I'd be slightly more worried for the planes trying to land and having to overhear football strategy than I care about some athelete being bothered by hearing pilots talking.

Aww....I was expecting some kind of cool DIY take on wireless power transmission, if only over a few short centimeters so you could hide the transmitter somewhere under a tabletop and transmit power to your lamp.

You really have a point there, but there is still some usefulness in Windows using CMD/batch. I've actually crafted some nifty little batch files that I use all the time (though, I'm far from an "ordinary" user).

Which is why you create articles similar to this one, trying to teach people the usefulness of the command line. Just that it would make more sense to target Windows users in order to have the widest reach. Seriously folks, this isn't rocket science (though I'd gladly discuss that with you as well).

And what the video shows is, indeed, very disheartening.

On the other side of that argument, though, commissioned salespeople don't really care about the customer. They pretend to care, sure, but all they really care about is how much extra they can drive up a sale in order to make a higher commission.

Not sure I get the point that you're trying to make with that video. Yes, it shows a lot of customers being ignored, but that's about all it shares in common with the article's video.

This video is obviously from the mind of an asshole shopper. It's actually quite interesting (though not at all surprising) psychologically. People tend to think their memory is objective and concrete, like storing things on your hard drive, but it really isn't. The brain likes to re-frame its memories to better…

It is, first and foremost, a store, so why wouldn't they value sales experience? That mindset doesn't thrill me, but I do see the logic in it. You don't need to know how to code in assembly or create your transistors to memorize the specs of a few different models and answer EXTREMELY basic questions. Seriously, go…

Try reading that again. It makes me sad *that so many people think this is an accurate depiction.* As in, there are a lot of people who don't recognize it as an exaggeration.

No, just 90% of the world...

"While a lot of the tutorials and videos on this page are Linux-centric..."

I know it's supposed to be comedy, but it makes me sad that so many people think this is an accurate depiction, when it's clearly a gross exaggeration of every real and imagined unpleasant experience.

What do I want that the new Start screen cannot do?
