probably deploys ransomware to children’s hospitals

Google saw this coming years ago. That’s why they restructured, clearly defining their different services, and became Alphabet.

UI designers have had a war on information density for a loooooong time.

Did they comment on why it was deleted? I didn’t see anything in the article. I recall the consensus was that they made so many mistakes the only way to fix it was deletion of the repo.

I also saw in one of the comments of the Arstechnica article that the one who pushed for open-source wanted to clean up the code before publishing. Management said no, the entire team got fired/left, and suddenly the code got published with all that commercial stuff left in. Sounds about right.

I’m the kind of person who has no issues with moving on from a game with only 20% of the achievements/trophies unlocked after beating the final boss. If it’s not fun, it’s not fun.

I think the only two games I set out to 100% were probably Super Mario World, or Donkey Kong Country 2.

Intel announces two generations of defective processors and AMD gives up that opportunity to recall their own launch? Must be something very wrong with the batch.

Forgive my ignorance, but an apartment where the landlord is removed and people just pay building maintenance is… a condominium, no?

I love how the arstechnica article words it like you will never need FAT32 and it’s silly to consider it.

I had to download fat32format I don’t know how many times because I needed to format an extra large SD Card or USB drive for some device. Microsoft really shafted exFAT’s adoption with their licensing.

The “we know better than you” attitude Microsoft has. They’ve very slowly removed more and more power user functionality. Almost every customization has to be hacked in with a group policy or registry edit now, or by outright replacing explorer.exe

It was supposed to patch Secure Boot, not demolish GRUB.

That’s why it’s a problem.
