  • One drive legitimately breaks windows, well not usually but only because developers are smart enough not to use it, the A problem with One Drive is that Windows in there infinite wisdom has decided to put default folders directly into One Drive: Desktop, Documents, Pictures, etc, if a developer was to actually use these folders the auto saves, restores and virtual files stored online would absolutely break what ever is stored in there, now this might sound obvious and of course they are only for the end user developers shouldn’t touch it, but that hasn’t always been true, it wasn’t that long ago when the documents folder was used heavily for saves , but more importantly if the user tries to backup other files that contain programs you know those things that are a hassle to reinstall, then they will break programs.










  • I always have issues with dns blocking so I tried something sneaky I redirected all DNS requests to 1.1.1.1/1.0.0.1 and it worked brilliantly, for about a month when it stopped working all together, I don’t know if a cache was wiped or google saw what I was doing and made a special exception just for me, obviously I want to believe I’m a special snowflake taking the world’s largest internet company head on in an epic battle of wits and skill but I think the cache thing might be more likely for some reason.

    I don’t blame anyone for forgetting their password—it’s a dumb system, having to memorize 100 separate 16-digit randomly generated base64 codes that change once a month. However, I do blame them for not using a password manager, and I do blame them for making their problems other people’s problems.
