I had that a couple of jobs ago, but since then I’ve been stuck with Mac or Windows depending on the employer. I understand their reasoning, but it’s annoying. At my current organisation, I use WSL2 (which I was allowed to install for Docker support), and I do everything except the corporate stuff in that. So Edge, Teams, Outlook, whatever proprietary VPN we use at the time on the host, all my actual development work on WSL. It’s mostly fine.

Yeah, my gran’s one was the first time I’d seen that kind of thing. It was slimline and eco-friendly (for the time) and you bet you had to use the double-flush a few times if you’d been having the big lunches.

I have windows 11 on my gaming PC and work laptop and don’t think it’s any worse than 10. Some UI is confused between old style and new, but Windows has done that since Vista. 11 doesn’t have so much of the awful drop-downs without borders and so on where you can’t tell where one component ends and another starts.

You’re right on all counts

My grandmother’s house had a push-button flush in the early 80s when I visited, so probably earlier. She wasn’t wealthy or anything, and it wasn’t a new house at the time. How “modern” is modern?

I forsee a requirement that only “approved” OS are allowed to connect to mobile networks, citing security issues.
