Meh. I'm also a Linux destop user on a second machine. I'll completely switch when Windows 11 becomes a problem for me. Microsoft used to be a OS company, but is now a cloud company that offers Linux on it's cloud services.

I'm happy with Windows 11 after tweaks to fix it. I certainly sympathesize with Windows 10 users who can't upgrade. But it seems to me Windows 10 users aren't getting the message: Microsoft just isn't that into you. Do y

You're right, it's not a productive comment and I would delete it if I could. I don't like how Texas Republicans operate but that's another topic.

I guess we're a family of geniuses because with our IQ halved our younger members have gone into successful professional careers.

I recently discovered AutoHotKey and their subreddit. Your example is a cool feature I didn't know about. I'm looking forward to using AHK. https://old.reddit.com/r/AutoHotkey/

The strongest military in the world and a traditional supporter of Europe is of no use to you. Right now. I'm curious to see how that works out for you.

I can't foster understanding in you of the conservative American view but I can say good luck defending yourself against Putin without American help.

The dream of virtual reality still lives. It wasn't VR that was lacking, it was Zuckerberg's design and implementation that failed.

We in America should change our name to "The United States of Greed" and be done with it. There would be less confusion that way.

I wonder what delusions Hegseth is operating under? That's he's above the law and Trump's immunity is his? Trump is not going to live forever. Hegseth thinks he's General Patton except Patton was exceptionally well read

Dart is much closer to C# than Go is

Microsoft acts when it feels competitive pressure. I think Google's Flutter has been validated so Microsoft feels the need to respond.
