Windows 11 is finally getting a movable taskbar. You'll be able to move the taskbar to the sides or top of your screen, and Microsoft is also working on a smaller taskbar too. Details 👇theverge.com/tech/897849/mi…








If a baby is born 1 month prematurely, and I suffocate it, that is murder. However, a mother can now 'abort' her child at 8 months in the UK and face no legal consequences. This was passed as law, despite only 1% of the public supporting it. Is this democracy? Really?




$4,399 M5 Max 16” MacBook Pro vs $11,238 Dell Pro Max 18 Plus is now in progress!






Mac just had its best launch week ever for first-time Mac customers. We love seeing the enthusiasm!








For anybody saying "Just use Linux", you need to realise that Linux is worse than Windows. Windows has all the bloat, and while you can have Linux without any of that you still don't have tools like Remedybg, RAD Debugger and Super Luminal. Once you have such tools, then Linux is a suitable app development environment. But _it is still trash_ because of the whole Linux model of you needing to compile everything. The fact that you cannot run an app built using a newer version of glibc is an insane decision. I shouldn't have to upgrade my whole machine in order to run something built on a newer version. I shouldn't be worried that an upgrade will break my machine. I shouldn't be forced to compile things from scratch to work on my machine. I shouldn't be forced to install N packages, I just want self contained binaries I can just download and run. I shouldn't be forced to develop with an old distro to have "max glibc compatibility". I shouldn't have to worry about X11 / Wayland / Window Managers. I shouldn't have to worry about asking the user to select a folder, display a dialog or show notifications. Linux is such a huge waste of potential, if they got their shit together they would completely obliterate Windows. I first got into Linux in 2000, and even back then there was this "it will take over Windows any time now!". It's been _26 years_! The same way I'd pay quite a lot for Windows without any bloat, I'd be willing to pay for a distro that gives me all this.
