Dutchie2020··on Microsoft Defender Update removes all the desktop shortcuts
Unfortunately this also cleared out all .lnk shortcuts in the Start Menu folder. Will be interesting to see if Microsoft can restore all removed shortcuts and other files as promised.
Dutchie2020··on Android phones are sending significant amount of user data with no opt-out [pdf]
Does anyone here have any experience with the /e/OS mentioned in the article?
Dutchie2020··on Apple’s A15 chip will ship with an objc_msgSend branch predictor
Can someone please ELI5 this for me? What is the significance of speeding up objc_msgSend for Objective C?
Dutchie2020··on Argon One M.2 Raspberry Pi SSD Case Review
We've got a few of these running in the office.

This really is one of the best cases on the market right now. The cooling performance is the best I've seen so far and you can easily run max overclock with it.

There's also a cheaper variant without ssd slot available. If you're looking for a cheaper storage solution with decent performance, take a look at the Sandisk Ultra Fit 3.1 usb stick line.

Dutchie2020··on Windows 10x leak reveals another attempt at taking on Chrome OS
I'm a big fan of recent microsoft open source developments but this is just plain awful.

I like the concept of revamping the UI and shedding some of the win32 legacy weight but this seems like it will be completely unusable for any sort of power user. A Onedrive first filesystem seems like a nightmare.

Don't think I'm the target audience here but I really hope none of this ever makes it into regular Windows.

Dutchie2020··on Open source security tools list
Flagging seems a bit excessive. I have no affiliation with penetrum. Just thought the collection as a whole was interesting. Of course it's not a perfect list as it seems to be a one time post.
Dutchie2020··on Open source security tools list
Really wasn't expecting some much feedback on this list, just found it while looking for some SIEM solution and thought it was interesting. Your site looks way better though! Maybe the admins can change the URL?
Dutchie2020··on Introduction to Microsoft Edge WebView2
So nice! It's evergreen, officialy supported and host <-> client interop seems really easy. Hope it supports h264 video, which has been lacking in other open-source chromium based alternatives due to licensing issues.
Dutchie2020··on More ways, we’re making app development easier on Windows
Very excited about webview2, long overdue. No more need for CEFsharp or electron for simple projects.
Dutchie2020··on Did you ever need to run a piece of C# code on Windows 3.11?

HN Kiss of death
Dutchie2020··on Netflix – Evolving Regional Evacuation
It means rerouting clients / webrequests to other aws regions / hosting locations when computing resources become unavailable or experience downtime in their region.
Dutchie2020··on Native lazy loading has landed in Chrome
Nice, native deferred rendering for style sheets next please!
Dutchie2020··on Flat Earthers Nearly Derailed a Space Photo Book
The documentary "Behind the curve" gives a nice glimpse inside the minds of Flat Earthers.
Dutchie2020··on It's raining plastic: microscopic fibers fall from the sky in Rocky Mountains
Yes, and filling the environment with lots of plastic eating bacteria will also make it useless as a durable packaging material.
Dutchie2020··on Show HN: A list of no-code software, by category, with real-world examples
Cool! There's some pretty nice tools in there.
Dutchie2020··on It's raining plastic: microscopic fibers fall from the sky in Rocky Mountains
I guess our only hope to ever clean this up is for evolution or bioengineering to give us some microplastic eating bacteria.

How about Vivaldi?

Thx, didn't know that, Qihoo seems pretty shady indeed.
