This is a relatively unknown issue, but I hate how pretty much all tech companies and software creators completely disregard color spaces. Apple and Adobe are the only companies that give a shit about this, and I have to commend both of them for optimizing every aspect of the user experience. They are unmatched when it comes to content creation and editing. Windows 10 does have some support, but you have to go out of your way to enable it, and it doesn't always exist. Linux is a fucking disaster and I can't think of any FOSS user interface that's been done correctly.
I have a computer monitor with the DCI-P3 color gamut. This color gamut is 25% larger than sRGB, which is the most common color gamut on computer monitors. It physically has more colors, particularly in the red, green, and yellow areas.

Windows 10 has shit support, and every application just over-saturates the colors as a result, making them inaccurate, because the colors used in them only exist in the sRGB color space, and the software can't tell the operating system to maintain their accuracy when DCI-P3 or alternative color gamuts are present. Reds, greens, and some yellow becomes much more vivid. I don't mind the oversaturation, and actually find it to be quite pretty looking, but in terms of accuracy and proper utilization, it just doesn't exist.
If a game developer for example wanted to take advantage of this, they could stylize their game with these higher color gamuts in mind. They could accurately use all the colors in the sRGB space, but could also use the additional colors in higher gamuts for proper model/object representation (If you wanted flowers in a game faithful to real life, for instance). Every object would be properly colored and doing this you could improve immersion immensely (Psychologically speaking, using accurate colors would not form conflicts in your brain, and would "trick" it into thinking that the game is closer to, if not real life. If you see a common object in a game with inaccurate colors, your brain is going to subconsciously notice the inconsistency). This would also mean the experience would be consistent across different users.
Immersion in the future will be a combination of high frame-rates (>120 FPS), sync technologies (Gsync/Freesync) to eliminate screen tearing (Should be a standard feature on every monitor at this point), larger and more accurate color spaces, and higher resolutions such that pixels cannot be visibly differentiated. Apple knows what they're doing.

I admit I don't have a very deep understanding of this stuff, but is this the reason that every Windows device I encounter seems to emit light that is so goddamned blue by default that I have to spend 10 minutes adjusting the monitor colors so it doesn't burn my eyeballs? Or is that more a problem with the monitor itself?
You can still buy perpetual licenses to Office, and I highly recommend you do so while you still can.and not being able to outright buy shit anymore (I.e. monthly ms office
As Kd was saying -- MS office you can still buy office licenses (*look for office 2019 at this time instead of office 365) though it can be found cheaper than the MS site price..by a lotI hate the move for everything being a subscription now and not being able to outright buy shit anymore (I.e. monthly ms office, some 3d art stuff, etc.).
Not to mention you can turn the already huge phone into a giant DSThe size of phones has gotten ridiculous as well. It's like I'm carrying around a PSP constantly. My old S7 is dwarfed by the absolute titan that the V60 is and I though the S7 was big when I got it. It's almost comical compared to the old iPhone 3G my wife has kicking around.
this looks fantastic for DS emulation.Not to mention you can turn the already huge phone into a giant DS View attachment 1649962

Lmao, if I wanted to play any DS games on dual screens like that, I'd just buy a DSthis looks fantastic for DS emulation.
On a related note, I miss the old split flap arrival/departure boards like the ones they used to have at Roma Termini.technology has also made certain aspects of the railway network much more irritating
for a long time, departure boards at unstaffed and remote stations got information via cables; they are now wireless
net result: instead of telling you what trains are coming, the departure boards usually say something like "Error: No route to host / GPRS signal strength [|....]" - they might as well not be there
if you're paying for a ticket on the train, card payments are now done via mobile internet
net result: payments are often very slow and unreliable, and impossible if the train's in a tunnel or a deep valley (no signal)
one step forward and two steps back, but woooo, TECHNOLOGY!
I still kick ass at Double Dash.i miss memory cards. Gamecube niggas rise up.
Same but with those infrared facial scanning things like on all the new iPhones, so Apple and whomever can have a detailed 3D model of my fucking face. The fingerprint scanner was bad enough, but they removed that starting with the iPhone X in favor of the facial scanner, and that's a bridge waaaaaaaaay too far.The person who decided fingerprint readers on phones were a good idea needs to be shot.

Honestly I hate BOYB, both as an employee and as an IT guy.My dad has an iPhone for work, due to security purposes and he tells me he fucking hates using iPhones.
He ended up buying a secondary Motorola Android phone for personal use and sticking it on a prepaid plan because of it.
Honestly I hate BOYB, both as an employee and as an IT guy.
1) I want to be able to keep work at work for my sanity, maybe if shit is going down contact me, but I am not answering emails or reading them if I am not getting pad.
2) BOYB is shady as fuck as an employee, any employer that rightly/correctly values Infosec will make you install MDM apps on your phone, but because of that they can track you/wipe your phone/other shit.
2.5) As an IT guy I can't really secure/lock down devices properly (both morally and practically) if the company doesn't own the device out right.
Luckily my current employer understands this and forbids use of personal devices for work and supplies you with a phone/laptop/what ever your work requires.
Even if your dad loved the iPhone, IMO its best to have one for work and one for not work.
Anyone who chooses to give their biometric data away deserves what they get. I have an iPhone with Touch ID but it's disabled. I still use a passcode. And as for Face ID, lolz. Fuggedaboutit.
