Allows one to modify various Windows 11 features.
This was most notably to get a usable taskbar with full program names, but the feature was added natively to Windows 11 (although often with shorter names)

Entertainment > Games > Borderlands – (2009 game) > (on Wikipedia) I have nothing but positive things to say about this game. Except for the negative things. I haven’t done a proper review, and might bother some time later.
Entertainment > Games > (on Wikipedia) A procedurally generated survival game with shitty graphics, which became popular because it was first-to-market and took advantage of nostalgia. Unfortunately, Minecraft was never completed and the author fucked off with the money to make another game. Even with extraordinary success, the author didn’t make good on promises and the game was never finished. (It would later be “finished” by having a recipe book concept and an “end”; neither of which are any good.) I loved this game, and even bought it twice to support the developer, but because it was Java it would bring a computer to its knees. Being sold out to Microsoft (for their upcoming virtual reality stuff I’d bet) was bafflingly insulting. I would try it again years later, and it hasn’t had basic improvements.
Entertainment > Games > (on Wikipedia) Roam around harassing NPCs and accidentally-clicking in combat. It has some really obvious and fundamental flaws that make it just terrible to cope with. I feel like I have to struggle against its design. The abilities are buckshot across the interface, the inventory is a hot mess, and combat is awkward and unforgiving. The dialog trees are kind of stupid most of the time, and player customization isn’t particularly present, which is strange for a roleplaying game. I can only see that this has appeal because there have been no decent AAA games lately, and their variety is absolute shit.
