  • To defend myself, I'm not a native speaker and we only have a single word for both conceps. So to me these are synonyms because my language doesn't differentiate between the two.

    Even after looking up some definitions they pretty synonymous to me.

  • Oof… My language doesn't differentiate between types of envy, we have one word. So I cannot even translate this.

  • That's how language works. You could say that a similar thing happened to the suffix -core. Where originally it was ment to be used with one word – a certain musical genre. Now, however, I can append it to anything and it means just a general esthetic.

    As for rougelike, it no longer means a game that's like Rouge. It means a game where you losing means starting over, where playing more doesn't necessarily mean the game gets easier due to accumulated XP, wealth, gear or whatevet other mechanic.

  • After how the Withcher was butchered, I'd like to see less adaptations.

  • I wouldn't consider it superior, just different, in case of a keyboard shortcut.

  • Sometimes people manage other computers so it's not practical to configure all of them and you can't trust what people have configured for the power button

  • no

  • I saw other people mentioning managing multiple computers in an offise space. I wouldn't trust that everybody wound configure the power button action.

  • Oh no, whatever will you do with healthcare?!

  • It's an easier click target when it's in the corner. Moving cursor from the middle to the corner is negligible for me since I can reach the whole screen with relatively minor mouse movement.

    In the end it's a muscle memory thing for me. Having the button in the middle just means I have to look for it in a different location than I've used to over the years.

  • But wont this change how search is displayed? Honestly, I hope I can keep my alphabetical order. Learning some algorithmic categorization is not what I want to spend my time at work.

  • I just Alt + F4 from the desktop or just press the power button. I always change it to regular old shutdown.

  • Never thought about ultrawide screens, that makes sense. Other than that I see no improvement whatsoever. Corner space is way easier to hit with a mouse, but even when using keyboard shortcuts having it in the middle is just an additional adjustment from what it used to be.

    An OS should get out of my way and let me do what I do. Changing design language forces me to relearn what I had already had a flow for. In other words it's utterly useless.

    And I just know I'm gonna hate that automatic categorisation of apps, just as I hate web searches from start menu. Alphabetical order is predictable, but this I'd have to relearn.

  • Even after noticing the difference they all look the same to me. Same bust, same hips.

  • For a minute I was sitting there and thinking: "They're all the same, what kind of choice is that.". But then I saw that some of them have gloves.
