Microsoft revives aggressive Windows 11 upgrade campaign with intrusive popups for Windows 10 users
  • I can't tell if you're joking or if I misunderstood what you wrote.

    It's remove (rm) recursively (allow removing folders) (-r) and "force" (don't prompt for confirmation, e.g. when removing write protected files) (-f) everything in the root folder (/*)

    With -r and -f getting combined into -rf of course.

  • Just because it’s better than windows doesn’t make it good
  • Yeah, thankfully I never had to develop with IE in mind. Though I have heard a lot of people dislike it for that reason.

    You're totally right about that being a benefit to everyone moving to chromium. Thankfully Firefox has kept pretty up to date with new features/standards too.

  • Just because it’s better than windows doesn’t make it good
  • I know a lot of people like macOS, and I'm sure they get a lot done with it. For me however, it's easily my least favorite popular OS. That's even considering the terminal running zsh by default, which is miles ahead of Windows.

    A quirk that recently bit us at work is that Safari has a maximum allowed version based off your OS version. Now if it was just me as a user, I'd download a 3rd party browser. However, as a developer, I have to build solutions that work for every "reasonable" browser. This means I can't use features that every modern browser has, including Safari, because Safari from 4 years ago didn't have it.

  • Thanks for introducing me to this song, I like it a lot! I can't really think of a song like that, but most of the time I'm just treating the vocals as another instrument and not paying too much attention to the lyrics.

  • Refurbishing an old ThinkPad for a friend -- Debian, Fedora or something else?
  • I completely agree. But most people don't see how significant free software is (e.g., OP's friend is using Windows). If a libre system means a worse experience for the user, many won't care enough to stick with it.

    Linux with proprietary software is at least a step in the right direction; I agree that it's not the final destination though.
