Search on Start menu was not working for many users of Windows 11. Microsoft has admitted a server-side change is what broke it.
It’s fucked up that search on the start menu even requires anything ‘server-side’ to begin with.

It’s because it wants to take you out to the Internet as an option if you use it for something and feed you ads. It’s stupid as hell.

I would prefer that they leave Bing broken. It feels like defusing a bomb sometimes trying to use the search feature without accidentally opening the worst browser and search engine with “Overwatch” as my search term

Man, I truly can’t be happier with my upgrade to Linux(CachyOS). I even went on to replace my bullshit-ass Eero router with my own hardware running OpenWRT. I’m looking into dropping android as well to continue chasing that high.

QA is for cowards who don’t have faith in their code. Real programers can test in prod.
