  Windows system utilities to maximize productivity

  Project mention: FN lock | reddit.com/r/AsusROGZephyrusDuo15 | 2021-02-23

  I had wondered this too; turns out you can reprogram/remap some of the keys if you download Microsofts' PowerToys, which has a key-remapping feature (download here: https://github.com/microsoft/PowerToys).

  Project mention: Referencing the parent of $_ | reddit.com/r/PowerShell | 2021-02-19

  This is a bug caused by the current implementation of Select-Object, which adds Note Properties to the original objects specified by -ExpandProperty, instead of creating new objects with the requested set of properties.

  A modern, lightweight text editor with a minimalist design.

  Project mention: (Tuesday Talks) What do you use? | reddit.com/r/GWABackstage | 2021-01-27

  There's also Notepads which looks prettier than Notepad++, but has some minor analytics built-in, but is not tracking any "user privacy related info" and is not "sending any of your typing or files over" to the developer and since the software is open source that can be verified by anyone. Since it's a Microsoft Store app it will have some basic diagnostic info sent to Microsoft, but that can supposedly be disabled in the global Windows settings.

  FNA - Accuracy-focused XNA4 reimplementation for open platforms

  Project mention: Why do indie games support linux natively more often than AAA games? | reddit.com/r/linux_gaming | 2021-01-07

  Also XNA even though no longer developed, is very popular for 2D games with indie developers. There were multiple efforts (and forks) to re-implement it and make available on multiple platforms on top of mono. Pinnacle of that effort is FNA which is open-source and support at least GNU/Linux, macOS, Windows, Nintendo Switch, Xbox One, iOS, tvOS and Google Stadia. You can find a long list of games using it here. This makes porting fairly easy and cheap.
