They made such a retarded change where you now have the search button at the bottom, instead of at the top, but the actual search box is at the top, so you reposition the grab in order to reach to the bottom, only to then be forced to repos

That's not really an explanation. Could be named https://foo.example/bar/baz as well. I also used to ask myself why they would expose the filename of the DLL.

I'm wondering if I should defer my full system backup on the 1st of September, as the resulting file is 300+ GB. I had a BSOD last week, 0x0000012b (FAULTY_HARDWARE_CORRUPTED_PAGE), which I've never had, and was hoping it isn

According to Wendell from Level1Techs, the now-launched Jetson Thor uses a Linux Kernel built by Nvidia, on Ubuntu 20.04 [0]. So I assume getting upgrades will have the same feel as those Chinese SBC's like from Radxa or cheap Android

Google is being deceptive with their zoom demo. They zoom from 100x to 0.5x and present 0.5x as "what it actually looks like." They're making 100x zoom appear twice as impressive by using ultra-wide (0.5x) as fake 'norma
