I don’t fucking know why I can’t eject USB hard drives. I installed the SysInternals apps, and best they can tell me is that Dropbox is fucking with the drives. I explicitly told Dropbox to not fuck with USB drives. I don’t know who’s lying, I just want whoever is fucking with the drives to stop fucking with the drives, OK??? OK.


Windows has that button, but only if you right-click the drive in file explorer and select “eject”. The dialog is very similar, but has the option to continue anyways. That option doesn’t appear when ejecting from the taskbar.
Which is weird, because it means that Microsoft went out of their way to make two different, almost identical dialogs. And they made the better one harder to reach.
Microsoft are giving brilliant at having both a million different equally useless errors and duplicate functionality
Either that or they were added at different times by two different teams with two different design philosophies.
yeah a fresh windows 11 install has like 20 different control panels, all built at different times by different teams using different UI toolkits. It’s basically their philosophy to not unify anything but instead just keep bolting new things to different pieces of the OS, no matter how similar
It’s because they don’t want to break compatibility with existing software. Which I understand, because if they broke old software then people could just migrate to Linux as well
It’s definitely that one
Might have been at the same time even
Incredible intel. Thanks!
I use AMD, but thank you.
This is why nobody likes computer nerds.
Puns? Puns are why nobody likes nerds? Of all the things to complain about in the world, puns are such an issue for non-nerds?
Weakness, get gud scrubs.
It was joke
