There is a #MurphysLaw or something about reading the directions when all else fails. In this case, looking closely at 2 power wiring dongles and realizing one works and is documented both *Upside or Down*. I finally checked why the lights were in different order on the top labels. Turns out, that is correct.

#PetPeeve: I hate that "Music" is one of the standard home folders on desktop computers. I love music, but I want it to be "Audio" -- not all audio is music (plus "audio" pairs better with "video"). When was this default established, in #MacOS X 10.0, #WinNT, earlier? (I think NextStep or BeOS might have had a "Sounds" folder.) Now, seemingly every #desktop uses this default: #Windows, #Mac, #FreeDesktop environments (#GNOME, #KDE), are there any exceptions? Like the #DesktopMetaphor itself, we're stuck with it, even though it chafes.

What UI first distinguished radio buttons from checkboxes with circles/squares?
I really dislike the flat design that has come to overpower everything since 2013. I prefer the old iphone Skeuomorphism, pixel art icons from the '90s (e.g. #BeOS), and the new #neuomorphism (but with more contrast than shown in the pic). But flat design, no, thank you.
Google has just launched #Android16 for supported Pixel devices, packed with new APIs and updates!
Some changes will impact existing apps, and require developers to update their code.

Something I really hate about the UI on my phone, most of the setting shortcuts are toggle something on/off. Not so the notifications mode icon, which toggles from Noise to Vibrate to MUTE and /then/ back to noise.
This has caught me out repeatedly and added a not insignificant amount of stress to not only my life but people trying to get hold of me.
Okay which idiot at Microsoft thought it's a good idea, to show me the game card, if I klick on the game in my Dashboard, I want to play, that is already installed on my Xbox and how do I deactivate that shit?!
I want to play and not study the statistics of the game or get information and adds for that game!
Edit found it.
Press the Xbox button logo, overlay menu pops up. Go right to your profile picture.
Move down to settings.
Go to general followed by personalization.
Guides & apps.
On the right side choose from which sources game hub will open automatically.
If you deactivate all the marks it won't open automatically.
The whole point of this shit update seem to be to drive sales because you can see on one look if you have the DLCs and everything other shit. How long you have played ball bla bla.
Next step will probably be full advertisement before playing.
