I am new to Win 10 and I simply hate the design of the "Schedule my Updates for Later" dialog/application/panel.
It would work well as a simple dialog with the nice time control and two buttons: "Schedule it", "Remind me later/Cancel".
Instead they have a slider thingy and instructions on the page that you actually have to read to understand how to use what could have been a simple popup dialog.
The old Microsoft used to be CUA compliant everywhere. Now they are trying to make Win10 look like a phone UI.
Bring back CUA!

Probably designed by a cousin of the guy who designed the hospital laboratory information system screens that now require lots of page flips to do routine work because the others were "too busy" ... skilled knowledge workers like busy screens, naive ones not so much.

No one else tried to find what site he was talking about?
Both Fedex and UPS seem like fine
Without the reference, first thought sounds more like UI issue not UX (im one of the a-holes that try to seperate the two - look of interface vs how user engages with interface)
The abundance of white space might be a part of the transition away from the skeuomorphic designs. It takes time to figureout a balance and I think there is still wiplash effects of this change starting 10 years ago.
A comment made when I was doing my degree sticks with me. You got this big screen (might have been 800x600 or 1024×768) and all your doing is typing text. There is no need to have the application full screen.
So urks me when some devs have a notepad fullscreen while switching to a browser of some other application.

Am I the only one who misses skeuomorphic designs? I much preferred iOS before version 7. Jonathan Ivey is not on my Christmas card list...

Agree. Hate, hate, hate, the "magic scrollbars" which only appear if you happen to move the cursor to the right place.
Also, if you want me to input something, make it obvious where. Far too many sites where input area isn't set off from the background (or is something like light gray text on a white background).
First rule of internet commerce: don't make it difficult for your users to give you money.

yeah, teenagers using psychedelic stuff in the weekend, then hit the commit button monday at work after quickly adjust the ui to match what they have experienced in their trip. you are the problem ! navigate to their site only when having some dmt stuff in your blood as well, and you'll be just fine

I absolutely hate modern web page design. It works on a small screen for fingers but is 100% garbage on a laptop or desktop screen.

With you on this one. Hard to tell whether it is part of a "look, I'm clever" feature or a "look, I'm dumb" one.

It's just a matter of being on the safe side.

Best critic is the one who wants to see you on a white horse.
I hate horses. Sh*t on the street, without their owners having to clean up with a plastic bag.

Or you were married for far too long and are a glutton for punishment.

This is scary on so many levels.
I'd rather be phishing!
|
|
|
|
|
This goes way beyond my typical make-him-waste-his-time responses, but the scammer still gets no sympathy from me. Or am I misunderstanding who you're scared for here...?

The fact that this person hacked into a CCTV and was able to cross reference audio and video from two systems.
I'd rather be phishing!
|
|
|
|
|
Are you worried more about these scammers's CCTV and audio systems being accessed, or the database they also surely must have, containing the details of the people they've suckered...including their credit card info...?
I suspect they're not too big on data security one way or another.

Perhaps Caveat Decipitur given the circumstance?
(n.b. I have no latin beyond Caveat Emptor and Mea Culpa, so Decipitur is probably quite incorrect)
