I’m annoyed by that too, and I think the reason is so they can cram more ads in it. I had to turn of my adblock for a second and forgot to turn it back on while going to a news site and I swear to God 2/3rd of the page was ads. Turned it back on and those spaces were empty making only 1/3rd of the page used. Still way better tho I’m never turning it off again.

YouTube also “sells” movies afaik

Didn’t see that specific one but the amount of conspiracy theory videos I saw immediately turned me off of that website. Now that I know that it’s got a block chain backend even more lmao

Omg yes. I actually tried using that after my Fusion360 student license expired and the amount of time it took me just to extrude a basic shape was insane.

The conclusion I got from the video was that, while it’s very powerful software, it’s very difficult for new users to start using the program due to unintuitive placement of options. That’s how he, for a lack of better word, reviews each piece of software, from the eyes of a new user.

But on the other hand, the video is also 7 years old at this point so maybe sibbelius has fixed some of the stuff that he pointed out. I don’t really compose music so I honestly wouldn’t know.

Love tentacrul. I re-watch that video from time to time just because it’s so good. It was also really funny watching a later video of his where he just casually dropped that he was working on musescore.

Nor will they get the workload of 6 people. They might for a couple of months, but at some point the KPI’s will suddenly say that it’s possible to squeeze out the workload of 2 more people. With maybe even 1 worker less!

I think it just really goes to show you can’t hide anything on a computer physically. What do you mean? It’s certainly possible when using encryption software such as bitlocker. It’s just not always enabled by default.In fact it’s saved my ass from total data loss a couple of times.

If you can make sure nobody has physical access to your pc than there’s a case to be made that you don’t need it, and if you can’t and are afraid that someone has both knowledge of this fact and the intention to (ab)use it, you use bitlocker.

I’ve got a 12 mini and bought it just because it was small. Had nothing else from the apple ecosystem (altho I did buy airpods with the phone cause it had no 3.5mm jack), and still bought it just because it was small. People like to point out and laugh at how tiny the phone is, but I don’t care cause at least I don’t have to carry around half a tablet everyday. Sad to hear they discontinued the mini line, even tho I wasn’t planning on buying apple again.

It might be nicely organized but coming from windows the abbreviations can be downright confusing. For example:

• /bin; recycle bin?
• /etc; other files (etcetera)?
• /home; okay, this is where I can find my own files
• /media; music and pictures? USB drives and CD’s?
• /mnt; no idea but also USBs apparently?
• /root; wait system admin has his own files?
• /sbin; super recycle bin?
• /usr; wait, also where I can find my own files?

Sure, this might be hyperbole and Windows has its own problems, the two different program files folders coming to mind first. But when you come from an OS where system folders are words instead of abbreviations Linux can be really confusing, especially if you are not that tech-savy.
