  1. https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/powershell/module/microsoft.powershell.management/start-process?view=powershell-6#examples Check example 7. You don't appear to be using the right syntax for -ArgumentList. Start-Process -FilePath "$env:comspec" -ArgumentList "/c dir `"%systemdrive%\program files`"" OR Start-Process -FilePath "$env:comspec" -ArgumentList "/c","dir","`"%systemdrive%\program files`""
  2. The size of it compared to the "OEM Recovery" partition makes me think it's your old recovery partition, from the older windows install. Did you cleanly install the new version of windows?
  3. Unless you really need to play a game or do intensive 3D stuff, a Mac works for much the same stuff a windows 10 PC works for. With that you get the added bonus of less mainstream malware (not immune, mind you), less breaking settings accidentally unless you open up Terminal, and generally things just tend to have an easier setup flow. (E.g.: setting up my printer on my gaming PC took about 15 minutes to get done, but setting it up on my MacBook took about a minute).
  4. It says NTFS and you have it mapped to a drive letter. What's in it?
  5. Oh, vast, vast oversimplifications. News articles have been getting this wrong practically since the concept was first theorized. Despite the cool name, it still doesn't allow faster-than-light communication.
  6. It doesn't matter what field you're in. Employers don't like to find out that a worker only makes a tiny scratch in the surface of documentation and then stops because they couldn't find anything.
  7. Seriously though. They just bought github, they have the IMO best FOSS code editor with Visual Studio Code, they're rapidly building out .NET Core for cross platform compatibility. It wouldn't surprise me if we had Office for Linux soontm
  8. If it was an apple thing, then I wouldn't be able to view adult content on Reddit or Tumblr either. Apple has rules, and agree or disagree, you have to follow them to have an app listed on the store. Durov is obeying the rules in the most childish way, alienating half of his users from a portion of the service. Unless he's going to provide proof that Apple was blocking anything, I will remain skeptical of his explanation.
  9. As an avid Telegram user, it's quite apparent that Durov and his team do not care about iOS as a platform. The android application has gotten, and always will get, updates and new features first. Durov claims to be a champion of free speech and against censorship... unless you use iOS in which case there are swaths of public groups and channels blocked for "distributing adult content." I realize that such things are against Telegram's TOS, and it is well within Telegram's right to do this, but these groups are nonetheless accessible on android, PC, and the Mac DMG. Only on iOS and the Mac App Store is this behavior restricted, while apps like Reddit and Tumblr allow such adult content (if not WORSE adult content) with the toggling of a setting. It's also interesting to note that both those apps are 17+ rated, where Telegram is rated 4+. I find it difficult to believe this was anything but a dig on Apple users.
  10. I actually have one of these TVs. It's very very good. Could use another HDMI port though, but that's easy enough to fix with a switcher, even if it's not the most elegant solution.
  11. container-fluid makes the page 100% wide on all viewport sizes. container has the responsive breakpoints built-in so as you resize the viewport, it changes the max-width of the <div> to various different pixel widths (the exact widths are here) A navbar is fluid by default, so it should go above any containers, and you apply the responsive classes to the navbar items to make things change (documentation for that here)
  12. https://stackoverflow.com/questions/8599595/send-json-data-from-javascript-to-php Since you're using jQuery check the second answer. You will need to turn your "data" object into a JSON string first but that should do what you want.
  13. Exactly. Imagine if Dell banned you from installing new software on a computer, or using the internet, because you ran an Ubuntu LiveCD once on a Dell PC. The only saving grace is they say OS updates and Existing Game updates are still able to be downloaded, so unless the next hardware revision of the switch is going to drastically change the cartridge format, this doesn't really stop anything. I honestly wouldn't put it past them to make a "NEW" Switch with "better" features or something, to encourage people away from the faulty hardware that caused such things to happen in the first place.
  14. You'll have to reinstall them. When you wiped windows you wiped the registry, meaning most of the programs won't work even if you managed to get them running. If you have Steam there's a few ways to port the old folder to the new install of steam, but you're out of luck.
  15. Dark Souls is NOT hard to hack on PC.
  16. NG+ is new game plus. The game gets harder and harder and harder. Not to spoil too too much, but you do seem to be going on the right track. Keep going through the archives. The hacker must have killed the big lady, that's what happens when you kill that particular NPC after you beat O&S. I haven't played in a while so I'm not 100% on all the little details.
  17. Couple things: Always use DSFix, PVP Watchdog, and the Connectivity Mod. PVP watchdog and Connectivity, in particular, can greatly help prevent being hacked. Unfortunately, unless you can finish the game and NG+ you're screwed. Gotta reload a past save or start over to get NPCs back.
  18. Unlikely, considering the multitude of flash carts available for various consoles, not to mention GameSharks, GBC Worm Lights, and other "third party accessories" that nintendo never authorized or approved of. I'm no lawyer but I don't think Nintendo would allow things like the SD2SNES to be sold for almost 200 bucks, solely for playing SNES roms, if they had the legal right to stop such a thing from existing.
  19. https://www.visualstudio.com/vs/mac/ Dunno if this supports everything that you would need...but maybe?
  20. This implies that Java's development won't be stifled by Oracle deciding to require you pay for Java 8 licensing...
  21. My guess is they didn't think it was possible, hence the hard lockout in the interim while they presumably attempt to figure out how exactly these boxes work.
  22. "You are purchasing a non-exclusive, non-revocable, transferable license to use the Sony(R) PlayStation(R) 5(TM) console. You are not purchasing the console outright. The physical console is the sole, non-transferable property of SIE." --Sony's warranty, after the PS5 is released.
