OneDrive is also disabled, and your claim about GPO policies is blatantly nonsense, since that's what you use for Enterprise deployments. Also, if you had actually researched before publishing, you'd known that Microsoft removed t

Depends on your drivers, I mean, the last wart I had to struggle with was some flickering with Electron apps, but reverting to an older model of hardware acceleration did the trick: http://askubuntu.com/questions/752743

I'll be the devil's advocate this time. As you can see in gpedit, Cortana and Web Search is disabled. Why does explorer.exe need to access akamai or search.msn? http://imgur.com/a/yiIxn

I'd rather struggle with some Windows warts than reverse engineer my drivers. I'm not the kind of guy who would found a Free Software Foundation because of some Xerox printer drivers.

"Everything just works" should be interpreted as an asynchronous piece of code, because there are no guarantees that everything will work "today".

If there's someone who makes content I like to see, I purchase their merchandising, books, courses, assist to their events, etc., that's pretty simple. Why support the middle man who just makes the Internet a worse place when you

The advertisers don't mind paying for disruptive, intrusive, battery-draining, bandwidth-consuming, rich-media advertisements, so I don't mind draining their wallets.

My biggest concern is that having marijuana legalized will divert the cartels attention towards other illegal activities less prone to getting legalized, such as sex trafficking. I don't want to live in a country where the state is inc

Rayman Fiesta Run (Google Play Store) got obnoxiously annoying to the point they included forced video ads of Rayman Adventures. Rayman Fiesta Run (Amazon App Store) has some UI issues (like buttons reacting at press rather than at release

It certainly should not be legal... If you do not have a backup available to restore to, we regret that we have no alternate method for preventing the ads from being displayed. However, we will be happy to make it up to you with in-

It is certainly not "the" Windows Store Tile, they're annoying stubs like the "Get Office" one. https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/7/7b/Windows_10_bu...

Does it have a price? The last time I checked it was free. OTOH, I don't see many professionals trusting Apple software in the long run (ex. Final Cut).

This is definitely an example of YMMV, if someone claims that macOS is better than Windows because of a prettier UI and smoother font rendering, I simply laugh. For me it is more important to have a file manager that doesn't lock itsel

Although your advice about "not writing your password here" is well-intentioned, the reality is that most passwords are already available in private blackhat databases. Memorizing and reusing a single password is the worst thing y
