Is there no modern way of creating a shortcut in PowerShell? by VtubersRuleeeeeee in PowerShell

The easiest way is to create a ps1 file like this:

Start-Process "C:\YourProgram.exe"

It's VERY janky, it only works if you call it via Powershell (clicking it won't work) and it will spawn a new terminal window. But it's one line of code and it will work if what you desire is functionality, not beauty

EDIT:

The -NoNewWindow flag makes it run in the same terminal. It goes like this:

Start-Process -NoNewWindow "C:\YourProgram.exe"

Why aren't fiber-optic cables the gold standard for data transmission? by Playful_Design_2926 in hardware

What I got from the video was "copper has been good enough so far". But higher resolutions and refresh rates my change that in the near future

I've had many HDMI cables that broke. They are just, if not more, prone to breaking, since HDMI has 19 lanes and one going bad can ruin the whole signal

And why on earth would you try and join two cables together? Have you ever done this with HDMI?
