This was fixed from what I have read. MS changed the behavior of the default applications applet to prevent the application from doing the change to stop malware installers that change your defaults.

AC has your answer. The Express install changes the defaults, as it redefaults many settings. If you do Custom, it asks after the first login.

I upgraded.

You have to select express install for the change to happen. If you choose custom install instead, it asks you which you would like to use. I upgraded a laptop from Windows 8.1 Pro to Windows 10 Pro.

Despite it being very easy, not every person who owns a car knows how to change the oil, change a tire, or replace brake pads. Not every computer user knows how computers work, and I would suspect that many people who drive cars consider internal combustion to be a black box process.

12/5 = 2.4 kJ, so it is still in the range, that would be a little less than 50% efficiency (as ShanghaiBill stated above).

-5 troll article here.

I just installed Windows 10 last night. After the install was complete and you log in the first time, it asks you which of the installed browsers you would like to use. It still had Chrome, I selected it and it has since used it.

Does Mozilla want theirs to be at the top of the list? Do they expect that Windows 10 will carry over every setting from 7, 8, and 8.1?

Did the Mozilla CEO even try to install Windows 10 before firing off a message complaining?

That does explain some things...I always wondered why people give me such odd looks when I walk around in public.

So that makes it ok to fly a drone over a pool area where people are sunbathing? Just because the fence isn't 40 feet tall, and the pool not completely covered, it is presumed ok to spy on these people in their back yard?

You have to reach pretty damn far to justify that one.

I agree, but it is what is required of the police and CPS. When they receive a report, they have to remove the kids while they investigate to determine if injury is being done to the children. This happened because of lawsuits where people were saying "you received reports of this abuse, but you didn't remove the kids", well now they are forced to remove them.

APK, seek help, you have this delusion, and it doesn't seem to be getting better.

The FEATURE of which you speak is an optional item, not required. Who cares if ABP subsidises itself by allowing some advertisements through to those who have agreed to see them? Perhaps ABP will lead to more ad networks improving their behavior so they can make some money, who knows.

Now, if only hosts file or ABP would block your crapflood of posts, life would be grand.

Gaming, video, work, etc using a remote (as in not wired) display, sound, and input devices. It's not a difficult concept.

A PC that can play Counter-Strike: Global Offensive in high-definition and costs 1/6th as much as my video card? Impressive. Or are you using a slightly loose definition of "play/do whatever you want", more along the lines of "do anything it was designed for?"

Yeah, nothing like using remote desktop to connect a cheap laptop to your high-end gaming machine and then trying to play Counter-Strike: Global Offensive.

Wings that are full of fuel will float too, because jet fuel has a lower density than water.

The big advantage of the DC air conditioner is that you can run it in parallel to a traditional air conditioner and don't have to worry about the grid connection. This will take load off of the main air conditioner and save money. No special controllers needed, just set the target temperature on the DC unit below the target of the traditional system. That way the traditional system should only run when it's both hot and dark/cloudy.
