Why, Microsoft?
If I wanted to use Bing, I'd use Bing.
I'm happy with Google, thanks - so why does the Win10 start menu search always use Bing?
Sorry MS, but you forced me to take drastic measures: Hi there Chrometana[^] - what;s that? you redirect all Bing searches to Google if Chrome is your default browser? A little heavy, but OK...
Bye, bye Bing...
First they ignore my preferences and set their browser as my default, then they try to force me to use their search engine? When Cortana won't even work on my machine because I won't let you have the full rights to all my data? No, MS...I won't.

I'm having difficulty getting to grips with web search results being returned from the start button. Maybe I need to realign my thought processes but start for me is entirely to do with what I have on my computer, not on the web. That's what google is for. You could argue there's a privacy issue right there...
Edge doesn't seem to be any great improvement. I've had a lot of difficulty getting it to die. You click close and it just stays there.

I stopped using it - it's a little faster than Chrome, but it's ugly as an ugly thing from the planet ugly and it's "tools" area takes up too much valuable screen space.
Frankly, I expected better - and I doubt it's speed advantage is going to last too long either...

I don't really mind the results being returned from the start menu - but...in Win7, click the start button, type a command and you got commands. So I do the same on Win10 and press enter...and not only does it take ages, but it starts an internet search if I didn't type it right. Win7 was better in that regard, it did nothing if there was no relevant command.

And a Linux console is even better in this regard...

Indeed. If I search my hard drive for "Hairy Elephant" I may not want big G (or M) to know about it.

DO not search on the web from the start menu search. Who needs Bing anyway ?

Don't get me started again.

An easy one for the weekend
Hint 1: In the old ages one used a pen with it.
Rules for the FOSW ![ ^]
if(this.signature != "")

MessageBox.Show("This is my signature: " + Environment.NewLine + signature);

}

CP seems unusually quiet today, so I'll have a guess of....
Notebook
|
|
|
|
|
|
Just need someone to solve the CCC otherwise it'll be a busy monday 
|
|
|

So we have a winner!
Notebook is correct 
You are up on Monday

if(this.signature != "")
{
MessageBox.Show("This is my signature: " + Environment.NewLine + signature);
}
else
{
MessageBox.Show("404-Signature not found");
}

even though I've done a couple I confess I don't understand these.
Was that ASCII stuff meant to look like something? Or were you just using a simple random substitution cypher?

Last stand includes Lakota but ended in a pack – (7)
Time to do something constructive before the weekend 
|
|
|
|

Time for my beauty sleep ( and boy do I really need it) so I'll add a small hint and respond in the morning to any correct answer. The answer will be obvious when you see it. So a slight rewording for the hint.
His last stand includes Lakota to make a group. (7)
Good night and don't be shy

SEVENTH? From the Seventh Cavalry defeated by the Lakota, Cheyenne, and Arapaho tribes at Little Big Horn?
Just a guess...
