Yea, kinda. It forces it hard though.

There is no obvious way to skip the MS account. You can select that it is a managed device and create a local user that way, but afaik that’s the last option left and obviously it is there for a very different intention.

I am sure that if MS could remove it completely they would.

Unfortunately it has a habit of jumping around due to its asynchronous weird fuzzy search. So when typing fast you sometimes randomly launch the wrong action. It is especially inconsistent, because files are also indexed and by default it also includes web searches so the behavior is always changing.

I believe this got introduced with Windows 10 and feels just bad. Unless you are typing slowly and actually scan the results the search is doing a bad job as an application launcher like it was with Windows 7 for example.

It kinda is though. Iirc it received an interrupt it shouldn’t have received and doesn’t know how to resolve. It is not supposed to ignore it, but then the only other option is crashing at this point. Basically it continues in a dazed and confused state.

Of course the message could be clearer, but at least it also makes the message easily searchable.

Limburger or Esrom are probably my favorites. Mild, but aromatic cheese is what I prefer. Unfortunately the smell can be off-putting.

Over 50% of all adults are overweight here.

Every single meal has some form of pasta, potato or rice as a side unless you pick a salad and even then you get some complementary white bread when you eat out.

I always get weird looks when I am asking for more salad or vegetables and no frites.

Just check the menu of any random restaurant around you and look for any low carb option which is not a salad. It is really difficult where I live unless it is a tapas bar.

Ohh, that’s an interesting take! I guess for large parts of Asia it is a bit different. It is a problem in north America as far as I can tell and in Europe where I am from.

You are right with everything you say.

Still the consumption of carbs is too normalized. Many people believe that you should have carbs with every meal which is insane. Just look at any restaurant food, fast food and everywhere. Unless you are dieting you for sure don’t have to avoid carbs, but don’t seek them out either.

I believe this is the single biggest reason for the obesity problem. Most meals really shouldn’t have any added carbs, yet they do.

It depends on the meaning of amount. By volume no, you can continue to eat like always if you adjust the food itself.

Technically yes, it is a food restriction, but in the end it is especially a calorie restriction which is the important part.

You are absolutely correct though.

That’s a tough one. Proteins are a much more useful source of energy and nutrients here. There are limits though and then it doesn’t really matter how you get your calories.

So obviously carbs are cheap food and pack a lot of calories which might be beneficial in this scenario.

You are right. I can’t argue with that, but I would be careful with this as general advice.

In the end carbs are just sugars of different complexity. For example add some saliva to starch and you got glucose. Hence white bread, pasta and even potatoes are really bad for your blood sugar.

You don’t have to avoid them, but carbs are not necessarily part of a healthy and balanced diet. Their only benefit is that they are cheap sources of energy. If you don’t eat carbs the body has to use fat to metabolize sugar which works just as well.

It is useful to avoid carbs for a diet, because you can remove a lot of calories from any meal by replacing them with mostly vegetables without reducing the portion size at all. Also it helps with cravings a lot.

Up to 355687428096000? That’s impressive!

That’s actually cool. I have to remember it next time I have to deal with html mail.

Now do html mail!

That’s fine. The problem lies in talking about their works which might encourage others to buy the books or merchandise etc. Unfortunately the best result would be if the work and the author would be forgotten, but that’s unlikely to happen. So at least when talking about the works it should never be omitted that the author is a horrible person who abuses her influence to hurt other people.

Hence I disagree with the take. This way around the work should not be separated from the creator, because popularizing it is enabling even if you won’t consume any more than what you already have, others might.

No offense, but just no. If you don’t like the art, but the artist that’s fine, absolutely no problem here, but supporting a person like J. K. Rowling financially by consuming their creation is actually a problem and should be opposed.

This view is enabling horrible people and not okay.
