You're right but if an installer renders a computer inoperable until reboot (tried in another PC, same result, doesn't only kill explorer.exe because if I run it again via taskmgr, the taskbar is broken and non functional until reboot) it means it has been pushed to the "stable" channel without being tested a single time.

The problem is present since 2021 and it's a bit ridiculous now https://github.com/nextcloud/desktop/issues/3551

In the topic you can see the devs "ok fixed in next release" => next release didn't fix it (=nobody actually clicked the exe before releasing, it just passed all automated tests), then "ok so next release gonna fix it", and again again

It has been said to gracefully restart explorer.exe instead of crashing it, it still chooses violence for a restart. It asks "do you want to reboot" twice.

I like having the bleeding edge stuff, running nextcloud in docker under the "latest" tag, but those are clearly nightlies

Finally someone did a windows installer that can add it as a service.

It was super annoying to do it manually on windows, to have it reliably start before login

TBH it would be pretty fun to play Russian roulette with this stuff for just three dollars.

This time is going to be some rare audio compilation, some interesting program or a ransomware that bricks my computer?

I only saw American closed captions on live TV almost two decades ago but the quality was much worse than the European teletext. In my country the teletext subtitles had small caps, italics and colors to identify who's talking instead the American ones, I'm guessing because they were introduced a few years earlier with a more primitive tech, were always behind and not exactly accurate to what was spoken, like if someone was typing them on the fly

if it's a tv show it could be that they come from the tv signal, those usually are all caps and poorly synced because it's tech from the 80s

Me too

I'm guessing from the thumbnail and title that Microsoft said that Minecraft users need to merge their Minecraft account (100% in Microsoft hands) with a Microsoft account. The user said no because reasons and then now they can't play

IMHO a paid and closed source program shouldn't have "open" in their name

i think you will like pigallery2

while you could install node via rpm, you really want to run this in a docker container

Last time I used Citra it was 2016, but I installed it on my onedrive folder to make it portable and it worked, it did not hide anything in appdata or registry

Usually those kind of emulators are already portable, the nightlies are just zipped executables without a setup

But desmume is almost dead, no big improvements over a decade

I can't hear the fans of my Lenovo m920q even if I'm running a burn-in test

And it consumes 10w during use which is comparable to many SBC once you consider that you have nvme, SATA, WiFi, two display port, lots of USB 3 ports, thunderbolt via USB c and an additional PCI express slot
