Five months ago, I decided to make the switch from my trusty old desktop computer, running Arch Linux, to a MacBook Pro. I picked the 2015 13" base model with an upgraded hard drive. The device is beautiful, and just works™, which is pretty important to me.
The About Windows screen.
I upgraded Windows 10 from the RTM version (build 10240, July 2015) to the November Upgrade version (1511/build 10560). It took me a good two hours, multiple reboots, and a BSOD.
I got a Inbox invite (hat tip to Dawid Róż @dav4dav4) and spent a day with it. The same day, I got the Material Design upgrade for Gmail. Let’s review it.
I recently got a brand new smartphone. I had — pretty much — the world’s worst Android phone before. The new phone is much more up-to-date and modern. How bad was its predecessor? Well, I’ll be happy to tell you!
In a soap opera series. Haven’t done a series since 2010 (and I trashed that one). I also
haven’t blogged in Polish for quite long (since 2011, to be precise). This is
a change in both regards.
There is currently no schedule (and no finalized content), but the posts in the series are:
BONUS: Inbox (by Google) Review
The Four Pieces of Android, or why is it so fragmented
The Andro-Cheapo-Phone
“A <manufacturer> <model>, Subsidized by <carrier>”
TouchWiz makes no Sense: why OEM skins are evil
One System Fits All: Scaling in Android
The list of posts might be extended.
I’ve been busy, but I now have time to write about it: in a bit over one month, Microsoft sold 40,000,000 licenses of Microsoft Windows. That is a little bit above, hmm, nothing.
Steven Sinofsky said goodbye to Microsoft on Monday. Who is he, may you ask? The guy that provided us with entertainment for the last few months here. He was responsible for creating this beautiful piece of shit that is Windows 8. So, he fucked shit up and quit. Marvellous.
So, bye Steve, and have fun fucking shit up somewhere else. Maybe Scheißung, um, Samsung?
Windows 8 was released on 2012-10-26. That is, 16 days ago. Why am I writing about it now? Easy: because I did not even bother doing a review. This is just a bit of quick commentary.
On July 16th, Microsoft released a preview version of Office 2013. Here is my review.
Microsoft released Windows 8 Release Preview on Friday, June 1st. And I just wanted to start a game playthrough on Sunday. Wish me luck, as I want to do both ASAP. Here we go again!
Notice: Please read A Look at Windows 8 Consumer Preview first.
As I said at the end of the logo rant, I reviewed Windows 8. The third part of the <del>Twilight</del> Windows 8 saga, and the biggest one. I am going to post more stuff about it in the future, but here it is: the Kwpolska Windows 8 Consumer Preview Review. Enjoy.
