   I didn't see an option not to sign-in on my last two attempts at installing it. I will check again now. It says 28 Gb of my hard drive needs to be used for this IDE if I check all the boxes during install.

   I don't want to be forced to login to software before I use it. Also, Microsoft can't be trusted. Look at the keylogger in Windows 10, for example. PyCharm is a good Python IDE. You can get a lot of these features in Emacs (or try

   Google has advertisements for Chrome on their search page -- that's why they have a large market share. They also spread a lot of propaganda about Chrome's being faster. In reality, Chrome is intentionally designed to slow users d
