  • Tbh out of the big corpos MS has been one of the least anti-competitive in the past 10-15 years. They like to push their own services with ads within their own services yes but that’s not really anti competitive in the truest sense, every company on earth does that.

    The biggest one I can think of recently is them having lower rates for Windows Server on Azure vs other clouds. Compare that with companies like Apple, Google who actively attempt to put down other services.

    IMO Nadella has been pretty decent in handling that part of MS. Though I don’t really have an answer to your Defender question lol.
























  • You’re just limiting yourself for no reason. Don’t forget that devices tend to get slower the more full they are and not to mention your phone is using up cycles to aggressively manage internal cache. Also, the more things you have cached on your phone again is better because it doesn’t have to use resources to do work again and again.

    I just checked my phone and 14 gb is used by “Temporary System Files”, whatever the hell that is but it sounds like cache is the primary use. That is not even counting the 10 GB used by Android. So it sounds like Android wants to cache as much stuff as possible.







  • If there’s some important time by when I need to wake up (flight/train to catch, or waking up to travel by car or go for an appointment) I wake up around 5-10 minutes before my alarm. Like, always. I wish I was joking.

    I am a very heavy sleeper. But I have no idea what happens to my internal clock at moments like those.
