No, not just Microsoft services or features (or subscription based software), ads for games and apps on their store get jammed in the start menu as well. And as other commenters ha…

What makes you think this is unique to Chinese tech companies? Windows 11 put ads in our start menu.

I wouldn't be surprised if there was some light brigading going on from rivals. There's also some really lazy frontend devs out there that get indignant about testing on Firefox. C…

This is from Troy Hunt of Have I Been Pwned fame and I'm almost positive that even in the last year he still gets legal threats from companies that he contacts about embarrassing s…

It's always going to be something lightweight and probably tiling for me. Right now I'm using Sway because I'm doing the Wayland thing and I'm a sucker for /r/unixporn type desktop…

Yeah but honestly, it's sounds automatable enough.

I'd recommend andOTP here as it is open source and not tied to any company that's trying to sell you anything.

It's actually an awful idea. The whole benefit of working for a large company is that you DON'T need to sacrifice outside of your 9-5. This is that outdated grind mentality that ma…

THIS. Please ask your coworkers for help. If the company isn't a toxic shithole your colleagues will be happy to help out. Modern screen sharing, code pairing and mobbing tools hav…

I'd be more optimistic about AR and VR if it hadn't been almost immediately monopolised by Facebook and Google. Now instead of actual creativity we get VR Walmart, using 3D UX deci…

You're making things up; who are these Linux users demanding anything? Generally speaking once a game developer gets it working on Ubuntu the Arch wiki guys will happily figure out…

How is this better than PeerTube?

It IS a fork of Emby, however, which is quite similar to Plex in how it behaves. Crucially, Jellyfin does not make you log into someone elses website for your own content. Don't yo…

Why pay an older software engineer a high rate for a wealth of experience when you can hire two graduates who won't make a 25 year old trust fund baby tech bro feel inadequate

Linux and Steam OS will continue to be an escape hatch, it is in their business interests to continue hedging their bets. Just because the Microsoft Store didn't pan out a few year…

One of reddit's most common in-jokes is the moderation team on /r/the_donald banning literally anyone who wasn't pro-Trump while allowing white supremacist posts on their subreddit…
