Hi, friends! Welcome to Installer No. 138, your guide to the best and Verge-iest stuff in the world. (If you’re new here, welcome, happy August, and also you can read all the old editions at the Installer homepage.) 朋友们好！欢迎来到第 138 期《Installer》，这是你探索全球最棒、最“Verge”风格事物的指南。（如果你是新朋友，欢迎加入，八月快乐！你也可以在《Installer》主页阅读往期内容。）
This week, I’ve been reading about microwave sounds and Meta glasses and Alex vs. Alix, testing the Logitech Alto Keys K98M to see if I’m ready for the mechanical keyboard life, digging into the history of the first chatbot, clearing space on my desk for a Bob Ross deskmat, doing a full Ted Lasso rewatch ahead of the new season next week, finally getting into Cyberpunk 2077 now that it’s so cheap, cackling and nodding at this Adobe hate post, and upgrading my home camera setup with the truly enormous Elgato Prompter XL. 本周，我阅读了关于微波炉声音、Meta 眼镜以及 Alex 对阵 Alix 的文章；测试了罗技 Alto Keys K98M，看看自己是否准备好迎接机械键盘生活；深入研究了第一个聊天机器人的历史；为 Bob Ross 的桌垫腾出了桌面空间；在下周新一季《泰德·拉索》开播前重温了全剧；终于开始玩《赛博朋克 2077》，毕竟现在它很便宜；对着这篇吐槽 Adobe 的文章大笑并点头称是；还用巨大的 Elgato Prompter XL 升级了我的家庭摄像设备。
Also, I have some personal news: I’m having a baby! (If your response to this is, Didn’t you just have like 37 other babies, yes, yes I did. Pray for me.) I’m planning to be out from about mid-August to the beginning of October, but I’m also in could-happen-anytime land now. So if I’m suddenly gone, that’s why! Just like last year, my colleague Jay Peters will be taking over Installer while I’m out, and just like last year, he’s going to be great. 另外，我有个私人消息要宣布：我要当爸爸了！（如果你的反应是“你不是刚生了 37 个孩子吗”，是的，没错。为我祈祷吧。）我计划从八月中旬休假到十月初，但现在随时都有可能迎来宝宝。所以如果我突然消失了，原因就在这儿！和去年一样，我休假期间将由我的同事 Jay Peters 接手《Installer》，相信他会像去年一样表现出色。
But for now, I’m still here! I also have for you a new superhero movie, a new take on an old game, some great Musk-related comedy, and much more. Let’s do it. 但目前，我还在岗！我还为你准备了一部新的超级英雄电影、一款经典游戏的全新演绎、一些关于马斯克的精彩喜剧等等。让我们开始吧。
The Drop / 精选推荐
Spider-Man: Brand New Day. The Tom Holland Spidey era just never seems to miss. It’s pretty impressive to pull off a more or less full story reboot while keeping all the same actors and characters, but by all accounts this one pulls it off. Since I still can’t get IMAX Odyssey tickets, this one’s at the top of my to-watch list. 《蜘蛛侠：崭新的一天》。 汤姆·赫兰德的蜘蛛侠时代似乎从未失手。在保留所有演员和角色的同时，完成一次近乎完整的剧情重启，这令人印象深刻，而且从各方面评价来看，这部电影确实做到了。由于我还没买到 IMAX《奥德赛》的票，这部电影目前排在我观看清单的首位。
Pastebot 3. Missed this one last week! Great clipboard managers are right up there with launchers and text expanders in the “how did I ever use a computer without this” category, and Pastebot is one of the Mac’s best. The new version has smart organization options, support for all kinds of media, and much more. The kind of app you’ll find new uses for… forever. Pastebot 3。 上周错过了这个！优秀的剪贴板管理器与启动器、文本扩展器一样，都属于那种“我以前没这玩意儿是怎么用电脑的”类别的工具，而 Pastebot 是 Mac 上最好的工具之一。新版本拥有智能整理选项、对各种媒体的支持等等。这是一款你会不断发现新用途的……永恒应用。
President Curtis. I was going to describe this as “basically a Rick and Morty spinoff” before I realized it’s actually a Rick and Morty spinoff. Perhaps unsurprisingly, people seem to either love it or hate it. I think most of us would agree R&M is not what it once was, but the idea of throwing all its chaotic energy into the US government does pay off at least a few times. And it’s not not political commentary, you know? 《柯蒂斯总统》。 我本来想把它描述为“基本上是《瑞克和莫蒂》的衍生剧”，后来才意识到它确实就是。不出所料，人们对它的评价两极分化。我想我们大多数人都同意《瑞克和莫蒂》已不复当年，但将那种混乱的能量注入美国政府的想法，至少在某些时刻还是奏效的。而且，这多少也算是一种政治评论，你懂的。

I buried the lede here: The biggest new thing of the week, at least in my book, is Instapaper 10. Instapaper is one of the original read-later apps, and has continued to be among the best on the market. After some weird ownership stuff over the years, Instapaper has been in the hands of Brian Donohue, who has been steadily improving the service in lots of ways. This week’s launch comes with a really nice redesign, a way better web app, and a lot of helpful organization and reading tools. I’ve been testing it, and I think it’s back to being my go-to recommendation for reading apps. (For power users I still think Readwise is the move.) 我把重点放在了最后：本周最大的新闻，至少在我看来，是 Instapaper 10 的发布。Instapaper 是最早的“稍后阅读”应用之一，并且一直是市场上最好的应用之一。在经历了多年所有权变更的波折后，Instapaper 现在由 Brian Donohue 接手，他一直在多方面稳步改进这项服务。本周推出的新版本带来了非常精美的重新设计、体验更好的网页版，以及许多实用的整理和阅读工具。我一直在测试它，我认为它重新成为了我首选的阅读应用推荐。（对于高级用户，我仍然认为 Readwise 是更好的选择。）
