According to Microsoft's new Windows 10 business roadmap, new enhancements to Continuum, Passport authentication, file-level encryption and more are 'in development' and possibly coming soon. Because nothing says "business" like, "Passport authentication"

It is freakin' broke. Upgrade it.

While acknowledging that more work will need to be done after it is adopted, Microsoft has thrown its support behind Privacy Shield, stating in the blog post that after careful and detailed review, it “believes wholeheartedly that it represents an effective framework and should be approved.” Can anyone recommend a good irony meter? My current one just exploded.

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?

No, I haven't forgotten either, I'm just agog at Microsoft signing on to something called a Privacy Shield after Windows 10.
It is a good thing though.

I wonder what we were doing when it was actually in that mode, 75 million years away, and... I wonder if that is still there in the same mode.

At the pace Microsoft is open sourcing the packages, Linux has nothing up his sleeves that can surprise us. Or maybe he has it up somewhere, other than sleeve.

I wish the Desktop were much thinner than it is.
The problem with desktop is that it so bloated that it barely runs on devices -- laptops, etc...
Why not have hot swappable add-ins and only run what I need at the time instead of all these services going crazy in the background.
Thin Desktop is what we want!
