The company views a third party app called File Pilot as benchmark for these [file search] improvements
That app is still in beta and was launched one year ago.
They’re comparing the search from the native shell (where they could directly query the NTFS table like Everything does and get instant results), native to their OS with 40 years of experience with some unknown newcomer still in beta???
Lol it’s true
It’s wild that they recognized that software compiled for their own operating system goes faster through an interpreter on a different operating system
Problem of free tier is just to entice devs in the hope that one of them likes the infrastructure and works at a whale
If you use the free tier too much they close it because you used it too much and exceeded their fair use policy
If instead you don’t use it enough, they close it for inactivity
And it automatically does HA. Reuse the key on another server and if one goes down it automatically switches to the next one
(Of course the application needs to support this, if you do this with a normal database it will break immediately)
Of course their closed source alternative is called AIStor and it is crazy expensive because everyone now needs to pivot to AI
S3 is designed for being used by applications via API, for example you can easily save and retrieve files from it even with a JavaScript application. It is much more difficult to do the same with sshfs
If instead you use it mounted on a computer, S3 is worse because each time you need to list its contents that’s an API request, if you have hundreds of thousands of files then it’s thousands of API reuqests
I bet there’s still a lot of stuff coded in that era that is still used in windows 11, like the drive format dialog or some icon resources
If you don’t join a domain, win11 pro will automatically install all the sponsored stuff exactly like win11 home at first login. There’s no difference in the two editions except only the pro can join a domain. Exactly same level of bloat, even if it’s more expensive
I wonder how many would just do it for the extra discount and then use massgrave
Edit:
I went to watch their prices for the diy series
(Preinstalled, is +220 € for win 11 pro or free Ubuntu, can’t get win home edition if preinstalled)
Yes but sometimes, for example core parts of windows 11 like the start menu, don’t need to be cross platform and should be native, not a pwa
I don’t speak french or Spanish, but in Italian “windows ti ha piantato” it has the same three nuances that op wrote. When a computer is “piantato” it means it’s frozen/crashed. Like it’s stuck, planted in the ground.
For example someone can shout “Cazzo!!! Questo cazzo di computer si è piantato e ho perso il salvataggio del cazzo! Cazzo!”
Also a girlfriend can “piantato” = break up or do no show on appointment. And also “piantato” main meaning is to plant something in the spil
Thanks for this post, i would have updated mine next semester…
It’s very unlikely that those printers can support the new “universal print” standard (mopria, 2013)
At most can put them as generic printer text only which is worse
On the plus side, for example, there are thousands of printers and scanners where the manufacturer never released a 64bit windows driver even if some of them were sold during the vista 64 bit era or even windows 7.
In that case Linux it’s the only way to make them work on a modern computer (unless supported by paid third party drivers like vuescan or printfab)
And that some programs are extremely opinionated.
Ignoring requests with thousands of posts, or even pull requests where the changes are already implemented
“No. I won’t add tabs, it’s better UX to have separate windows”
“No, I won’t allow the user to save the password, even if it’s local or not important”
“All the temporary shit will be saved on the hardcoded directory ~/.fuckyou and not /tmp”
This stuff unfortunately depends by the desktop environment and because there are hundreds of them, it’s inconsistent.
On gnome it remembers it correctly, although there are a handful of times where the gamepad doesn’t connect automatically and I have to manually do that
Wow this is the exact perfect example of why someone should install from AUR as less as possible, manually checking the pkgbuild and not just “yay yolo”
In this case the archive seems to be clean and be what wd would send if contacted, (even Windows versions are in the zip)
Btw WTF WD. Why making a tool and its documentation only available on request?? It is nothing special, more or less do the same stuff that the GUI can do (show details, send erase command, send ATA password command).
It doesn’t seem to be able to disable the activity LED
Why not RDP with remmina, it’s way easier, faster and efficient
Right now they are:
it’s patch Tuesday!!!1!1!!! We MUST release immediately an update or the users will revolt!!
But Sir, preliminary testing says that it has a 80% bricking chance with full data loss, can we postpone it?
PUSH. IT. NOW. Force the install and make sure to reboot all the computers during the working hours, bonus if you force close all the opened apps without saving
