Old grumpy software architect and engineer. I create, perform, and teach music. I´m married, have kids, dogs, dabble in fine arts, and talk psychology, culture, and politics.
The Windows 10 equivalent, Timeline, got discontinued in 2021. At this point in time it is unknown whether Microsoft will retrofit Recall into Windows 10. Knowing Microsoft it is safe to assume they’ll try anything for profit.
Seconded: CryptPad and Obsidian.
I like CryptPad by Framasoft, for big stuff.
Microsoft has a history of doing so, both with Minecraft customers and others. They just don’t care.
Some web applications force me to open their screens in separate tabs and windows, by making the screens remove any filtering on revisit by back button. And thus I have 20 tabs open that all start with the same meaningless word.
“Could”.
Indeed. I’m not totally oblivious. Luckily I have learned a few phrases and figures of speech. But it seems I had a way harder time learning those than my school mates who weren’t on the spectrum.
Right! I totally missed that! Why is Jalopnik advertising for the Post?
I took that AQ-10 test, and also pondered this particular question. No, I suck at reading between the lines. Give it to me straight, please. No beating around no bush.
Figures of speech pose an equal problem: I may just lack the cultural awareness that allistic people enjoy, but it’s rare for me to understand a common phrase, and more often than not I’ll invent a completely new one.
Reading between lines: do allistic people do that? How? Is it some skill I can learn?
Thank you! As I’m learning more about my own autism, I’m quite willing to share experiences.
No, they aren’t. You can switch to their Universe patches anytime, at your own risk. If you want Canonical to mitigate that risk for you, you pay. Simple, really.
The Post? Really? Half of that article is an ad for the Post itself!
With some of my smaller clients, the CIO is the same as the CTO and the same as the IT Director. There, IT is developers, too.
Enterprise will cause a boom in hiring VBA devs to migrate legacy apps to other programming languages, then hear Microsoft will extend support for a few more years, then fire all those VBA devs again. If Microsoft had some wits, they’d create easy tools to migrate VBA to C#.
Wouldn’t it face the exact same security issues as VBA, with drive-by installs of obfuscated malware and executions of arbitrary code?
That indeed is annoying.
Except that b comes before c, so it’ll always recommend the .blog bookmark before the .com bookmark. This post is more about clarifying a stupefying situation. Solutions are a bonus.
So they say. Remember they also promised not to track users, keep trackers away, and keep your browsing experience ad-free. They came back from that within a year.
Sure! It won’t comply, though.
