I hope they’re just patenting this to prevent other manufacturers from doing it.
Even if you can’t cleanly remove it, you can probably delete a few system files and break it. It’s not like the whole thing will be baked into kernel32.dll.
Wired xbox controller for PC games.
Wired switch controller for Nintendo emulation.
I happen to have both consoles and they work instantly over USB.
This sounds like an improvement, if anything. I know I’m opening a file I downloaded. I don’t need a warning. I need it to execute, because that’s the instruction I gave.
So, Disney+ gift cards carry no value at Disneyland, but the Disney+ death waiver does?
This is because AI is usually used to reduce the human cost to the company, and rarely to reduce the human labour for the customer.
That, or mass surveillance.
I’ve been separating OS and data partitions since I was a kid running Windows 95. It’s horrifying that people don’t expect and prepare for machines to become unbootable on a regular basis.
Hell, I bricked my work PC twice this year just by using the Windows cleanup tool - on Windows 11. The antivirus went nuclear, as antivirus products do.
I updated a surface pro this morning and it was a huge effort just to log back in. Like, it took several minutes to get through all the prompts, login errors and finally land on the desktop.
Now I need to check if OneDrive installed itself again.
Cowabunga it is.
A spell checker is pretty useless. It’s not a word processor. I just want to very quickly open a text file and perhaps make a small edit. I would usually use it for config files.
Syntax highlighting for xml, JSON, yaml and CSV would be a much more useful feature. gEdit on gnome really nails the lightweight but useable text editor.
Also, would it kill them to use a rolling buffer instead of loading and rendering an entire 500MB file before rendering the first 30 lines on screen?
People say “just use [editor]”, but it’s no good when you’re configuring someone else’s prod environment 7 proxies deep, and all you can use is notepad.
CF is still used in high-end DSLRs. Like, it’s still the “premium” storage option.
CD burning is still kinda useful for hifi. I wouldn’t use it for data these days.
Iomega ZIP disks. Those things just clicked all day.
12·3 months agoPrinters are always horrible to administer. Brother are typically the best on Linux. I wrote a massive instructional blog a few weeks ago because it took so much work to get my HL-3150CDN working over USB. I had to repackage a Frankenstein’s monster of a driver because my printer never got 64-bit CUPS filters.
Even if they do get the VBR encoding perfect, you’ll still get people on bad connections that will only have a buffer underrun when a dude shows up in a sparkly suit.
Vortex is written in .Net, so, yeah.
You’ve just said your 5 biggest problems with Linux are things that Microsoft did.
That’s like, a million people’s wages. Absurd.
Artificial intelligence built upon real stupidity.
