This one is pure gold :)

Windows 22H2 is such a disaster, no wonder it's "optional". I had to uninstall it (Couldn't move windows by dragging the title bar to name one glitch). It left remnants though? File Explorer with an odd gallery, Paint (I think?). The Dev Home (a weird thing I couldn't figure out) dissapeared.

My old Thinkpad died and Pop!OS along with it. So I recovered my Debian NUC and I restaged with Pop!OS. Quite a pleasant experience (the keyboard/mouse weren't but that's a wireless Logi issues story..). A couple of hiccups ("Network was interrupted" in Chromium) but otherwise lovely.

Ah crazy things in the industry. At least back then it was about development software now they fight over stupid social networks :D

Rings a bell! Wasn't there a J Net or Visual J or something too by Microsoft? I remember Borland/Inprise had in fact a J Builder too :D

Oh there was a Microsoft J# too right?

Yeah you're right, the little I saw it of C# resembled Java (which I don't know much of either, but the syntax is recognizable). I think there's Delphi in the spirit, more than anything. Or maybe C++ Builder :D

Oh yeah I definitely wouldn't do that or pay a dime there :D (although to be honest I had to almost take a family snapshot the other day for airtm. But well one has to eat :D )

Yeah well C# was created by Anders, the heart of Delphi, so it should have been my natural move. But I didn't. Good thing it's free. I have a little unnatural aversion to the .NET dependency (one EXE no DLLs was my mantra) but these days it's quite embedded in Windows so I should get over it :D
