Windows 11 is getting a new start menu. EDIT: this replaces the "all apps" page by default, not the home screem
  • Oh for fucks sake, auto categorization is one of the thing I dreaded the most on iOS because it's almost always incorrect and it doesn't fit my usage at all. Hopefully it will be possible to disable this crap.

    End of an era: Nova Launcher's parent company lays off practically everyone
  • I still use version 7 of Nova, it's the only launcher in the market that knows how to handle icons. Any other is frankly a disaster, they can't make them look good at all.

    Review: The Galaxy Z Flip 6 is an old phone in new clothes
  • I dont know about bloat people keep talking about, I actually use Samsung apps since they're very good... And I dont see any dip in performance or battery, so I'd like to know where are you people coming from.

    The beginning of the end
  • In Brazil Bolsonaro staged a knife attack and used it every time he needed to gain sympathy from its followers. It wouldn't surprise me one bit if Trump did the same.

    Microsoft has gone too far: including a Game Pass ad in the Settings app ushers in a whole new age of ridiculous over-advertising
  • Adobe Creative Cloud, which despite the name is pretty much local. And although Microsoft Office works online, it has a series of issues that the desktop version doesn't have, like broken formatting on Word.

  • The thing that irks me the most is that those things work. They'll see a little complain from the most vocal ones, and that's it. The revenue will increase, their shareholders will be pleased, the OS will be worse, and we'll have no viable alternative.

    Unless governments start to regulate the hell out of tech companies, it's only downhill from there.

    Edit: about Linux, it's not viable if you're outside IT or rely on commercial software. That's a debate for another post.

    Firefox user loses 7,470 opened tabs saved over two years after they can’t restore browsing session
  • Tab Stash people, its the perfect extension for tab hoarders like me. It saves and closes all your opened tabs as bookmarks with a single click, and gives you a neat view of everything you saved.

    India to mandate USB-C connectors on smartphones and laptops by 2026
  • Ah yes, let's go back to that amazing time of pure innovation where every fucking company had their own connector standard for data, power and audio. Good times.

  • Hear me out: if someone believes in horoscopes, they know what each sign mean. Which means they recognise themselves into a sign. Which means they will mostly act in ways to conform to that sign, giving you a way to figure that person out. The sign tells it all, it's a self-fulfilling prophecy.

  • Can someone recommend songs about going to life alone and feeling good about it? There's too much depressing stuff about loneliness around. All I have on my playlist for now is:

    Whitesnake - Here I go again

    Morrissey - I'm OK by myself

    Jimi Hendrix - Stone Free

    The Beaches - Me & me

    www.neowin.net Windows 11's new AI feature makes it way too easy to steal everything you viewed or typed

    Windows 11's Recall is a brand-new headline feature for Copilot+ PCs. While the idea is interesting, researchers say it makes it way too easy to steal everything you viewed or typed on your computer.

    Oh, you're saying that Recall is a privacy nightmare and a sweet target for malware? Surprised_pikachu.jpg

    I was looking around for some GPS equipment for my motorcycle and came across some dirt cheap (in comparison) cycling computers with GPS tracking. This got me wondering, has anyone tried it? Since I don't need nor want all that fancy stuff like tracking, consumption, points of interest, etc, and just want a map, a route and something to show the way, would that be a good idea?

    It's not that I can't. The problem is that when I'm with someone, I deeply yearn to be alone. I'd love to have my life for myself, with no responsibility with no one else - just me.

    But then, when I'm alone, I feel like a failure, like I need a relationship to feel complete, and I fucking hate that. So I end up in another relationship, and after two years I can't stand it anymore, and the cycle repeats.

    What the hell. Has anyone suffered from something like that? How can you be alone and not feel lonely? How to kill this need to be with someone?

    EDIT: Thanks for all the answers, I'm taking every single one into consideration. Please, keep them coming.

    It's upside-down world here, people. Downvoted away, that is the true hallmark of an unpopular opinion.

    Let's say that I have this one movie that is finished that I spent 80 million to make. I decided to "write it off". So when I get to pay my taxes, do I get a 80 million discount?

    Just saw on Titus Tech Talk that torrents are last decade, and newsgroups is where it's at for this stuff. Of course he didn't elaborate, so I need some help here.

    What is he talking about, and what are these groups that can I enter er, avoid?

    Pretty much the question. I heard about Usenet a while back but never managed to wrap my head around it.

    In the last 5 to 10 years everything seems to suck: product's and services quality plummeted, everything from homes to cars to food became really expensive, technology stopped to help us to be something designed to f@ck with us and our money, nobody seems to be able to hold a job anymore, everyone is broke. Life seems worse in general.

    Why? Did COVID made this happen? How?

    So far I found that l/motorcycles is the biggest and most active on lemmy.world, is there any other that my search couldn't find?

    A feature that seems missing from all além-mundo apps is a way to browse instances I’m not signed. Say I’m at lemmy.ml and find a post I like from lemmy.world. I’d like to see what else lemmy.world has to offer, so listing the communities there would be awesome.

    To me that’s the worst part of the fediverse, not being able to browser neighbors communities. This feature would bridge this gap and make using the fediverse more pleasurable.
