That's pretty funny considering the amount of tech consumers that hate having subscriptions attached to their hardware. There's no happy ending :^)

Oh yeah, that would be awesome. I’ve searched for a proper tkl layout in laptops. There’s the current layout in Frame.work which is think is probably the worst, then current Macbook, then finally HP Omen (tkl) (but its kind of a shitty laptop).

Ive also seen a laptop with the arrow keys slightly offset downward.

The rant is probably around convenience. How hard is it to offer one-click migration of your data from one account to the other? I guess pretty hard, since they don't support it.

My example is Google Play Music, which they migrated to Youtube Music. They probably offered to merge accounts at the time, I don't remember, but I ended up with two Youtube accounts with different playlists that I couldn't merge or transfer data easily. I had to do an annoying dance to recreate my playlists from one account in the other.

What's the alternative?

I hate pagination, nothing feels efficient to me. Fortunately, I've never worked on anything that required scale hehe..

To me, ever since Windows introduced virtual desktops, that’s basically my main way to switch between documents. That and having multiple screens to show most of my windows all the time. The taskbar mainly becomes an app launcher. I’m surprised so many people here complaint about using the taskbar like in Windows XP.

>Left isn't particularly powerful in the US

There's always the mistake of assuming the person means the US Left as opposed to another country's Left movement, but the Left as understood within the US is quite powerful. It seems really as if both movements divide the country in two.

With IFS, they could still manufacture their designs. Maybe, I'm not sure.

Yeah, it will inevitably be changed to be allowed only on idle, like you can't pair a bluetooth device when you're rolling. It's actually annoying when the copilot wants to play his music.

Considering the previous extraordinary claim that it may be less severe, I would’ve like a breakdown of the reported population, and numbers for the hospitalization rate even if it’s similar to delta.

Oh, you made me google if there were in Quebec and finally they are being rolled out, starting from Dec. 20th. Took them long enough, but nice!

Abd why can’t we test at home? Looking forward to pill treaments and cheap home tests. Vaccines weren’t enough it seems, odd that’s all we talked about in the media

Did you have a look at the house? It’s pretty funny to think it might have been considered a landmark by some.

Not only Risc-V, but Arm chips as well with their partnership with Qualcomm. I resl’y like their IFS initiative.

A recession caused by the government stopping corporate activities. As soon as the restrictions would have been relaxed for good (and I think we can say that we're finally in the clear, even tough Omicron worries (I personally think it will be similar to Delta)), the economy would've restarted just as well.

I've been wondering who's developping Uno, what's their business plan? Is it like Red Hat, people are paying for support agreements?

I don't know why you say conservative minority. I'd argue that it benefits whoever the majority is.

In Quebec, Canada, it's the liberal party. A blend of progressives and conservatives, but it seems to me they are more progressive than not. Imagine voting for conservatives here during the federal elections, when you know that the province just doesn't like conversatives that much. They only have a chance when the liberals get the people very mad.

In the USA, I think there're plenty of conservatives still, I wouldn't call them a minority.

Just for fun, I downloaded the Windows 11 dev VM via Hyper-V to try it out.

And you're right, the keys I mentioned don't seem to work anymore.

There's a policy called "Don't search the web or display web results in Search", which doesn't seem to work. Perhaps it requires Windows to be domain-joined?

Or perhaps they were referencing the "Turn off display of recent search entries in the File Explorer search box" policy, in which case it works. The description for that policy doesn't mention web results at all, which is odd. Anyway, you will have to kill SearchHost.exe for the policy to take effect, it will be launched automatically when initiating a new search.

How so? I'm running Windows Pro 21H1, and the registry key works. Or perhaps it's a GPO?

I don't get it.

Bing has been around for so long now, and it's always been mediocre. Surely it's not a profit center. Anyone have insight about that?

If so, what are they trying to gain? Is it a rogue PM at Bing or Edge or Windows shitting it up for everyone else?

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Search

Set to 0 the following keys (add them if needed)

- BingSearchEnabled (DWORD)

- CortanaConsent (DWORD)

I've been running w/ those since Windows 1903, and that's why I don't care about all those Edge shenanigans (except the default browser switcher).

All those sub-par web experiences in the Windows Shell are tiresome. Taskbar search breaking because of internet issues tops it all off nicely.

It's disappointing that they want it to be exclusive to VS (that giant turtle) right now, but it's a new Hot Reload feature. For most existing .NET devs, it's business as usual.

It may set a trend in which VS is pushed as the tool of choice to develop in .NET, which would be a total bummer. I'm a bit skeptical about this since they would be damaging their huge investment in VSCode and cmdline tools. As far as I know, Azure is still their priority. What happened to their leadership to cause such a reversal? Pressure to sell more VS licenses? Maybe, but it still seems doubtful.

I'm giving them the benefit of the doubt until they either explain themselves better, or they release .NET 7 without any goodies to the cmdline devs.

I understand the huge disappointment but there’s a bit of hyperbole there. Anyway, lets hope they reconsider w/ .net 7. At the pace they’re going, in a years time.

I'd like to add that web performance in Android was terrible, last time I had a Nexus 2. Collapsing threads on Hackner News was terribly slow. Any Discourse forum site was almost unusable. Then I switched to an iPhone and it was much better.

Anyway, I just mean that "modern" mobile sites couldn't have taken over native apps on Android. Its web engine is just not performing well enough.

>I saw in Visa data that 70% of women's spend (concentrated around young women), was similarly on debit or cards in other people's names

That's so odd. Studies on this outcome would be interesting.

Just to add on that, DG1 was comparable to integrated graphics, but just in a discrete form factor. It was a tiny bit better because of higher frequency, I think. But even then it wasn't better in all cases, if I recall correctly.

Huh, how weird. How are those stimulis generated? Through the mother's eyes or brain activity?

With the advent of the internet and the new generations of Quebecers being mostly online, as well as being generally more educated in english than their parents through standard school curriculum, I expect this to change in the next hundred years. I’m 28 years old now and I welcome this future, being isolated has a great price.

What about all the common folks that do the same? You don't have to be a millionnaire to benefit from this "trick". It's merely proper planning.

Nigel Tao, when he announced it and later when he posted about it on HN:

I really love this pattern. However let me rant on two poor implementations in the Windows world: the experience is heavily dependent on the startup speed, and the immutability of the items presented. The Windows taskbar search has neither speed nor order reliability, and Visual Studio’s Quick Menu is terribly slow to even pop up. Office also implemented it as a Quick Menu, similar to Visual Studio, and it’s not very fast either. It’s a real bummer.

Edit: PowerTools also includes an Alfred-like launcher, and its pretty feature full. if it could pop up consistenly (its a bit buggy) at a reliable speed, I would replace the Windows taskbar search with it.
