The promise of Windows store is that programs follow a central update mechanism akin to iOS and Android - no downloading new revisions manually, nor running a CPU stealing background updater service that Google on Windows is guilty of.
Anyhow, I thought MS had improved their sandboxing to allow traditional non-UWP apps to be store-ified.
I don't use NF but yeah, several online services I do use have apps in the store. Most seem half-arsed, as if a manager had a requirement for a Windows 10 Mobile presence and decided to minimally port a release for desktop too.
One of the test scenarios for emulation was running 32bit Photoshop (x86) on Qualcomm chips. Check the promo videos from when this was announced last year.
We've been down this road before. On this very forum, Mozilla were laughed at for releasing their flagship OS on junk hardware designed for the Indian market.
Oreo on 512MB will choke, in the same way that any 7 year old phone designed for Gingerbread would.
Do they still funnel dough through Ireland? It's up to the French government and the EU to close any loopholes.
It seems not unreasonable to me for Apple's retail arm in France to be registered as a French business. If they rent buildings in Paris and other cities, employ local workers and collect French sales tax then they should pay the same proportion of tax as Gerard's Boutique d'Ordinateurs (pardon mon franÃais!) on the corner.
Is this not happening? A relative here in Australia was surprised when an Apple product purchased locally in a shop put Singapore on the bill.
It gets better with every 6 month release. the Fall Creators Update was almost usable!:)
I think the main problem is the release cycle. Few are interested in the Insider program and to gain any traction they need more regular updates. Whereas Firefox and Chrome users see an update every 6 weeks.
It seems like everyone is buying into the Bitcoin hype these days.
Even non-techies are asking me why I didn't tell them to invest in bitcoin 5 years ago. I shrug and say I didn't receive payment in them for services rendered, nor have a high end graphics card and free electricity to mine, didn't want to end up on an ASIO watchlist and probably would have had my wallet hacked or coins stolen from an exchange.
They needed to make UWP a first class citizen on Android, either by making it simple to publish on Google Play or providing an Android front end to the Windows Store. Isn't that why they bought Xamarin?
Only now are they pushing integration between Windows 10 and Android via a custom launcher and Edge browser.
I guess this is what Tim Cook meant about conquering the Chinese education market. To the victor go the spoils but surely there are UN conventions about child labour in POW camps.
Although hopefully these Chinese students are learning to Think Different and that this will be the generation of young people that finally overthrows the one party state of their great grandparents, tired of being worker slaves for tax-avoiding California-based multinationals.
With Trump promising to bring home manufacturing, high school students across the USA will be demanding equal opportunity. Every child will get a free iPhone as part of their education, provided they do the appropriate number of shifts at their local Apple Inc factory.
There may be some pre-approved list for noscript, I don't remember as it was a while ago that I tried it. But I found with the average web page loading a dozen or so AJAX requests, it was a pain having to check which individual script was responsable for loading the page content and which others were simply to serve ads.
I'm too impatient for that.:)
The defaults of u block origin seem close enough, if not perfect.
The problem was that the characters were wooden, to the point that the sexy Vulcan thinks they're beneath her. Archer and his southern sidekick are simply on the wrong show - NCIS New Orleans to be precise. Reed is completely dull. Phlox is your quirky non-human doctor but didn't we see that with the hologram? And Mayweather fills the Wesley/Harry Kim/Chekov role.
So when the most interesting character on the show is Hoshi, it's because the male cast are meh.

Long live Firefox.
Obligatory plug for AsteroidOS, the open source firmware for smartwatches.
Is there a website for that? :-)
I select a cafe based on the taste of the coffee, not on whether the establishment has free wifi.
(Sorry Starbucks, but your espresso is sub-par.)

'developing world'.

Thanks to people like you, I have 7.3 Gig of RAM on my Linux box and total system RAM usage never exceeds 3GB!

Only yesterday, Muskie was denying he was Satoshi Nakamoto.
It sounds like virtual desktops but bound to a window so you can compare workspaces side by side.
And if you want to invest in a bubble, there's always the economic miracle of the Australian housing market.
Your use of the verb "know" implies a sentience.

Will this Windows XP video board be fully supported under Windows 10?
So manufacturers that ship an old OS are doing customers a favour by letting others first iron out the bugs in Oreo!

Yeah, I found noscript too tedious to whitelist every site I needed.
Firefox 57 has tracking protection - is that a new thing? I know it used to be on in Private mode but it is on regular windows too now.
Perhaps Mozilla should offer an official APT mirror, as Chrome has.
Huh, I thought Lauren was a woman's name.
I wasn't a great fan of Enterprise.
