Any TL;DR? Nazis gonna Nazi?

The public defenders would probably do a better job though...

And yet I never have USBC problems, but had multiple I phones that started failing to charge via the wired port.

And some cheaper brands like Sceptre make dumb TV's still.

Probably a lot. I was very annoyed myself, though it made android pretty similar to the situation on iOS where you can't replace the default messaging app anyway.

It's an area where I think we need a bunch of stuff:

  1. Antitrust regulation to force companies to use open standards and allow customization
  2. Folks like the Signal Foundation should get over themselves and run their project like a real open source project, where others can fork/modify/run both the server side and client side.

There's so much anti-competitive bullshit regarding #1 from all sides, from carriers to Apple to Google to device manufacturers.

They had a good blog post about why - their take was that SMS is dying and the replacement was a moving target that was hard to support for reasons I'm forgetting. I agree it hurt them tremendously though.

PopOS Nvidia version for Nvidia machines - much better experience.

Yeah but if the truck is free and better than your current car...

They want you to access everything through search and recently accessed because its so intuitive. It's like they want computers to be as hard to use as possible for people who need to do actual work on many projects in any sort of organized way.

Also, now that IT has integrated everything with OneDrive, I routinely have to wait for my own files to be redownloaded before accessing them.

I'm glad you are still with us, please stay.

 

Eastern Iowa - excited to finally get fruit from one of these guys. If you aren't familiar, the whole genus is worth a Wikipedia browse.
