Speaking to PC World, Microsoft Corporate Vice President Joe Belfiore explained that Windows 10 is constantly tracking how it operates and how you are using it and sending that information back to Microsoft by default. It can, but stopping it involves installing Linux

I guess my nice pfsense router will be able to correct theses issues.

Yes, spying cannot be stopped from inside the box, but it can be stopped externally at the router!
The difficult we do right away...
...the impossible takes slightly longer.

Want to buy a new Windows 7 PC? Better get busy, because there are only 364 shopping days left. As promised, Microsoft is providing one year's notice to PC makers on Windows 7's end of life. The clock starts now. Save your DVDs, you might get loads of money for them soon

Microsoft has attempted various ways to bolster their app store – including making it simple for iOS and Android developers to port their apps – but now the company is looking to non-developers in the hope of boosting the number of apps in their store through a web-based 'App Studio' to build simple applications without the need to know any code. Hopefully it has the option to automatically contact a real developer to fix the app it generates
|

Yeah, that will make plenty of good paying jobs for skilled programmers.

Remove the Goddamn Hyper-V requirement off the Emulator for Windows Phone and you have won at least one developer.
Seriously, Window UWP in my opinion, is the best for developing for. The designer is nice, and API's are actually well thought out, but I can't test my apps out on the emulator. As someone who doesn't have a full time job, I can't pay for Windows 10 Pro or a new computer at the moment.
Microsoft wants to complain about there being no apps in their app store, but they don;t want to listen to their developers. If they think adding "filthy casuals'" apps to their app store, its just going to be trash.

Kotlin was conceived in 2010. Ten years of Java development led us to feeling that our productivity at JetBrains could be improved significantly by using a modern JVM language alongside Java. Having evaluated other available options, we decided that a new language was needed there, and we had the expertise and resources to create such a language. Another programming language. That doesn't confuse things...

First off, our projects live long and grow really big (many millions of lines of code), so we needed static typing to be able to reason precisely about huge codebases and maintain them over the years.
Oooh, I love the low blow to Ruby and their ilk.

By now you have probably seen the WSJ report that says Google plans to fold its Chrome operating system into Android and phase it (and the “Chromebook” name) out over time. Google today published a story on virtually every blog it owns that denies this. I guess they still have a few Chromebooks in the warehouse
|
|
|
|
|
Denial is always the first stage. Most of the other stages are skipped, getting right to "acceptance", as in "yup, it's true, Chrome OS is dead, we accept it, and so should you."
Funny how companies, governments and cheating politicians all have to go through the denial stage first though.

"When I sat down to hear his case a few weeks ago, he didn’t evince much patience for the argument that American politicians couldn’t agree even on whether climate change is real, much less on how to combat it. "If you’re not bringing math skills to the problem," he said with a sort of amused asperity, "then representative democracy is a problem." interviewer quoting Gates
"Yes, the government will be somewhat inept," he said brusquely, swatting aside one objection as a trivial statement of the obvious. "But the private sector is in general inept. How many companies do venture capitalists invest in that go poorly? By far most of them." Gates to interviewer [^]

The update will contain new features that will make it easier to shift between devices while you work, according to WinBeta. I thought Windows 10 was "the last version of Windows"?
|

It all depends on your definition of "last".
If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.

QuickTime and iTunes are two of the most exposed programs, according to Flexera I think it's because they want to forget they actually installed iTunes for Windows
|
|
|
|
|
The first thing I uninstall after installing Quicktime (which I only do with a gun pointed at me) is the Apple Updater. Because for some reason, Apple believes that "Keeping Quicktime up to date" means the same thing as "Install Safari, ITunes, and any other Apple-branded crapware under the sun"
|
|
|
|
|
That's the same reason I haven't had quicktime installed on any of my PCs since the last one I had before installing Vista64 because I needed more ram.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?
