#Windows' upcoming #Recall feature is enabled by default btw in the OOBE setup and CANNOT be disabled directly - you will need to disable it in the Settings app instead, afterwards.

I don't know if you'd trust #Microsoft to actually respect that setting either, wouldn't be the first and only setting on Windows that doesn't actually do anything you'd want it to (or not to) do.

OH and also - Microsoft stores all the Recall data in an #SQLite database in plaintext, so you KNOW it's secure and definitely not easy to steal away from you by anyone that gains physical or remote access to your device <3

Idk if this is a Nunjucks thing or an Eleventy thing but template blocks (like if blocks, for loop blocks etc.) leaving empty lines after rendering is driving me nuts since I'm used to how Helm's templating works instead which imo is a lot more intuitive/cleaner.

I'm familiar with #Telegram APIs but not with #WhatsApp - is it like... not free to use it?

Bonkers how you can't 3 finger tap an item/link to open it in a new tab on #macOS like you could on #Linux (and #Windows, probably). #Apple forums I was looking into this on all starts with a simple, civilised question and quickly drags into a messy garbage of Apple extremists saying you're stupid for wanting that simple way of opening stuffs in a new tab when you can just either 1) Cmd + Click, 2) 2 finger tap + Open new tab, or 3) Get a mouse - as if those are the same things, when the answer should've been really, "you couldn't".
