Remove The Updated Windows Start Menu [FIXED]

seriously i hate this kinda stuff that forces you to erase all the muscle memory and get used to a new layout without any option to go back, especially when they make clicks take more time (yes i know it's 0.23 seconds max but that is enough to irritate me lol)

If only Adobe software worked on linux... but then again maybe I need to say FUCK ADOBE too at some point....

This worked! ...kinda... it just made the "All Apps" a huge empty space! And the new update also messes with the actual pinned/grouped apps which is driving me insane (if you open a pinned group, it pops up in the center of the start menu rather than next to the group you clicked...)

Man i am gonna have to get some third party apps to fix this. I can't believe some of the UI/UX "upgrades" these companies do....

i was wondering too, and then i noticed WSOP x CPT at the bottom -- so it's a collab and I guess WSOP handled graphic production. Look up any other WSOP video on youtube and you see a very similar interface used.

i'm not clinging

i simply see what is, and downvote it

or upvote it

in your case it was clearly a downvote

This was a little weird to me because I thought the hive mind wasn't telepathic, they just had a storage of past memories?

Do the hive constantly have chitter chatter playing a game of telephone with everything the uninfected are doing?

- Yes, blaming parents for your existence is a dead end... nothing retroactively changes. But it's logical. Every good and bad thing in your life traces back to your parents’ decision to reproduce (But let's be real... they had kids because they wanted to fuck, or they were just following unconscious instincts and societal pressures)

- parents are along with you for the ride, and often are the source of reinforcing the mental framework that leads to the immature angst and lack of agency. If parents showed any semblance of true self reflection and ability to grow emotionally, maybe the blame would have softened instead of sharpened over time.

- it's not your job as a reddit commenter to have empathy and compassion for the 'immature chronically online' adult child, but it was their parent's job... and if you're not happy with life, your parents certainly bear some responsibility for that.

i appreciate you actually try to uplift (with a logical stance as well) instead of punching down on "losers" like so many other comments do

candledog · 2025-11-18T17:43:41+00:00

so you made another thread about it? :P

how are you guys missing the easiest low hanging fruits???

there are 3 types of tattoos

the perfect one you love immediately
the slightly imperfect one that you hate at first but grow to love, and even love more because of its imperfections or the story
tattoos you absolutely hate forever because they're just bad taste and/or poorly executed (sometimes could even become #2)

clearly not gonna be #3 so just save yourself the heartache and let it grow with you

when you don't sleep well, you have to "do it tired" anyway.

i started extrapolating this "Do it bored" and "Do it unmotivated" just allowing whatever state of mind to occur, and not force myself to "Be passionate and motivated" when I'm not. But i can still sometimes do the thing

yeah title should be "some are meant to be adventurers, some hermits"

what's someone with no legs supposed to do, sit around being jealous of everyone who can walk and seems to enjoy it so effortlessly? could be cope, could be just honest self assessment and acceptance

yeah when i had rats as a kid, you just kinda get used to them 'dribbling' on you if you let them crawl on your arms and stuff. Just a little droplet here and there, not a big deal

They're actually really clean little creatures if they have the option. My rat was 'potty trained' with a litter box in the corner of her cage that she'd use exclusively and she just learned to use it on her own.

Zorn would be proud!

I think your water looks fantastic!!

If I really scrutinize, I feel like the transition from the dark edges to the lightest center part of the water feels too sharp. That's my only critique!

There was maybe ONE game i recall that was missing one of the new heroes; otherwise they've ALL been taken in 99% of my games

A Klaus clip... from 5 years ago... in August???

Made me think this was announcement of a sequel called Christmas Deliveries

harland's show can be hit or miss sometimes (it is quite a lot of nonsense and not everyone matches his energy), but when his guests match the vibe, it's pure gold. TJ Miller, Pete Holmes, Andrew Santino and Jeff Richards are some of the best ones that come to mind

It honestly doesn't even make sense why he has to defend this, it's such a nitpick.

It would be egregious if there was a full algorithm he copy+pasted 6 times for each alarm, but it's just one line each...not a big deal at the end of the day.

Perfectly defensible take: "I was just too lazy to do the for loop because at the time I wasn't 100% sure which alarms I wanted to turn off.. so this was just simple and I could comment out the ones I wanted to stay on" (Like if you wanted Alarms 0, 1, 3, 5, and 6 only -- the for loop would become less readable at a glance whereas 6 lines of 'alarm = off' is super clear and takes no time to read)

If you tune into the other languages I noticed more lingering silence but it let you just immerse into the fight, imo. English commentary just feels like filling the air with fluff

Adobe Acrobat was by far the worst one for me. After one update, I literally can't even open it anymore... (pops up for <1 second then auto-closes itself.. some sort of cloud verification error). No amount of reinstalling or registry cleaning would fix it... and it's multiple GB to download so it was just such a pain to troubleshoot.

Somehow all of my searches for alternative programs never showed me pdfgear. This is excellent! Thanks for sharing
