Comment Yay all the awesome reasons (Score 0) 239

1. Visual previews of tabs in Microsoft Edge. Yay now I can preview it before I close it because it auto opens and that's the only reason I use edge.

2. Edge now has built-in support for ebooks. Actually not a horrid feature as long as I'm reading an ebook on my PC which I don't.

3. Microsoft Paint now lets people create models in 3D. Much like it painted as well as Photoshop?

4. Picture-in-Picture mode for videos. Essentially you can now have a small window with video playing on it placed on top of any other application. VLC has it and plays more file formats still...

5. Night Light: A baked in feature in Windows that will allow you to change the color and tone of display so that it doesn't pain your eyes to look at the screen at night. Or use correct lighting in a room

6. Dynamic Lock: The feature first requires you to pair your phone or tablet with the computer. Once done, it will automatically log you out everytime you're away from desk (or technically speaking, the device is out of the computer's proximity). Yay, now if I drop my phone, or pass it to someone to make a phone call my PC will lock

7. Native support for surround sound. *shrug* I have surround sound with my 7.2 speakers already

8. Ability to scribble and make notes on Microsoft's Maps app. Nobody uses Microsoft's Map app....

9. Game mode: It "ensures" your computer is always maximizing its resources for an optimal gaming experience. Ensures how? throttling my background tabs? How will it affect streaming?

10. Built-in support for mixed reality handsets. Yay, now we can hope that Microsoft keeps on top of their VR software...

Comment The problem with paying with cash... (Score 1) 385

The problem I have with paying with cash (and the only reason I have a card) is credit rating, if I need a loan 10 years down the line and I've always paid with cash, I have a crap credit rating. The only safe way at the moment is to ask your bank for a non-RFID card, or smash the transmitter (which I accidentally did in another card and the chip and pin still worked.)
