Judgement, taste and quality were always precious skills. In the world of , I have become more aware of the fact that it is often hard to put in words why something is good, great or amazing - or just looks good, but is average.

a Windows 11 újabb meglepetése: amellett, hogy a kezelőfelülete sokkal gányabb, mint a Windows 10-é, állítólag most 10 napot kellene várnom addig, ameddig az előző rendszer törli magát a gépről

Another surprise from Windows 11: in addition to the fact that its interface is much more annoying than Windows 10's, I now supposedly have to wait 10 days for the previous system to delete itself from the computer
