I can only assume that is the main reason for this change. Pitty.

Just in case anyone thinks nextcloud is the solution, it isn't. Can't do two way sync at all on Android.

I would recommend "Sophia script". It is a highly customizable debloat script for Windows 10 & 11.

While I fully agree with the SSD side, you seem to ignore that HDDs are also getting cheaper per TB (always have, and usually quite noticeably). Also the reliability of large to huge SSDs remains to be seen as well. Obviously a breakthrough in HDD technology would have an influence as well, as you mentioned.

I'm not saying SSDs aren't here to take over, they surely will eventually (preferably sooner), but I think it'll be a few more years until we got actual price parity per TB. Even when ignoring other aspects like reliability.

I've used windows since the 90s. Not once have I intentionally used WordPad.

It did open by default for some file types for a long time (.doc), usually mangling the content cause it couldn't actually handle them properly. I think it was also the default for .txt files at some point, causing many curse words when editing plain text files, that invisibly weren't so plain any more after... Programs expecting a configuration fine really don't like that sort of thing.

So: I'm very ok with this. Just install LibreOffice or something if you needa Word-like experience. Install notepad++ for anything "plain".

Scroll down a bit in this article. There's a list of what each of the available keys are required to provide. A "key" in this context is basically a notch in a certain location, which then defines the meaning of the various pins of the connector. Some devices have multiple keys, as some of the specifications have a common subset. Like key A+E is common, because E provides almost everything that A does, so a device that only requires the common interfaces can work in both. Cars that rely on one of the exclusive interfaces will have the specific key of course. This A+E communication is often used for WiFi cards.

Sockets always only have one key though, for obvious reasons.

Edit: correction/clarification

Any password manager should be able to "type in" the password. Or be a browser plugin that doesn't rely on copy pasting, but use other mechanisms to inject it directly into the field.

But yes, if that's their online portal, I am not kidding I would change banks.

That story is genuinely hilarious. And from the judges summary judgement it really does sound like the license holder of the disputed songs did some legal juggling just to be able to play the victim and sue Spotify. What an odd business plan...

Funny how you seem to imply that nobody likes to use self checkout.

The "key" of an m.2 defines what the pins mean, basically what signal they carry (PCIe, USB, ...). There's a nice table here, if you scroll down a bit. Some are extensions to others, and are pin compatible (meaning the things they have in common are on the same pins).

A key and E key are very similar, while E just provides a few more interfaces, but importantly A doesn't provide anything the E doesn't. So any card that can work in A can also work in E. This is why A+E is so common: they don't require the Mainboard to provide E, only A, but both will work so both notches are present.

Yup, that's the correct reaction.

is under active development.

The latest release is from 2018 though? So they just refuse to call something "stable" and everyone has to pick between nightly and beta or something?
