0xffffabcd··on Modern CSV Version 2 Beta is now available
On Windows 10 (Version 10.0.19044 Build 19044) the main menu items show up on main monitor while the application is running on my second monitor.

I'm posting this since the developer is here and replying to the comments.

0xffffabcd··on Stack Exchange Is Now Stack Overflow
Either make a post on meta about the problem and provide a solution if you have on how to fix it OR make your own SO with your own rules. I'm really tired of seeing these off topic (whining) comments whenever SO comes up. It's useless and doesn't add anything to the discussion here.

> Such a soviet kind of operating system isn't well regarded in the land of the free

Land of the free? have you been living under a rock? "Land of the free" where everything you do is being spied on by a government agency funded with your tax dollars.

0xffffabcd··on Using Windows 10? Microsoft is watching
They are different articles about the same issue and I'm not trying to discourage discussion about it. It just gets old seeing the same thing on the front page but that's just my opinion and you don't have to agree with it.

For me it was an icon next to the clock. Once I reserved my upgrade I just hid it in the action center and it never popped again.

Upgrade notification is now adware? are you serious? You don't even have to pay for the upgrade and you'll have a lot to gain from it and for us developers, it's a good thing aswell since it might reduce the number of old IEs/plateforms we have to support. I expected more from an HN user..

0xffffabcd··on Ask HN: How's your drinking problem?
Same thing here. Never had a drink primarily due to my religion but even if it wasn't religious, the idea of losing control over what I might say or do scares me to no end. This is the reason why I don't drink/get high.

0xffffabcd··on Purism – Privacy-Respecting Laptops
Am I the only who thinks that it's way too expensive for what it offers? I mean a U i7 processor, 4GB of ram and a 500GB HDD for $1800+. It sounds insane to me (I'm still a college student so my perspective might be skewed a bit)

EDIT: Can anyone explain how they manage to max the memory to 32GB when the intel ark page[1] for that processor says that the maximum it supports is 16GB?
