PC Master Race@lemmy.world•Windows 11's slowest feature is about to get dramatic speed improvements, and its File Explorer's This PC searchEnglish
5·20 hours agoI’m probably in much of the same boat as the author. I never use that search because it’s slow and never really finds what I want. It’s always quicker to get to the file I’m looking for in some other way. Even if that means going to the internet to see where an application stores its files.
I don’t think any of these fixes are going to change my behavior though.
EDIT: I should have mentioned I’m on Windows 10 on my personal computer anyway. So it’s not like I’m getting any fixes anyway. But it also sounds like there isn’t this type of problem on Windows 10 to begin with.

Aviation@lemmy.world•United Airlines Now Says it Won't Rebook Passengers Away From Donald J. Trump Airport For Free: 'It Was a Poorly Worded Memo'English
16·2 days agoNothing but negatives to renaming the airport. No one likes the name, it costs them money to have the name, they needed to pass a controversial law just to be able to name it, and then another controversial decision to approve the use of the name.
You know who’s paying for that name? Anyone flying into that airport, at the least.

Work Reform@lemmy.world•Return to office propaganda floating around LinkedIn
5·2 days agoMy goal? Not to get promoted. I don’t want to manage people.
Even if that is how it’s working, it’s up to the website to send that command. The app isn’t looking at the URL you enter. That’s why you can force the browser to go to the desktop version of the site to actually get it to load. The URL is the same. In any case, the company controls the app and the website. It’s on them for how it works.
And even if you prevent it from loading the app, there’s probably still not going to be a website to load.
It’s annoying because it’s the default functionality, not that there is no way to get a website to load.

United States | News & Politics@lemmy.ml•Need for speed? Driving above the speed limit costs you — and doesn't actually save much time
6·2 days agoNo, you should actually follow through with the math. I used a simple example in hopes it would be obvious.
At a distance of 100km it take 60 minutes at 100kph. Change that to 120kph and it takes 50 minutes. 20% quicker would be 48 minutes. 20% faster gets you there 16.666% quicker.

Late Stage Capitalism@lemmy.world•Why take the loss when you can get a tax deduction?
9·2 days agoI made a mistake from the get go. I didn’t even notice the lettuce was in Taylor Farms boxes. Figured it could have been from an unaffected supplier. But that’s not the case.
Don’t even get me started on sites that automatically load the app when you go there on a phone.

93·2 days agoNo, that’s not how the math works out. Doubling your speed only halves the time it takes.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•If you could see one statistic above every person's head, that is updated in real time and never goes away, what would you choose?
11·5 days agoIt was easier to program that way. The odds of it ever not being 0 were too small to spend the resources for a proper indicator.
