Windows: we noticed that you kept the useless search bar disabled since 2015, so we sent an update that re-enabled it without your permission (feddit.it)

For my "convenience" and because in this way they can show ads and clickbait

Also: I SET A FUCKING GROUP POLICY THAT DISABLES THE SEARCH BAR; WHY THEY FUCKING IGNORE IT???

    Love is a strong word. Hate it less is more accurate.

    That being said, Shut Up 10 is great.

    My technics earbuds briefly connecting to my MacBook and my MacBook proceeding to launch an Apple Music sign up screen over whatever I'm working on in the 5 seconds between me turning music off on my phone and putting my earbuds away says otherwise. Apple are assholes too. They're subtler about it than Microsoft but also much, much smugger.

    Looks like you replied to the wrong person. This should have been for the person above them who claims that windows obeys settings that are set properly.

    Not the person who realises that's a crock of s#!t

    Is the source code available for that anywhere? I wasn't able to find it after a quick look over the website.

    That doesn't answer the question, they asked if it's open source. I agree, I don't want to replace one sketchy data-harvesting service with another, I'd be a lot more comfortable giving shutup10 control of my system if it was on github or gitlab.
