Windows 10 may be “free,” but there’s a price to pay for claiming your no-cost upgrade from Windows 7 or 8: The operating system’s brimming with ads designed to coax you into buying this app or using that Microsoft service. Some of the ads are pretty unobtrusive, to be fair. Several get right up in your face, however—an unfortunate experience in any case, but one that hurts even more if you’ve already dropped $100-plus on a Windows 10 license rather than snagging a free upgrade. Fortunately, most of Windows 10’s ad pushing can be disabled with a few simple menu tweaks, and it’s worth making the effort to do so, since Windows 10 is the best Windows yet…

View File Windows 11 ISO To get started you first need a licence to install Windows 11 or have a Windows 10 device that qualifies for an upgrade to Windows 11. Make sure you have: An internet connection (internet service provider fees may apply). Sufficient data storage available on the computer, USB or external drive you are downloading the .iso file to. A blank DVD disc with at least 8GB (and DVD burner) to create a bootable disc. We recommend using a blank USB or blank DVD, because any content on it will be deleted during installation.

How it would change smartphones forever? Fast forward 17 years, and we're still dealing with °Terrible autocorrect and predictions: Misspelled words, nonsensical suggestions, and constant frustration. °Unchangeable keyboard size: A huge wasted space at the bottom of the screen that could be used for a larger keyboard on at least pro max phones. °Inconsistent haptic feedback: No way to adjust the intensity of vibration. °Inefficient keystrokes: S…

A New Random NSFW button Shortcut (Reddit iOS app)
by Guest /u/Demigod787- 0 replies
- 7 views
As you may have noticed, or not, Reddit, in all their infinite wisdom, decided to kill off RandNSFW. To cut a long story short, I’ve created a shortcut to replace it, but you must install a text file with all the NSFW subreddits listed in it for it to run as a prerequisite. And the text file is here. The Shortcut is here. Here’s another version of the Shortcut that will give you pop-up telling you what subreddit you’re about to visit, you either accept or reject. It takes all the fun out of RandNSFW imo. I wanted to release this earlier today, but I found that all the available NSFW lists are outdated. To be exact, out of 5000 NSFW subr…

Pictures deleted after 18.1 update
by Guest /u/EggNoise- 0 replies
- 6 views
I updated to iOS 18.1 just yesterday and when I accessed my photos I saw that I have none left that I had taken prior to March of 2023. That’s nearly 3/4 of my pictures completely gone and I really would like them back if anyone knows the issue or how this happened. I already went into my ICloud to see if I could redownload the photos but I noticed that all the photos I have on my phone’s storage are the same ones in the ICloud storage, how did this happen? Any solutions about how to fix this?? submitted by /u/EggNoise [link] [comments]

When I’m typing a message will pop up saying “undo” and I will lose my whole message. It doesn’t ask me if I want to undo it, it just happens. When was this added? Why was it added? And how do it turn it off? It’s irritating as hell. submitted by /u/ComplexFishing9476 [link] [comments]

Anybody else having issues where they copy something, then go into another app, only to find that the clipboard is empty and you don’t have any paste option? It seemed to be minor before iOS 18, but now on 18.1.1 it’s every other thing I try copying. submitted by /u/DanteHicks79 [link] [comments]

ios 18.1.1

I really wish that we still had the option to go back to the previous update if we wanted to. I'm not really against new updates or changes incase anyone is going to try to suspect me of being that. However, I do wish that for especially such big updates like this one, more so specially in terms of layout and such, I wish that we could have a choice as to wether we want the new layout and new design or keep the previous one. It seems like people from both sides get very defensive whenever this new update is brought up, so therefore I truly do wish that if it could have been possible - to give the choice to the individual user in terms of design choices rather than being f…

Is it possible to revert to the old UI?
by Guest /u/P1KA_BO0- 0 replies
- 6 views
My phone updated to iOS 18.1.1 on accident and the UI in general is driving me crazy. I've got poor vision, and everything is so fucking tiny for no real reason. I can't easily exit the control centre by swiping down, because some genius decided that should lead to an entirely different page. Half the goddamn screen isn't being used, and I often can't gauge what button I'm looking at. Is there any way to revert the UI in control centre and safari? Or at least get rid of that stupid game mode pop up? submitted by /u/P1KA_BO0 [link] [comments]

https://b.thumbs.redditmedia.com/RyNZw6VL6gHr5A5znXbbDJ006WPeKk8SPIQs2WODUps.jpg Made a post a few days ago but my situation has gotten worse, so posting here to warn others. Bought a new MacBook M4 Pro from Best Buy and when I opened the box I saw a scratch on the laptop and some finger prints which I thought was shoddy QC, but didn’t appreciate what had occurred until I went into the settings after booting the machine and saw it was a 2021 M1 model with 125 cycles on the battery! Only explanation I can think of is that someone bought it previously, swapped the laptop and reapplied the seals and returned to Best Buy (or someone on the inside made the swap). The fi…

Is it worth getting a 2010 iMac?
by Guest /u/Silver-Mud6150- 0 replies
- 7 views
Hi guys, Unfortunately I'm not a Mac user and don't know so much about it. I have and had apple products like iPhone and iPad anyway. I've found a 2010 iMac 21.5 in good condition, with 12 gb ram (upgraded) and 1TB at 100€. Run a OS 10.2 or something. I don't need a super computer because I already have a nice windows laptop for my engineering studies, but would be cool to have a desktop pc like that and for this price seems quite good... Is it good and usefull or is it too old to run essential things? I would use it like PDF reader, web searching, maybe some music, "hardisk" or storage setup and stuff like that. Thanks everyone. Peace submitted by /u/Silv…
