I work pretty frequently with PS and have no issues with syntax. It's easy to read and you always have autocomplete so there is just 1 extra click to get from -r to -Recurse. Same command could be also written as this due to alias feature.
rm 'C: -r -fo
It's just not the best practice since in PowerShell it is recommended to not use aliases for readability reasons. Also less chance to mess things up due to how verbose all commands and their parameters are.
It's couple words that could have been said by anyone with nice voice and good diction. I'm probably not such person, but if you would pick 100 random people, you would get someone who could do a good job for this kind of quick announcement.
Most internal employees would even do this for free. One time payment of 200 eur seems fair.
I suppose some people expect you should get royalties every time your voice appears anywhere so in their eyes he should be a millionaire from this gig or something ridiculous like that.
You could upgrade for free since Windows 7, why is it suddenly W10 -> W11 path suspicious? There are probably several reasons why these upgrades have been free:
Microsoft wants all internet connected Windows devices to be patched. Without these free upgrades, many would probably still run W7 because for general user it still works.
People nowadays expect OS upgrades to be free at least couple times before new HW is needed.
Microsoft wants to keep dominating PC OS space
Selling Windows licenses to consumers is not the main way how Microsoft earns money, it's the business / enterprise customers that keep Microsoft floating. Larger companies pay millions per year for things like Windows client / server licenses, M365 and Azure subscriptions.
Because it's their newest OS? Why do you think there is some hidden malicious reason, all software companies want everyone to start using their newest offerings as soon as possible.
runas.exe cannot start elevated process. Exceptions seem to be MMC snap-ins so you can launch something like lusrmgr.msc or devmgmt.msc with admin account and you will have admin rights.
It's not really a problem that can be solved though. Should Taylor Swift's team earn 2x more than Kanye's? They possibly already earn above average what one usually would by supporting someone else.
She is obviously not going to refuse what people are willing to pay for her. Earnings for world famous musicians and actors always has and will be ridiculous.
There's a handy extension on both Firefox and Chromium browsers called Web Archives made by dessant / Armin Sebastian. You can right click on any URL and try to find cached copy on multiple services like Archive.org, Google cache and many more.
There is another cool extension from same dev called Search by Image that can search any image across multiple reverse image search engines.
There is no modification, it's just a handy shortcut, read about bangs here. You are not expected to use !g for all searches, only for those that you wish to search with Google. It's also possible to replicate this with browser search settings, DDG just has this built-in.
It is. Besides some very niche bugs everything in the core of PowerShell seems logical to me and easy to understand.
