That's the definition of a conflict of interest...

I like the necrons, and the admech since they share a lot of themes.

They have the best tech, their vision of time is completely skewed and they look badass. Plus their story is profoundly sad and makes you think about your sense of self.

In addition to other comments, it's a terrible replacement for forums. Information gets buried quickly, is hard to sort and search through, and conversations get scrambled.

Smokers.

Everything that people liked about 7 was a thing in Vista. AFAIK, people hate on Vista for performance, the automatic updates and the admin access pop-ups. The first one is because they tried to upgrade old XP hardware, a new system ran fine. 7 didn't really increase performance, people just had new computers by that point. The other 2 issues never changed since, people just got used to them.

8 had an amazing search feature that got completely garbled in 10. The "start menu" wasn't well received, but worked fine. 10 brought back a smaller compromise version of it. 10 also has much more telemetry, came with the Cortana and default edge Bing searches and had overall a much less pleasant experience.

I feel like Vista and 8 get a bad rep because they where so different from the previous ones, even though they rolled some of that into the successors and worked really well. And 10 really accelerated the enshitification of Windows.

I feel like I'm alone in this but Vista was great. I preferred it and 8 over 7 and 10.

It's from Lemmy.world

To a point, yeah. But when it's -40 outside, heating to 18 or 21 doesn't make much of a difference energy wise.

You can also middle mouse click in the empty spaces next to the tabs

Wireless means you have to deal with batteries. I'd rather plug stuff in and never worry about it.

Standard time is better for the health of the population, especially in teens. There's a ton of research on the subject.

Yeah, I've used it when I'm looking for a specific function I don't know the name of, and then I go read the documentation.

Ignorance.

Slay the dragon.

Go play it. It's worth it.

PP coming in next year to do the same here though...

Not with the conservatives in power

It feels like the dlc wasn't playtested at all, at least not on monsoon

Kids today barely know what a file is. I have to regularly explain folders and file types. When I asked them where they saved a thing, they answer "On the computer" and look at me like I'm crazy for asking that.

Change the time everyday throughout the year to keep a constant sunrise time

Morning light is also a big health benefit. Going to permanent DST would mess people up, especially school children that would effectively start school 1h earlier.
