i love how microsoft logo was placed where it belongs in 2000
By the way, nothing keeps you from converting any 256x256 pixel image into an .ico file and using it for the recycle bin icon.
In 2006 they knew! They knew recycling goes to trash and they didn’t tell us!
After emptying it the disk space is “recycled” I guess

Whoever decided to give it a dedicated keybinding is insane
That actually exists? Mental
Press Ctrl + Shift + Alt + Win + L in Windows for Linkedin
This is by default, and I don’t think there’s an easy way to turn it off.
Yeah, I’ve typed that so many times by accident…
Wtf wild, just tried it. Thanks, I’ll never use this.
LinkedIn - CTRL + SHIFT + ALT + WIN + L Word - CTRL + SHIFT + ALT + WIN + W Excel - CTRL + SHIFT + ALT + WIN + X PowerPoint - CTRL + SHIFT + ALT + WIN + P Outlook - CTRL + SHIFT + ALT + WIN + O Microsoft Teams - CTRL + SHIFT + ALT + WIN + T OneDrive - CTRL + SHIFT + ALT + WIN + D OneNote - CTRL + SHIFT + ALT + WIN + N Yammer - CTRL + SHIFT + ALT + WIN + Y
wtf is a yammer?
I think it’s like an internal social media for your Office 365 group. We have Yammer at work but I have never opened it.
…i thought that was teams?..
Who the hell uses social media while at work that’s limited to your work I wonder.
Holy shit, this is not even a joke
Someone built a shortcut to a job hunting site into the OS itself. Someone who works on the OS and for the company that made the OS. I can’t think of any greater advertisement that working for Microsoft is awful than the cry for help that is building a permanent link to a job hunting website.
I mean Microsoft owns the job hunting website lol
These ctrl shift alt win shortcuts are not meant to be doable manually, they’re for dedicated buttons on certain keyboards. A manufacturer wanted a linked in button so Microsoft made that shortcut. However, the fact that they are baked in instead of somehow detecting if a keyboard needs that button in a different way is a little strange. It’s like how the new copilot button uses a key combo with an F key higher than 12
Keyboards with physical F keys higher than 12 absolutely do exist tho.
This one’s ancient, but I also have a slightly less old apple wireless keyboard that goes up to F19. IIRC goes up to a theoretical maximum of F64, but don’t quote me on that.
I’m aware. But the point is that these shortcuts are meant to be awkward to the point of almost impossibility to do on a normal keyboard.
I maintain a Linkedin account for business, so I look into the account once in a while to connect to certain people.
A while back, I went into the account settings to lock it down … no notifications, alerts or announcements about anything … a week later, I still get alerts about some dumb thing from this stupid site
Hey! LinkedIn is useful for me, I just got laid off. And two weeks prior to my lay off, I got reached out by one Rep asking me for meeting and we just met and they offered me a contract. So LinkedIn is pretty useful for networking.
I frequently get contacted by recruiters but never productively. They either always want me to go work in Saudi Arabia (wonderful pay but I’m just not prepared to deal with their BS), or they’re not prepared to offer a reasonable salary, or they haven’t even remotely bothered to read my CV and just reckon that any tech job is the same as any other tech job.
I miss when software was vaporwave pixel art
It’s crazy how they kept switch the number and color of arrows.
Somebody is justifying their sorry existence by making changes nobody asked for.
Consumers asked for it. Nothing much changes now, but people would complain about the whole OS looking too cartoony, too sterile, whatever. Style changed fast back then.
Are you marketing by any chance as they have their fair share of pushing idiotic, moronic changes nobody asked for.
nice touch on the 2000er Icon :)
it became round, turned around, turned back around, and became square again.
95 was peak icon
A little partial to 2006 myself
