

A big one right now is to threaten to leave whether it’s a software subscription or service provider.

 

I’ve seen discounts as large as 30% for life - these companies will give up a lot in return for your continued loyalty.

 

I’d also advise making sure you’re not paying for the same thing twice.

 

For example - the latest version of Final Cut Pro has built in automatic captions, removing the need to pay for another provider.
