I don’t know about this #macOS #Tahoe glass UI. It's giving me real #Windows Vista vibes.

A sleepy penguin standing, eyes closed, with the text "Your Linux after you install Microsoft Edge on it" implying reluctance and disappointment.

Fun fact: #Windows 95 (and in some cases the later versions) had a very suboptimal implementation of idle state — they would run a busy loop, heating the CPU unnecessarily. Of course, you could work around this by installing a third-party program that would detect this state and use a more optimal HLT instruction instead.
So you could say that the purpose of such a program was to pretend that it's doing something, so that the system wouldn't fall into its own idle loop.

Ciekawostka: #Windows 95 (a w niektórych przypadkach i nowsze wersje) miały niezbyt optymalną obsługę stanu bezczynności — wpadały w pętlę nieprzerwanego sprawdzania, czy mają coś do zrobienia ("busy loop"), niepotrzebnie grzejąc procesor. Oczywiście, można było to obejść, instalując program, którego jedynym zadaniem było wykrywanie tego stanu i przejmowanie obsługi bezczynności przy wykorz…

That’s not just a mistake, that’s a house arrest level offense in the penguin community.

#Windows11's new #StickyNotes app (a thinly disguised #OneNote) is fucking annoying. Since it is so-called "smart", and it attempts to provide context around the "source" of your note, its window is…

Windows 11 sticky notes app showing a note I just made. It captured the fact that before switching TO it, I was working in a browser window.
If I tab AWAY, unless I blow it open to its own little subwindow, the note itself closes (which I guess is reasonable). And for some reason the "+Note" and "Screenshot" buttons now appear. The addition of these buttons now shifts my list of notes down, visually disruptive.
If I tab to another application (or back to a browser as here), that "Recent notes" label changes to "Your notes from <Vivaldi icon> <name of webpage> - Vivaldi". 
Which is yet ANOTHER visual disruption out of the corner of my eye.
And there's a setting called "Remember the source: Automatically capture the active window information to help you remember better." with a checkbox. 

If you uncheck this box, the stupid label change remains, all that stops is where the top of your note has a snip of `Source: <what window you had open>`. The visual disruption of that label changing, and having the +Note/Screenshot buttons appear and disappear all the time is annoying AF.
