This is especially true when I am actually a paying customer for the product. May be I should be given the controls to filter based on my own tolerance.
The Windows Master Control Panel shortcut, labeled All Tasks and also called Windows God Mode by bloggers and All Tasks folder by at least one Microsoft developer, is a shortcut to access various control settings in Windows Vista and later operating systems, including Windows 10. By creating a folder with a certain name, users have access to all of the operating system's control panels from within a single folder.
The shortcut is implemented by creating a folder with the extension .{ED7BA470-8E54-465E-825C-99712043E01C}. GodMode was the original folder name used when the feature was publicised, but any name can be used.
Many of the settings aren't available on the new settings pages. You go to the settings for network, then click additional settings and it opens the old settings menu where you can find what you want.
It's terrible.
At least they finally put a screen brightness slider on the notification center.
BBM was different since the PIN was baked into the device so it as more seamless than even using your phone number.
The problem was when you change your device you can't migrate your PIN so I think it contributed to decline to usage as people moved to other BB devices or iOS/Android

Don't forget about Comdex! I have never been to any of these trade shows but it was always cool to read about the new stuff that's coming out during Comdex/CeBIT on Anandtech.
Apple services are also not very good outside of Apple's platform:
Apple Music - Only major service which requires you to install iTunes to play with all kinds of funky issues. (ex: try to play an Apple music video fullscreen on a multi-screen system and all other screens goes to BLANK, I mean seriously??)
Apple Maps - Not available on non Apple devices
iCloud - You only pay for this when you are heavily invested on iOS ecosystem.
Apple services works best on Apple products today; the real question is whether the price increase just forces your average consumers to buy/keep used/older products or they would switch to alternatives.
I find that the higher you climb in the corporate ladder the less actual work hours I have because my calendar is filled with meetings and the remaining hours are scattered everywhere throughout the day.
Nowadays, I am just trying to get my developers productive by trying to my best to give them uninterrupted blocks of work either in morning or afternoon but it's not easy.

It's totally insane that you have to do this. We have to try to make people DESPITE the workplace instead of setting it up in way that people can perform at their best.
Autoplay video that takes up almost my whole screen with full sound blasting, the video itself contains the cliff note of an article that has less than 500 words.
Yes, this is what I meant (and I have it switched on) although reading my comment back I can see how it could be interpreted as me wishing for this capability.
