Because most people did not use 3rd party apps and do not care about site′s management. Why move to someplace else if everything works great where you already are.

Keepass2Android supports many cloud options including Nextcloud and OwnCloud so it sync with storage directly. At least with Dropbox it works like a charm.

The Book of Unwritten Tales comes to mind. It's nowhere near as grandiose as any of your described games, but I fondly remember it being a very charming and wholesome experience. If that's the feeling you seek, you might enjoy it.

It should fix system files that are not in expected state (I assume corruption, missing, wrong permissions etc.). Maybe it was more useful in the past, but after trying it couple times around 8 years ago and never seeing any benefit, I have never thought of using it since.

My colleague said it fixed some random issue once or twice after he was out of ideas.

If system is truly messed up, it's often faster and more reliable to just reinstall it, especially if you do not have much custom config.

Based on the article, she might have been hated not just disliked.

She said another employee had asked her: “Are you taking the piss, Karen?” The tribunal heard that this was after Conaghan suggested she had “done all of the hard work” and it was his “turn to do some”.

Any reason why Firefox is not under Browser section?

I would personally also add original KeePass, Notepad++ and ShareX (Maybe also Greenshot). These are Windows only, but great pieces of software.

No need to pretend Marvel movies stopped being money generators. Newest Deadpool & Wolverine generated worldwide 1.3B USD, ranking it 21st top grossing movie of all time. Domestic 633M USD, China 60M USD. It's 7th highest grossing MCU movie.

It was clearly a joke, I agreed with your comment :)

While it sounds ridiculous, there is a reasoning for this even nowadays:

Any periodic activity with a rate faster than one minute incurs the scrutiny of the Windows performance team, because periodic activity prevents the CPU from entering a low-power state. Updating the seconds in the taskbar clock is not essential to the user interface, unlike telling the user where their typing is going to go, or making sure a video plays smoothly. And the recommendation is that inessential periodic timers have a minimum period of one minute, and they should enable timer coalescing to minimize system wake-ups.

Found 1 test that seems to confirm battery life is slightly worse (2%) with seconds enabled. But this is true only when nothing is going on on screen. If you would actually work on PC, I imagine difference would be practically nonexistent.

All that said, I use seconds on my private and work PC. Was pissed when MS initially removed this as an option.

Some people think there is this magical thing called canon. If something is canon and you heavily dislike it, it messes up your enjoyment for whole franchise and you no longer can enjoy previous entries that you grew up with.

I didn't like it. You want to tell me that my opinion differs from majority and most people like this trash? Preposterous.
