The Windows 11 "taskbar" is disgusting. It should be at the left of the screen, with real icons, with text, progress, etc. They downgraded my developer PC to a bloody iPhone.

Go to settings, personalization, taskbar, taskbar behavior, taskbar alignment.
|

That moves icons inside the taskbar, the taskbar itself remains at the bottom (or top). I want it left of screen.
I tried everything, including all the hacks I could find editing the registry.

Understood. I used to do that, but got crowded on a laptop. I'll do some research.

Windows folks say it is not available for Win 11 yet!
3rd party software might bring earlier.
This you may already know.

Thanks.
I'll try and be patient...

I didnβt think that a technical term would actually be considered an English word.
Adhesive? Yes.
Glue? Yes.
But this word? Though I did get it.

I used to work with this chemical in my Mechanical Engineering lab more than 25 years ago, and didn't think it could be a common English word.

4 again - not an easy one (until there was only one word I could think of that fitted the results of third guess)!

I got the two vowels on the first go but in the wrong place 3 times, by that stage I could eliminate 10 letters and I brute forced it.

So I've finally decided to give it a try...
Entered all six five-letter words I could come up with, but unfortunately the answer was a word I've never even heard of (and apparently it's the same in Dutch)
This is also why I don't enter the CCC.

I got the beast of a widget - the Lilygo T5 4.7" working with GFX.
Man this thing is hard to code for. I actually have to use both cores of the CPU to update the display due to having to transfer from the frame buffer to DMA capable RAM as I'm feeding the display over I2S.
This is mainly because the e-paper panel does not have a display controller. To save money, the MCU is the display controller. The panel is wired directly to the MCU via like 14 pins and driven with I2S. It is very finicky, and timing sensitive. I thought the RA8875 was bad, but it's positively well behaved compared to this.
I spent most of my morning fighting bootloops, some without any error messages.

I wondered the attraction to epaper as display. Did some research. I get it. Good job.
Might make some money.

Coffee is quite hot
Spilled some coffee in my lap

Sorry I laughed but what can I say? That was funny.

Was this at a McDonalds drive in?

You mean, in keeping with the 5-7-5 Haiku rule:
Sorry about that
I hope it's not McDonald's
You can sue them too.
