It's just a nice-to-have, been using forever, and wrote my own editor which has features probably no one else wants.
Just irked that they keep adding useless crap and don't address something which would be useful.

You don't need a recent file list if you use the jump list on the taskbar icon.
The difficult we do right away...
...the impossible takes slightly longer.

Which I don't. I don't particularly want a recent file list either, but it would make more sense than the changes which were made.

Just wait 'til you see the new cmd.

"Terminal"? Yeah, I set it to console mode. It's why I want my square corners back. The round corners clip the bottom line.

notepad++ or sublime. Has had anything from Microsoft completely outclassed for at least 10+ years.
Meanwhile, Microsoft goes out and dicks with the task bar and the file explorer popup menu because.... well, just because.

You’d think MS treating us like data pawns would be the real concern. 🤣🤣

No.

Don't care, I just want simple.
I will likely install the editor (simple IDE) I wrote about ten years ago. It has (most of*) the features that I want, and nothing I don't want.
* I don't think I have a version which supports sorting selected text.

Notepad++ will do that.
Also good columnar blocking.
It's fast, not quite as snippy as notepad, but not at all slow to start and it won't freeze for 30 minutes if you open a 300MB data file.
I still use regular notepad for some quick/dirty stuff, but if they've made it soft-close that is going to become a delete/uninstall/rename the .exe or something for me most likely. Most of what I use it for are things I explicitly do not want hanging around in a notepad++ tab or anywhere else in memory.

Don't care. Not gonna use it.

At least they made it configurable.

The way that came out on my end:

Oh, so you're serious? Haha

It's a slippery slope.
The way I see it, Notepad has always been little more than a multiline textbox wrapped in an app that has save and load capabilities. For the most part, the Notepad "features" are really features of the Win32 textbox control itself.
If they start adding "just one more tiny feature", it'll end up being bloated, take forever to load (the biggest offender IMO), and a monstrosity nobody will really be happy with.
No thanks. They have VS Code for that.

From the trailer it looks as if they picked low depth, barely humorous humor for 5 year olds. But, if you be a Minecraft fan, looks like the movies based on games genre ain't dead.

Simple question. Just doing some recon.
Curious to know if anyone ever authed their web APIs with Kerberos or did permissions lookups / auth with LDAP? Personally, even though I had to work with LDAP a few times, never once I have used any version of Kerberos for even internal web APIs.
So, anyone actually use either of these two techs in the context of web APIs in the enterprise and/or for public facing web APIs?

With the suicide booth/pod, I mean...apparently it's now a thing. As the kids say today, what a time to be...alive? (ironically).
I don't know what to make of it. The article doesn't get into how it works. But it does mention it can be 3D-printed and assembled at home. How convenient.

So the only problem is someone didn't profit from the suicide. Got it. /s

I remember reading a few years ago that some states were struggling to find, let's call them, "alternative methods" to use on death row inmates, as there have been instances where their current methods have proven to be ineffective and found to be "inhumane" as they can sometimes just prolong a painful death.
These guys might have found their niche...?

"Police in Switzerland made multiple arrests after a woman reportedly ended her life using a so-called suicide pod, in apparently the first case of its kind."
Had to laugh at the double meaning of "in apparently the first case of its kind."

Octopuses recorded hunting with fish — and punching those that don't cooperate[^]
Quote: Octopuses don’t always hunt alone — but their partners aren’t who you’d expect.
A new study shows that some members of the species Octopus cyanea maraud around the seafloor in hunting groups with fish, which sometimes include several fish species at once.
The research, published in the journal Nature on Monday, even suggests that the famously intelligent animals organized the hunting groups’ decisions, including what they should prey upon.
What’s more, the researchers witnessed the cephalopod species — often called the big blue or day octopus — punching companion fish, apparently to keep them on task and contributing to the collective effort.
Octopuses have often been thought to avoid other members of their species and prowl solo using camouflage. But the study suggests that some octopuses have surprisingly rich social lives — a finding that opens a new window into the marvels of undersea life. It’s an indication that at least one octopus species has characteristics and markers of intelligence that scientists once considered common only in vertebrates.
“I think sociality, or at least attention to social information, is way more deep-rooted in the evolutionary tree than we might think,” said Eduardo Sampaio, a postdoctoral researcher at the Max Planck Institute of Animal Behavior and the lead author of the research.
“We are very similar to these animals,” he added. “In terms of sentience, they are at a very close level or closer than we think toward us.”
To understand the inner details of octopus lives, researchers dived for about a month at a reef off the coast of Eilat, Israel, and tracked 13 octopuses for a total of 120 hours using several cameras. The team followed the octopuses for 13 hunts, during which they observed groups of between two and 10 fish working with each octopus.
These hunting groups typically included several species of reef fish, such as grouper and goatfish. The octopuses did not appear to lead the groups, but they did punch at fish to enforce social order — most often at blacktip groupers.
“The ones that get more punched are the main exploiters of the group. These are the ambush predators, the ones that don’t move, don’t look for prey,” Sampaio said.
