That’s because NTFS isn’t case-insensitive. If it was there’d be no two folders. Windows is a case-insensitive operating system running on a case-sensitive file system. It’s pretty clear Microsoft wanted case sensitivity and then realised how much legacy software that’d break.

None, and I haven’t in ages. No Google Wallet support is a dealbreaker.

On the one hand, yikes. On the other hand it’s probably good that she doesn’t vote, considering her views.

Oh for the love of fuck. Americans. Your country isn’t the centre of the universe. It doesn’t matter where a company’s headquarters are. If you are doing business in, for example, Germany, you have to abide by German laws. Being American isn’t an excuse and it doesn’t shield you from consequences for breaking the law.

Also, the big issue is that Valve isn’t actually using their right to refuse service. People can spread all sorts of bigotry via Steam’s discussions and groups without Valve acting on it. They’re providing a platform for hate speech and that is inherently immoral, regardless of what the law says.

Valve also does business outside the US. American law doesn’t clear them of their legal obligations in other countries. And besides, legality and morality are not always the same. Providing a platform for hate speech is supporting hate speech, and as far as I’m concerned that’s unethical regardless of whether or not it’s legal.

And ultimately they’re still Valve’s responsibility. If you provide a platform, you’re responsible for what people do on it.

Really? Because in my experience you have to wade through racist, homo- and transphobic, and misogynistic shit the second you foolishly open the discussions page on any game that features black or brown, LGBTQIA, and/or female characters.

I used to have downstairs neighbours like that and I loved it, free underfloor heating, I just opened the windows when I felt it got too warm. Saved me a good bit of money because I basically didn’t have to heat at all.

Germany, zero minutes. Postal voting ftw!

As claimed by MediaTek. I doubt they’re outright lying but I can guarantee you that the “up to” is doing a lot of heavy lifting.

Around 15% here in Germany. That’s more than I expected, but it isn’t mainstream. At least not in the sense that people will expect MacOS behaviour by default on their computers, or even to the point where you can expect familiarity with MacOS from most users.

We clearly live in different bubbles because this is the first time I’ve seen someone refer to MacOS as “very mainstream”. iOS, sure, but I haven’t seen many Macs out in the wild. It’s certainly not common to the point where people would expect MacOS behaviour as the default.

Fair. It still should be communicated better though, because it really does feel like a bug when you first encounter it.

Yeah. It’s one of those things where I’m sure it’s genuinely useful to some people but why on Earth is it on by default?!

Another issue was that Vista had very steep system requirements, which Microsoft deliberately understated. As a result it ran like shit on a ton of machines despite them technically meeting the requirements.

And it worked. Try finding any professional art/design jobs that don’t use Adobe.

I don’t think you can lump Endeavour and Garuda together. Yes, they’re both based on Arch but Endeavours basically is Arch with a GUI installer and sane defaults while Garuda changes a ton of things and adds a ton of customisations that make it very different from a plain Arch (or Endeavour) system.

That’s the issue with online advertising in a nutshell, isn’t it.

My issue isn’t that it’s breaking sites. It’s the fingerprint resistance making the basic user experience unpleasant. Refusing to remember window size, forcing light mode, etc. I understand why, but those aren’t sacrifices I’m willing to make.
