I mean, Tom Paris is a convicted terrorist and has abducted and mutated his captain in order to have sex with her. Successfully. And that's just who immediately springs to mind.
Starfleet is a wild bunch.

One day Gregor Samsa woke up and realized he had at least three friends.
True, but in Republican circles that man has a reality distortion field that makes the one Steve Jobs had pale in comparison. Trump could tell them he's the true god and Christianity is a lie and they'd scramble to find a way to rebuild their world view around that.
My guess is that when they say "Christian" they don't mean "following some version of the Christian faith" but "a Christian fundamentalist who wants to enforce their specific version of Christianity as the state religion".
I'm pretty sure that no American president to date is sufficiently Christian for them, nor is e.g. the pope.
Yep. I run Garuda and the main pull is that it's a more user-friendly Arch with a lot of stuff I want to use preinstalled. I don't really care about how XTREME it is or whether I might potentially get 1 FPS more.
All other things aside, which Logitech mouse are you talking about? Both my G Pro and my G 305 work out of the box. Logitech also advertises them as ChromeOS compatible and AFAIK the Logitech wireless dongles are USB HID compliant so seeing a Linux straight up refuse to interact with them sounds very weird.
You could probably make the Wheel of Time series 20% shorter if you removed the fashion descriptions and all instances of people conveying moderate annoyance through body language.
All other points aside, "the show is too character-centric and a spin-off could never work" is what a bunch of trekkies said when TNG was announced. No Trek without Kirk, Spock, and McCoy had any hope of being a good show.
Then TNG came out and it was fine.
For that matter, Atlantis worked just fine for me, as well. Universe didn't but that's mainly because it had focus issues and a weird tone. There is potential for a good new Stargate.
The question is, of course, what they'd do with it. The new Trek era has been pretty hit-or-miss and it's hard to say whether we'd get the Stargate equivalent of Picard or Strange New Worlds.
If it's another badly lit attempt at making a show out of nothing but curse words and scowls I'd pass. But if it's another fun, witty ensemble show that knows when to take itself seriously and when not to – yes, please.
I think a good way to handle this – as well as the wildly unpopular accessibility functions the post is about – would be to have it configurable and simply ask about it during initial user setup (aka OOBE).
That way people who didn't need it can turn it off and won't stumble over it after accidentally pressing the Windows key or holding down Shift a bit too long. People who need it can have it enabled right from the get-go without having to trigger some dialog first. Everyone's happy and having one extra step during initial setup isn't that much of a hassle.
Bonus points if Windows had configurable global hotkeys and I could make the Windows key do whatever I want. But the OOBE thing would be a good solution already.
It's a pun on the Met Gala. Honestly, this might be the most sensible Heathcliff I've seen so far.
I agree that it should be easily reachable. Just not through one single keypress. macOS's Spotlight serves a similar purpose and is reachable via Cmd + Space (with the Cmd key being right next to the space bar). That's just as easy to do as hitting one button but is extremely unlikely to happen by accident.
I personally use the start menu mainly for shutting down the computer as all commonly used programs are pinned to the task bar. A shortcut that opens it has no value to me as opposed to e.g. one that shows or hides a terminal window or one that mutes/unmutes me in Teams even when it's in the background.
And I do consider it disruptive because having the start menu unexpectedly pop open and swallow several keypresses (and in the worst case launching some application I didn't want to run) takes my attention away from what I was doing and forces it into something completely irrelevant. If this pulls me out of deep focus I can lose the equivalent of ten minutes of work due to one keypress.
The core of the problem is that this behavior is very annoying for people who don't use the start menu all the time and there's no way to change it. If it was just a default for a rebindable shortcut then it'd be a minor hassle once and nobody would complain. But the way it is it feels like Microsoft is trying to force-feed me the start menu, workflow be damned.
By the time he was turning into a lizard, apparently so.
