I for once have to disagree with this week's choice - maybe it is due to me not having seen the movie, and therefor cannot relate the song to anything, but I do not like it. OTH, I really loved the ones from Coco.

It's not necessary to know the movie to enjoy the soundtrack in my opinion.
I mean, the complete instrumentation is unrelated to any story (well, except that it takes place in Colombia, but that's trivial).
Only the lyrics are related to the story and really all you need to know about that is that they don't talk about some guy named Bruno 
I'm not big on lyrics though, so maybe you want to take more out of it.
I've seen Coco, but don't know the soundtrack, now I'll have to check it out!

I already had the sound of the week in the night. Cat serenade under someone's window. The performance ended abruptly, not with applause, but with a loud splash of water.
I have lived with several Zen masters - all of them were cats.

Recently my Windows 10 search bar started displaying stupid hippy-big-tech woke messages like this one:
"Celebrate Earth Day" with a stupid icon. It is distracting and unwanted. My built-in rebellious nature and resentment of authority and being a general A-Hole makes we want to do the opposite.
How do I return it to a nice empty, non-offensive, non-distracting white box like it is supposed to be ?
I assume it some registry key, but which one ?
This one makes me want to go out and buy a 2002 Hummer and spread weed killer and fertilizer in my yard and then throw my garbage in the river. I can't wait to see the next one. Maybe BLM, Obamacare, Groom Children day, Cut your junk off day, etc.

This smells like malware. Are you using Bing ?

Today is Earth Day. I got the same thing.
The Settings option (gear icon) unfortunately don't have a "nothing" for my so-called interests.

If you want to publish it on CodeProject (and many do) there are helpful guidelines to be found through the "articles" menu.

Open source is a license that you can grant on your code. It's not a rule.
There's no rules or instructions; only that you say it is allowed to share that code. That can be done under existing licenses (like GPL), or one that you make up. You may want to look up the "beerware" license.
Joking aside; people used my codes. It's an exceptional magic

I used MS Office since the early 1990s, always thanks to the volume discounts my employers got. But then my Office Pro 2016 got munged, and I had to factory-reset my PC, and now my options are $400-something for a standalone version of Office or $100 a year for Office 365. Obviously, Office 365 is the far better deal, but then I asked myself if I needed Office.
Looks like I don't. I've installed Thunderbird for email, and that works fine. I use Access in application development because it has a nice interface, but I can do the same with SQLite and "DB Browser for SQLite." If I need to open Word or Excel files, it looks like Google Docs and even Microsoft's free web-based Office apps can do the trick.
How about you?

I use Office 2003 (Word and Excel only really), with the converters, it's just fine.

I have used the Office 2010 version from the MSDN set of CDs when i had the Ultimate(?) version of VS many moons ago. Avoided any updates since then.....

So true! I even prefer (and still use daily) Access 2003 for query design. Why can't the sql server team take notes from the Access team on something simple like remembering window sizes or object positions/layouts? I keep expecting with each new (every time I start SSMS there's an update!) version of SSMS that these simple things might be fixed and every time, I'm disappointed. 
Find an old office xp disc. It will still install, it just won't update, so there's that bonus!

For 'light-weight' stuff I use Google. If I need to do something a bit more serious, I use LibreOffice - it's free/open source and, (in my experience), totally compatible with MS Word & Excel. And I actually prefer the interface to that of MS.

Not so long ago, I was forced into using Libre or OpenOffice, cannot remember which one it was, because that was the tool of choice of my son's school. This was the worst experience ever. /edit: 50% probably because I am not used to the tool UI, I reckon, but 50% because the tool was really poor once you used it for something else than writing a few lines and inserting two images.
I know bashing MS Office has been going on for years, but let's be honest, the tools are awesome, and I would not switch to anything else - while the free alternatives are probably good enough for most, they do not come close to the Office toolchain.
At home, I use resold unused Office licences and always got the full professional edition for max 50€ - Currently happily using 2016 version and I do not plan to change it anytime soon.
And generally speaking, I avoid all kind of subscription system, which is the new rip-off trend of software industry nowadays. "recurring revenues", or how to make ten times more money with the same thing.
