Don't get anoyed at gdpr for that. Websites could perfectly operate with those banners being non-intrusive, they choose not to.

5 Reminders NOT to Pre-Order Games This Year ~ We used to demand trials before buying before, what happened? ~ Stop Pre ordering Games

Steam's Next fest has brought back some demos on PC. You might not get a demo for a big IP, but you can try lots of smaller dev games without having to buy first.

No that's internet explorer. They "removed" it, but really it's just hidden in a way so you can't run it directly.

Some communities weren't large enough to get isps to come out and lay infrastructure. Being that the church was typically at the centre, these churches found a community project in setting up these mini wisps. The ones I heard of were selling more or less at cost, to locals only. I presume they are still like that, but don't know for sure.

Honestly just having a laser/led printer removes so many of the problems with printers. All inkjets should be replaced.

Also remember to backup before things break. I once diligently backed up a system image before an upgrade. But I backed up a already failed SD card.

Yea, but as you can see, it's really just a browser added ontop. When they made xp, it was so deeply rooted it was silly. Windows explorer panels used it, I think the help reader application (remember that?) was completely re-written on it. Anything that didn't look like a standard dialog from 2k or before, used the web engine for the UI. Hell you could even set the desktop to a webpage.
It was ahead of its time, but in a bad way.

How did Lemmy.world become more popular than Lemmy.ml?

I don't know, but it might be that Reddit is only limiting API keys for authenticated sessions. That way the anonymous requests still work up to the free API rate limits.

Yea I've always found that complaint odd. I just assumed everyone who makes it also has the activate windows watermark, and thus can't access the option.

installing windows in a nutshell

That stopped working for home editions of windows. On pro you can say you are joining a local domain, but on home you have to use a workaround, such as the bypass command or a locked out account.

Microsoft has gone too far: including a Game Pass ad in the Settings app ushers in a whole new age of ridiculous over-advertising

Yea it annoys me too, you can switch it back, but I can't do that every time I'm working on someone's computer.

Youtube added shorts to the subscriptions page, pushing the subscriptions almost entirely off the page...

I did this years ago when it was added to home, not seen shorts since. Good guide.

You could say I am a bit of a copy/paste expert..
Reply in thread
I sometimes feel like I go all the way around. I find a fix for a problem that says: just copy and paste this. I then spend 3 hours or more reading and trying to understand the snippet, or do it directly. Then I realise the fix is to just copy and paste that original snippet.
I guess at least I now understand why everyone just does that for that problem.

Have they fixed the store version so it can do multiple monitors yet? Also local folder redirects?

In terms of user content this would be correct. However when it comes to games on the platform valve does do curation to ensure games run etc. I don't know if it has been tested, but that curation could exclude them from the protection. If that was the case they could be directly sued for copyright infringement.
