The problem is that javascript is mostly developed by people who have no fucking clue what they're doing. Most of them come from webdesign and when they found out that there's not even a market for a fraction of them, they muscled into the server world.
And now we have this pile of pus on the backend, too.
Run your own company and leave running others to their owner. You got enough work at your hands as it is when I take a look at your more recent "success stories".
Scroll up a bit, with a few powershell commands you could remove all those apps (and a few more that MS probably lets you remove in another "feature upgrade" in a few months) since long before this "new feature".
What's really sad is that today a "new feature" means you can get rid of something that's useless rather than really getting some additional functionality you would actually like...
We certainly won't get a repair economy for dollar-shop items. But it is by far not dollar-store items anymore that are the only thing that cannot be repaired. We carry around electronic gadgets costing hundreds to thousands of USD constantly, with the constant danger of breaking due to accidents and neglect. And facing the choice between having it repaired for 100 or buying a new one for 1000, you're looking at an industry waiting to start.
All that's needed is that this phone can be repaired. And not just by some "genius" (I use that term loosely here), who knows jack shit about the phone anyway, and certainly less than the Pakistani at the corner who could probably repair it better, faster and with less chance of an error because he fucking knows what he's doing, but can't because only the "genius" gets the tools to actually perform the shoddy repair he will then do, staying in business for the only reason that he holds a monopoly.
Does the term "spare parts" mean anything to you? By your logic, I can't repair my car because I cannot repair my oil filter but have to replace it when it fails.
Not being able to repair something makes your society totally dependent on whoever delivers the crap you use. It's almost as bad as not being able to grow your own food anymore. It makes your society as a whole very susceptible to any kind of disturbance in trade, and it makes you susceptible to blackmail: Either you let us do $shady_business_practice or you get to explain to your people why they can't have $our_junk anymore.
If anything, it would be in the best interest of politics to enforce that things have to be repairable. If politicians put their money where their mouth is, making things repairable IS where "taking jobs home to the US" is.
That would take care of all the thinks currently done. First, repairing locally is cheaper than sending stuff halfway around the globe. Repair shops would pop up quickly where people with the skill to repair sell that skill to those that need it. It's also one of the best kinds of industries you can possibly have, because you're selling raw work force with a minimum of investment. This would be American as all hell, something where someone who has little money but lots of skill and talent can start a business. And it would instantly also take care of the postal bickering with China, because that is only a problem because sending stuff from China to the US is cheap and nothing moves the other way. China would either have to accept that fewer things get shipped over here, because the stuff isn't thrown away but repaired, or they have to accept that they, too, have to uphold their part of the deal and deliver the returns for free, too. Which they won't.
So if our politicians really were about getting jobs back, they wouldn't try to bribe large corporations into building plants here. All they really had to do is to force them to make their shit repairable. But, of course, where's the kickback in that?
I want to see one of those overpaid, useless sponges, oh, sorry, how un-PC of me, I mean managers, to work for ONE day in an open floor office space. And then discuss with him the merits of this.
Sorry, but you won't find me working in one of those environments. At least not for longer than it takes to hang that asshole who decided it from his tie 'til he croaks.
Not really, actually it gets funnier and funnier with every incarnation of their "hey look, we made Windows better" spiel. MS announcements are more and more like Soviet propaganda, announcing and parading out achievements nobody gives a fuck about while failing to address what people actually care about.
Well, it isn't really any closer to usable, I already figured out how to remove them myself. But it will save the others who did and actually use it a few lines in the "remove the crapware again after the updates" script.
Once we get to the point where the OS is actually usable, i.e. where it doesn't waste more time telling MS when I'm on the can than it does doing the work I intend to do, we could actually talk about installing it.
Last time I checked the "left loonies" are the ones that have less problems with their kids knowing how their body works than their kids being subjected to hate and violence.
So... I guess you're barking up the wrong tree here.

Nobody of importance gave a shit about the shirt.
I say it's my data.
That's why it's not in the cloud.
A funny coincidence, by the way, is that cloud is a homophone of "klaut", German for "he/she/it steals".

Ajit is playing with fire and has no idea what he is doing. You're looking at a fall guy in the making.
Any way to speed it up?
What do you expect from Ashit Pile?
Some sentences should end early to be good.
Wait, fighting kids and protecting terrorists and drugs (or ... something like this) isn't good enough anymore as an excuse to pass a law?

I'm waiting for the part where you explain the importance of the women's cycling race winner.

I was wondering the same, what do they have to do with each other at all?

I'm a step further, I eliminated the need of throwing the junk away by not buying it.
As someone who had both I can tell you, getting a tooth restored beats getting an implant.
What does any of this have to do with knowing how to fuck?
What's next, feeder bags instead of a cafeteria?

Indeed, the five permanent menbers of the security council, one mouthpiece for genocide next to another.
I didn't know they're dominated by muslims, though. Guess you learn something new every day.
