Remember the desktop? It used to be a popular development target, before all the mobile-first, cloud-first and, most recently, Internet-of-Things hype. You mean we haven't all become Cloud/IoT/mobile developers?

"However, this isn't your traditional Windows or Linux or Mac OS desktop. Rather, it's a platform to present a Web app. (Also, as VisionMobile points out, today that term really means "laptop.")"
Wow. Sounds like the authors last looked at technology in the '60s.

They have updated features made the system behave better and fixed some bugs. Wow... thanks for sharing. I was starting to think MS was pushing updates that degraded the product
The last two patch Tuesdays have finally seen whoever at MS thought that was a good idea pull its collective head out of its cloaca.

Q: If there were as many intelligent programmers working on open source projects as there are in the NSA this couldn't really be problem, could it?
A: But wouldn't the NSA then just put their man power to work and infiltrate that process to insert cleverly disguised vulnerabilities?
