So my wife is out looking for patterns - she's a crafter - and has managed to pick up a rather insidious ad dohicky that pops up, claims the end of the world, you need McAffeee (really?), etc. Call this number. In doing my research, I came across this gem on the Microsoft "community" forums:
"Edge can now run in the background due to a new feature, you may wish to turn this off."
Are you elephanting kidding me? Turning this off fixed the issue, but wow. Microsoft, take Edge and stick it where the sun don't shine.

I've learned more. More info to come. Microsoft blows. 4.5 weeks.

wow, turns out those Microsoft peckerheads have embedded Edge as sort of a default user interface. I've come across postings on support where Edge runs in the background by default. I suspect it is how they push their ad bs to the desktop. So, if your desktop gets hijacked, and you are getting popups demanding you install mcafee, it's because Edge is running in the background. Another example of Microsoft nonsense about security and what not.
I run professional and I f'ing refuse to create a network account so that "all of my devices" are in sync. Hell no. Windows 11 Home makes it hard to do this, Pro is a little better. This weekend's task is to switch SWMBO back to a local account and replace office 365. Doing a quick google search for "how to switch a windows 11 home laptop back to local login" the second result is "Change from a local account to a Microsoft account"
Consider this a PSA. By the end of the summer, I'll be all unix unless someone tosses me a basket full of cash.

Similar to what i mentioned a few days ago.
I get this message 'Edge is using your webcam', this is with Egde not even being opened.
Makes me feel whether Edge is sending these webcam images to some server, for further use as image dataset for AI.

Is it just me or is it time developers stopped adding those annoying GOT IT? popups everywhere. You're trying to use an app you've used a million times. You open it up, start diving in and..
Did you know you can change
the colour of the menu bar
to a slightly lighter shade of
purple!?!
[ Got it ]
And you can't do anything until you click "Got it". And then another pops up telling you that you can announce you can connect your spreadsheets to your social media account, and you can get notifications you don't want. And that they changed the menus to third-person plural.
I don't care, and you're stopping me from using the thing I'm paying for. And none of this is even vaguely important enough to stop me from doing anything until I acknowledge you.
Has anyone implemented these types of announcements, and if so, has there been a case where, in all honesty, it's important enough that someone acknowledges before they can do anything?
cheers

I'm working on a react project that has a component and related components named filter, filter group, etc. They need a complete overhaul and I was told to create a new set of components so that we can slowly implement the new one. Now I'm having the mental dilemma of figuring out what to name these new components. I flat out refuse "NewFilter" or "FilterNew" because you know it's going to have another iteration one day..."Filter2" seems blah. Does everyone else fret over naming things? What would you pick?

Ha ha...I was looking at thesaurus entries. I was almost considering "sieve" just to be fun.

Ha ha.. looks like "CharlesFilter" wins?
That site is pretty sweet. Might actually use it once I put together more options.

I am working on a image file viewer thingy using Windows Imaging Components. I was going to call it WinCodecBitmap, but after spinning the wheel I think I will call it Hanna.
Thanks
Within you lies the power for good - Use it!

I put together the two suggestions (M-W thesaurus and wheel of names). I pasted the list of related words in wheel of names and a clairvoyant spin produced the right answer: WASH. Like in: if you don't know what to name it, it's a wash; any name is as good as the next.

Perfect task for Copilot.
I gave it the entire text of your original post and here is Copilot's response.
Copilot said: Ah, the eternal struggle of naming things in software development! It’s a challenge that many of us face, and it’s perfectly normal to fret over it. After all, a good name can make your code more readable and maintainable, while a poor one can lead to confusion and frustration.
Here are a few strategies you might consider when naming your new components:
Descriptive Names:
Aim for names that clearly convey the purpose or functionality of the component. For example:
FilterPanel: If your component handles filtering functionality.
FilterOptions: If it’s related to filter configuration.
FilterSelector: If it allows users to choose from different filters.
Think about what the component does and choose a name that reflects that.
Domain-Specific Terms:
Consider using terms from your project’s domain or industry. For instance:
TagCloud: If your component deals with tags.
SearchCriteria: If it represents search filters.
SortDropdown: If it handles sorting options.
Using domain-specific terms can make your code more intuitive for other developers.
Avoid Generic Names:
As you mentioned, names like “NewFilter” or “Filter2” aren’t very helpful. They lack specificity and might cause confusion down the road.
Instead, opt for more meaningful names that provide context.
Be Consistent:
If your existing components follow a certain naming convention (e.g., “FilterGroup”), try to maintain consistency.
Consistency makes it easier for developers to understand the relationships between components.
Avoid Abbreviations:
While abbreviations can save keystrokes, they often sacrifice clarity.
For example, prefer FilterConfiguration over FilterConfig.
Think About Future Iterations:
You’re right to consider future-proofing your names. Think about how the component might evolve.
Instead of “Filter2,” consider something like “AdvancedFilter” or “EnhancedFilter.”
Remember that there’s no one-size-fits-all answer, and different projects and teams have varying conventions. Ultimately, choose names that make sense in your specific context. And don’t worry—you’re not alone in this naming struggle! 😄

Looking for recommendations here...
I'm using Oracle Box VM. When I RDC into it, strange things happen.
First, Copy & Paste no longer works. Not Host to Remote, I'm talking about Copy & Paste INSIDE RDC. Select text, copy -> paste - Nothing.
It's also REALLY slow. I've tried various things like restarting rdpclip.exe. Still can't copy & paste.
If I work through the OracleBox window, everything is fine - except I can only use one monitor. Anyone know of a decent replacement that allows dual monitors?
NOTE: I don't want to TOGGLE between monitors, I want full use of both monitors.
Thanks
In theory, theory and practice are the same. But in practice, they never are.”
If it's not broken, fix it until it is.
Everything makes sense in someone's mind.
