If the AP wants to write about "the moon", I'm going to ask "Which one?" same for "the sun". You could say that it is only proper to capitalize Luna or Sol, but if you are going to use moon interchangeably with Luna, then you ought to maintain the capitalization to indicate that.
You might guess that the phone home website for updates & store & cloud library is going to discontinue supporting one or more of the vulnerable HTTPS modes, leaving devices without updates no way to connect.
2. I used it once. When it came out. Dozens of tabs turned into a Tab Group. Tried to undo it or whatever. The Group closed. No way to reopen a closed Tab Group. Dozens of tabs that I was using gone in an instant. Never touched that buggy shit again.
It's specifically the malicious software removal tool that takes forever. It's scanning the files on your hard disk, the time this takes depends on what kind of data and how much of it you have on your computer.
Not really. MS has totally screwed up Windows Update.
Malicious Software Detection tool runs and scans your disk as a stupid update. I literally see people who haven't taken control of Updates away from Microsoft spend 30 or more minutes waiting for their laptop to shutdown so they can go home.
Laptops are shutdown so they can be carried away. NOW! not when MS is done futzing around. Same thing with boot. I boot so I can get work done! Not so that some crappy updater can tell me that there's an Adobe Reader update available and I just need to re-reboot my computer before I can do whatever it is I turned my computer on to do.
So... just plow into the stopped vehicles in front of you? In order to maintain speed? Obviously you've never been in stop and go traffic on an interstate.
Well like many other outsourcers, they are. If advertising is so important to their business, then they should have maintained adequate control over it. They could have contracts with guarantees for quality, security, and penalties for failure to meet them. At the end of the day someone has to take responsibility for the advertising.
At least where I am you would be at fault if there were an accident. You are not allowed to cross the line unless it is safe to d so. That means you must stop and wait for oncoming traffic to pass if you cannot proceed on your own side of the line.
No, making the road harder to identify just makes the road less safe.
I've been in road conditions where I practically had to have someone lead me down the road on foot because visibility from inside the car was so bad. Road markings are not optional under such conditions.
1. Set your local network up as a "metered connection". This will prevent Windows automatically downloading updates over it. Instead it will notify you that they are available and you can manually click the download button. This improves other apps too.
Only works on wifi and only on wifi connections that are specifically set as metered. The instant you connect to a new wifi network, all updates come through. If you're connected via ethernet, then it just plain doesn't work at all.
I had to go look this up. Didn't seem possible.
Just another sign that the people at Microsoft don't understand networks or the Internet... still.
Now's not good. Tomorrow? too soon to tell. Next Thursday? you're kidding right, how do I know what stuff I'll be in the middle of a whole week from now.
How about never, is never good for you? Don't call me, I'll call you.
To put it another way, on a flat surface, curvature is 0 per mile everywhere. On the earth's spherical surface, curvature is 0.000126 per mile everywhere (or 8 inches per mile). On the earth's oblate spheroidal surface, the curvature varies from 7.973 inches to the mile to 8.027 inches to the mile.
The correction in going from spherical to oblate spheroidal is much smaller than going from flat to spherical. Therefore, although the notion of the earth as a sphere is wrong, strictly speaking, it is not as wrong as the notion of the earth as flat.

You'd certainly confuse me.
I didn't know I was buying a voice activated stove.
Prime is rotating music and videos in and out all the time.
It isn't intended to be a static set of N titles that are Prime in perpetuity.
Your definition of "free" is broken.
that would be the parochial view I guess?

Was that you?
Sorry. I would hit send, shut my laptop and go home.
After supper I open my laptop and Outlook would sync my outbox.....
where does "percy" or "pursay" land you?

YouTube has ads? mm, hadn't noticed.
Yes, It should be a requirement that a phone be unlocked before an update is applied.
Although there could be an option to update *and wipe* which would be equivalent to hard reset and update.

Do you think that a magazine would print an ad in their product sight unseen?
Of course not. They have guidelines for acceptable ads and screen each and every ad before accepting it for their print run.
Why do/did they think they can just outsource their ads for their online product?
Online advertising is just broken because they absolutely, positively cannot be trusted.

How about "Silver Plastic" ?
it only breaks web sites that I want to break.
If a site only works if I drop my pants and bend over then I want to know that before my pants are around my ankles.

The earth is flat.
The earth is round.
The earth is an oblate spheroid.
Within some error bar.
