The thread was about inept the coders were.

Here is your answer: They were so fucking inept they broke a fundamental function and it made it to production. Then they did it deliberately.

That’s how inept they are.

End of.

They have some very big military contracts

Multiple ways

• there was an update that meant alt-tab brought you a black screen
• there was another one that meant it didn’t tab between the two most recent windows, but brought up a selection. They tried to tout this as a feature you had to turn off

Everything’s liquid form eventually

If they ever actually identify one, make a very public post stating that as this was identified using AI there will be no bounty paid.

Dear god, those fools never worked with two spreadsheets at once in their life

Even on 11 hit winkey+r then type in CONTROL

They broke alt tab.

That’s how fucking inept they are

Every time i see this waft up all i can think is “google failed to pay their bribes”

This is one of the major bugbears - linux for a long time had a lot of fucking about required under the hood.

This has not been the case for a while now, straight outta the box it works as painlessly as windows

(Edit for full disclosure: non partisan here, I actually run mint, 10, 7, slack, ubuntu and 11 professionally and personally)

Corporate /LTS editions don’t have this crap. MS only rapes the peasantry

Logitech are fucking dead to me after the shit they pulled with the harmony remotes.

Don’t @ me about the age of the hardware, it’s the practice they still do today: make hardware dependant on their services, then cripple them when they feel like it. You cannot trust them
