Same could be said about 90% of things humans do.

While I agree, we don’t do enough, can you say your job directly impacts the environment for the positive? If not, then you, like me, like them, are part of the problem.

What if I’m looking for something but the page has changed?

Nothing in an electronic device, save for a very overvolted capacitor, could come anywhere near to as explosive as these were. Even LiPo batteries don’t explode like that.

These were explosives planted in the devices when being manufactured.

Not sure if you’ve seen videos of the explosions or the aftermath.

I told my manager that I’ve been burned and can’t make myself work hard for another company again. She’s leaving so there’s no vested interest in the company for her. But yeah, fuck these cunts.

Are you also finding copilot to be less helpful of late? The other day it couldn’t follow the simplest of instructions

The Win10 one can be pretty handy if set up nicely.

Plasma gasification can self sustain and generate power

It’s so fucking weird

I guess, but I dunno, that still seems dubious to me.

I never understood why people would want polluted air and water, blows my mind.

Cool, with the phone on silent (which I don’t do) I’d have missed that too, and would have been cancelled and rescheduled.

This adamant denial that phone calls are useful is weird.

Tell that to the delivery driver that called me because they were outside with my groceries.

Only if it’s right by you or isn’t in your bag or something. Hence audible alerts, they break through the physical barriers.

I don’t really get the whole not answering the phone thing. I hate phonecalls but I always answer my phone.

The amount of important calls I’d have missed if I buried my head in the sand like that is insane.

Sure if 90% of the calls were sales or scams I’d think differently, but there are ways to prevent that too.

I find it weird that everyone has their phone on silent all the time too. If mine was on silent I’d never look at it unless I’m bored.

I guess that’s fair, but then keep the button on the left.

Similarly but not quite. I also have stuff pinned, but the quick launch also allows you to have a menu that you can open with a list of apps too. The icons are also much closer together, so in the space of 5 pinned icons, I can have 11 quick launch icons.

You know it!

Just shout if you want the step file.

Sorry, it’s Quicklaunch.

I have my most used applications there so I never have to hit the start button.

I couldn’t get past the Taskbar long enough to not hate it unfortunately. I also missed quicklinks, which I use a lot.
