For me it is so weird, that you have to use extra tools to disable telemetry and unwanted features in windows systems. Why is windows not giving me a central option to decide on those things? Is it maybe because they do not want me to decide for myself and therefore splitting the places where I need to disable all that unwanted stuff as opaque as possible? Can they be more obvious that they do not value your opinion on how you want your OS to behave?

Quit Windows. It is a dead end and get worst with every release.

If you tolerate this, then your children will be next.

oops they did it again.

Imagine a webview integration in performance and api on par of app-niveau.

Imagine every app could be as easily opened/reached/surfed-to as a website.

The crippling of the Webview Engine on Mobile spawned the success of the AppStore/PlayStore.

They didn't had an AppStore. But they realized the potential. They went for it. Apple promoted HTML5 (Draft 2007, Initial release 2008) as the new technology for everything UI, killed Flash with it, and were left with a free path for a marketplace with binary applications vending with advanced performance and permission structures than the browser market was able to create. HTML5 lays in a ditch with a knife in its back, idling of its latest 5.2 release (2017). Look at this table (wiki). Is this what a sprawling, innovative, free and healthy release tree looks like for a 16 year periode where millions of developers create stunning HTML5 Applications that are on par with Apps? No. And Apple wanted it like that since they knew what they had in their Hands in 2006 with their first mobile-internet-touchscreen-prototypes that later became the iPhone. They were part of the HTML5 Development (2009 Article) and even brought their own Webkit Engine to the table. They knew they need Applications on a mobile device. But as soon they found out after the release, that the AppStore is a viable way to have a walled garden and saw the revenue estimations, they stabbed HTML5 in the back and even took protectorate approaches to not let the webview alternative strive, even tho it was their own creation they helped to build up and now had to constrain in a cage.

They crippled the Webview and therefore the web and what people were able (or allowed) to do on a mobile web or make out of a mobile web. And the key to keeping it in check, was not allowing any other engine on the phone, other than their own (caged) webkit engine, to clamp down on limiting what a mobile webview experience was able to deliver.

Bastards.

Trump wouldn't even know the name Francois Mitterrand. He would not even know he was president long before Macron. Or where France is.

I take the grandpa that sometimes has those name hick-ups then the grandpa with the swastika armlet.

what I crave for is blocking certain links/websites. Nobody should ever need to see or click a NYPost Link.

Republicans blush at the amount of bans and cancellations of culture Russia is pushing out. The way Putin is dictating their citizens on how to live and what to say is the wet dream of the republican party.

Isn't archwiki one of the most comprehended wikis for Linux distros out there? If anything, the arch-wiki (to me) has often too many answers for the same problem than the other way around.
