    I searched this up, second result goes: “In Viso del Marqués (Ciudad Real), an uprising occurred in 1742 on the occasion of a dispute regarding who should be the town doctor.”

    I wonder who became the town doctor…

    Other results find the conquest of the Canary Islands by the Spanish.

    NOTE THAT I HAVE LITTLE TO NO EXPERIENCE WITH PCS, I HAVE NEVER BUILT ONE! PLEASE TAKE ANY ADVICE WITH A GRAIN OF SALT THANKS

    Online I found lots of people like the 6800 XT as a good value.

    AGAIN I DO NOT HAVE EXPERIENCE WITH PCS, DO NOT USE THIS COMMENT TO MAKE A FINAL JUDGEMENT OR PURCHASE THANKS





  • Why MIcrosoft can’t develop a good desktop app when they have a huge amount of money and loads of staff. Not to mention owning the operating system a majority of people use, meaning the app, syncing, backing up, etc. can be super optimised for it without any fuss for using workarounds. NO MS, PUTTING ALL MY FILES INTO A “OneDrive” FOLDER IS NOT A GOOD IDEA. WHY IS THERE TWO OF THEM??? “OneDrive” and “OneDrive - [org name]”??? WHAT??? AND YOUR TASKBAR ICON THING FOR ONEDRIVE IS ANNOYING. WHY CAN’T I QUIT ONEDRIVE WITHOUT OPENING THE MENU???

    Thankfully I switched to more competent cloud providers. pCloud is pretty good, they just sync your files. No stupid “moving all your folders into a pcloud folder and making two of them one of which is empty for some reason”. Super duper simple. And pcloud definitely has many times less budget and staff than MS. Jottacloud is also great, pretty similar to pcloud in that it only syncs files. WHY ARE THESE MUCH SMALLER COMPANIES DOING A WAY BETTER JOB THAN MS???








  • Yeah it was mentioned in the github repo near the bottom I think. They really don’t want you do use it as your only method of auth. I use it because it’s convenient, not for its security.

    p.s. howdy is WAY faster at recognising than Windows Hello and doesn’t show up the stupid “looking for your face” pop up. Probably bc it isn’t as secure (it can be fooled by a picture of your face)
