You forgot the real actual reason: I don’t care about computer stuff. My current computer does what I want and I don’t care to switch.

It is okay not to have the interest in computers. I could probably change the oil on my car but I don’t care and don’t want to do the work, so I don’t do it (the mechanic does).

…because…?

I’m guessing the commentator is thinking about the Karens and Trumps out there, that uses these media to attack others, but often with a bigger reach and things that have much bigger implications.

Restricting how the algorithms of social media platforms work instead of restricting the age would be much better though

Problem is also bullying among peers. As I read somewhere, bullying in the school is (mostly) just in the school. Bullying online is everywhere at all hours of the day when you have a phone.

I agree, just have it by project. Otherwise I might have to look in different folders to find something. And what does it add, that something is grouped by language?

I remove files and folders older than 30 days in my Downloads folder. But my work does make me download things that I often only need for less than a day. If I need to keep something, then it goes into whatever folder or online service where it should be. It is deleted to my trash bin and that has another 30 days before being permanently deleted. I haven’t had to pick anything out of the trash just yet.

Come back after a vacation. Asked for all emails that I had actions in. Handled those. Later started going though my emails manually and discovered an important email with “ACTION NEEDED” and work someone directly mentioned me and the action I needed to do and a deadline. Don’t trust it that much now.

Okay, I missed the part where it can show me the apps I’m using. Where do I turn it on?

Thank you - I will try to look into this as it looks nice in the screenshots.

It mimics macOS, however, on the Mac, Apple has got every app (all the ones I use, anyway) to use the top bar for menus, meaning that it is less wasted space. But I don’t really like macOS app/window handling.

Weird… here is mine on my 15 Pro - try restarting the phone… 🤷

Option is called Lock Screen Swipe to Open Camera and is near the bottom.

I know that journey…

I’ve did some very light programming on our C64 at 7 or 8. A few years later it was .bat files to do system stuff. Not exactly C or anything but it was fun, gave me an understanding of programming and the computer. Didn’t end up going the developer road but do scripts in-house and for customers.

For me it often makes some weird animation when I start typing. It still captures what I’m writing but the whole keyboard vanishes and comes back.

This. Also, the requirement to get all unique files (guesses OP means personal files) can be hard. In theory, OP should just copy out C:\Users<username> but this also includes a lot of junk from apps. And often, it makes no sense to copy everything, like Chrome, where you’re only interested in a small part of the data and not all the cached objects. Chromium based browser profiles are huge, often with hundreds of thousands of files. You would be better off exporting the data you need and importing them into your new OS/Browser. This also makes sure you can get saved passwords as these are not something you just copy out using raw file copy.

And finally, som uses (and apps) have a habit of saving files to other places like C:\Photos and C:\Movies but also dim things like C:\IntelDriverUpdate (made up name), that also makes it hard for a tool to find the personal files.

At least Mac has the whole menu bar going for it. I started out on GNOME but the empty bar in the top just bothered me. Then I went XFCE but I kept running into small annoyances, that probably could be fixed somehow but I don’t really have time to fight/tweak my computer. And now I’m on Plasma and so far it just works and the small tweaks I have done were quick.

Domestic Economic Terrorism! Like, not buying our products! They will have to protect the shareholders and cut down on locations and staff.

That is just so sad that it’s the way you have to do business. Constant praising and sucking up.

Yes. And it sucks if your native language is English, as that will go across multiple regions. If your website was only available in Swedish, then you could easily argue that your website was not meant for people in England.

But as long as you do business - and you very much do so when you have users there that looks at ads that generate money to you - then that country can say that you have to follow the laws there.

Another good example is GDPR. When GDPR became active, you could run into many websites that blocked EU countries as they were not yet GDPR compliant and/or didn’t want to be. And cookie banners - another EU thing that has spread across the world and maybe been adopted by other countries.

I disliked that look back then and I still don’t like it now. After being happy for GNOME, I’ve now moved over to Xfce. Just random info from me.
