on: Users hate change
Why do people hate change? Because of BLOAT. No one gives a shit about your fucking react or electron or node bloat bullshit, give me a fucking simple site like lazyfoo.net this whole Web 2.0 is so fucked up and inaccessible to people in 3rd world countries or even just pla es where connectivity is bad. People care about looks, aesthetic, style. It's all form over function nowadays. nearly 2 decades ago, Windows XP used less than a 100MB RAM and was initially buggy shit. Back then, the SP updates FIXED issues; they didn't CREATE them. I want to go back

on: Files UWP: An enthusiast’s take on what Windows File Explorer explorer should be
Why do Windoze users have a fetish for Universal/Modern UI? Wastes half the damn screen with enormously oversized buttons and elements. A computer is a device you use a mouse and keyboard with, don't try WI dows 8(.x)-style bullshit lol if you REALLY want those batshit insanely huge buttons for your tablet or something , just have separate touch-friendly version (like Office 2013 had a touch/kbd+m switchable version)

on: How to get every email returned
Hi everyone, would you mind avoiding using any sites articles from New York Times? They require a subscription after a certain amount of views. Sure, journalism isn't charity work (news editors and journalists need food on the table, too, you know?), but all other sites have advertisements. I leave advertisements enabled on sites that don't block you out. If you use an article from NYT, would you mind including another link to a mirror article?

on: Americans can opt out of airport facial recognition
As if prism and the whole 14eyes thing wasn't enough, now they want to keep tabs on where we're going? And they expect us to "trust them because they have only us citizens' best interests in mind"? I'll pass, thanks. We're headed towards a dystopian future

on: Buster: Captcha Solver for Humans
The modern implementation of reCaptcha is quite possibly the worst plague of the internet. If you're using Tor or any non chrom*-based browser, you're out of luck. Piece of garbage really should have been decommissioned by now.
