Cool! Windows 11 really needs a better file browser. Will give this a try for sure!

Currently using Explorer without the Windows 11 skin. Also tried FilePilot and TotalCommander. But what I really want is Windows explorer with tabs; more or less.

It would be interesting to hear from a Microsoft engineer about what’s going on in there. Explorer is a pretty important piece of the experience, and its currently a nightmare.

Did someone perhaps come here after watching Sebastian Lague’s pen plotter video?

There is a brief mention of chaos terrain while he searches the surface of Mars for an interesting plot.

How come my MasterCard is only a MasterCard. We need to sue them! It should be an Visa and an IKEA card too!

In Sweden we often think of our selves as socialist. I suspect it means something very different across the pond. Anyone care to elaborate on the differences?

Does it mean I won’t get any AI generated slop spam for a few hours?

Why is there a fee at all? This is all sponsored by taxes anyway.

I think this is awesome. Anything we can do to get away from burning fossil fuel is a win in my book. I don’t know about this particular effort, but it seems to me that aviation could really need some big wins in this direction. Last I looked we still run smaller planes on leaded fuel. Crazy.

Why would a malicious library author limit their maliciousness to the build script?

The new packing law makes selling direct to customers in EU tricky and expensive for small operators. I understand the spirit of what they are trying to achieve. But missing out on having a single register is unforgivable.

I’m surprised session cookies, and cookies in general, are not already encrypted? But I suspect this is a more clever scheme?

Really cool! I’d love to try those switches. Can’t imagine using a non-split keyboard though. Great work regardless. Stunning.

Can’t even get my friends to buy a used electric car instead of a diesel. Which is an improvement in drivability and comfort - maybe a mild inconvenience for some. Imagine trying to make humans do larger changes in their lives. I think, this won’t happen voluntarily.

So with Chat Control 2.0 your nudes are collected and viewed by some creeps in a room somewhere. They are automatically viewed — nej, shared — with a bunch of strangers. Great.
