Why though, it's a feature they did not pay for. It is horrible UX to show the button for disabled features of course, but if you've been told from the get go that you need to pay for feature X, why would you be pissed that featur

I've said this on Reddit before, but the current Gnome is excellent for someone who loves it and only needs a few changes to make it work for you. Personally, I like how everything works (you could also say that this is some form of St

Even if you have a top 1% home theater set up (and I do), the HBO Max release uses the cinematic aspect ratio (2.40:1?) with giant letterboxes top and bottom throughout, which cuts out a giant proportion out of the scenes filmed on IMAX cam

Roads in the US are too straight and too wide to force drivers to be more deliberate in how they drive. They should have curves, speed bumps, etc. In general anything to force drivers to drive slower around pedestrians, and to reduce the nu

I think it is probably much, much less harder (as a young, healthy person) to get from relatively unfit to running a marathon in 4:20 compared to getting from that 4:20 to the 2:10 that the elite marathon runners do. It's probably a lo

Discrimination does not need to be overt, mostly it's insidious, cloaked in vague statements such as "culture fit". And no, not everyone is considered equal. There are many (or at the very least non-zero) racists, sexists, ho

It should not be the default; it's a waste of scarce horizontal pixels on something you may not need to use all the time. Alt+Tab is sufficient for seeing which Windows are open, and switching among them.

Alt+` (key above tab on most keyboards) should allow you to switch between windows of the same application. So you do alt+tab till you get to your browser, then alt+` to pick the right browser window.

I don't know about refunding here, but I love that whenever you cancel Prime, you receive a prorated refund for the unused portion of the period you had paid for.
