I had an app for both my background and lock screen.

The lock screen in Windows 10 shows awesome pictures by default
I guess it's the Bing one, but it's different from the one on my desktop.
So that's twice the fun

|
Bah, I disable the images. Waste of my precious few cycles.

I have a considerable dislike for these over-saturated images.
They're appearing all over the place. In stores, I've seen them selling samsung's latest and greatest TV's all blaring absurdly intense colors.
Acceptable to the consumer due to the effect of retinal damage from cell phone staring?

You just haven't seen the right autumn scenery. With the right amount of sunlight, the area I'm in can look very similar to what you see in that picture. Not exaggerating.

I have taken some richly colored photos, myself. One, of a (no actual sun, though) sunset (with certain props so it just wasn't yet another sunset) has the sky look like impressionist painting (a side effect the focal point being about 20cm away instead of the sky. Some others, now and then.
But nothing like the eyesores that I see posted every which way. The beauty comes from the subtlety. Nature's particularly good at that.

If parades weren't meant to be rained on, then they wouldn't have them outside. I say bring on the downpour!
And if he shows up with one, we can just pretend your one didn't happen

No time for that. At this time he usually is busy to find that guy who has been posting here under his name yesterday.

Many apologies all. Slings and arrows of outrageous fortune etc.
If it's any consolation, the clue I had lined up was so poor that I've already forgotten it!

What to do when leaving the company? Toss a few noisemakers as you exit: Speaking Truth to Power: Reflections on My Career at Microsoft[^]
I have to say that I knew a few people like he mentions. And I’m sure any of them are still there, probably with ‘ Senior’ or ‘principal’ in front of their title.
As many would guess, I also agree with a lot of his points on the Windows team

I not say Microsoft is perfect, but at least they're not as morally bankrupt as companies likes of Farcebook, google, VW etc

One more of the 'don't we all' things where I must say that 'we' don't all do it.
