The word "standard" has a very broad set of definitions that covers many uses beyond technical standards. Also, "de facto standard" is a common phrase with its own meaning, which I used correctly. -

Just want to throw in my two current favorite streaming shows both of which have brilliant theme songs. Added bonus. Another fun new show is called Duster starring Josh Hollaway. It's opening theme is brilliant. -

Depends on where you are from. I know in the US they love their Messages because ISPs there were blocking mobile data for certain apps, especially messengers and voip apps because they wanted to sell bundles of call minutes and sms messages (the reason why Skype was not so popular in US as Microsoft expected - at the very beginning it just couldn't run on mobile data at all in US). Here in EU I don't know anyone using Messages because we moved to better messenger apps long ago. I've used a Java version of ICQ and Google Talk on my dumb phone before the iPhone was a thing. -

Do we really need to bring more attention to yt-dlp? I'm sure that project will be pulled if it becomes super common knowledge. -

Windows Photos gets AI-powered light controls and improved search by Taras Buria Microsoft is rolling out a new update for the Windows Photos app in the Insider program. Today's release introduces two new AI-powered features: light controls (Relight) and search with natural language (initially announced in early May 2025). With Relight, users can set up to three light sources on a single image and customize their light color, focus point, brightness, and intensity. The app has built-in presets for quick light adjustments and styles, which you can apply with a single click. Microsoft says that besides styling your photos, Relight can correct poor lighting on images to make them look better. As of right now, Relight is only available to Windows Insiders with Snapdragon-powered Copilot+ PCs. However, Microsoft promises to release the feature to users with AMD and Intel-based Copilot+ PCs in the coming months. Next is improved search, which is now semantically based, allowing you to find photos using natural language. For example, you can search for "sunset at the beach" or "family outdoor fun." Windows Photos will use AI to understand your request and find photos that best fit it. Note that improved search only works with locally stored and indexed pictures in the Pictures library. More information about indexing and supported languages is available in the official documentation. Finally, two Windows Photos features are now available to Entra ID users: Restyle Image and Image Creator. Previously, these features were only available to customers with standard Microsoft Accounts. For reference, Restyle Image lets you use AI to reimagine your photo in a different style, while Image Creator enables you to generate pictures using text prompts. The new features for the Windows Photos app are now rolling out in all Insider channels in version 2025.11060.5006.0 and higher. You can read more about them in the official announcement post.

What is a dot operator in Python? And how powerful is it!?
well - if we say that almost everything in Python is an object. And furthermore - every object has certain attributes and methods.
In python - the typical connection between the attributes or the methods with the object is let us say named or we an also say indicated _with_ - or let us say _by_ a “dot” (”.”) written between the attributes or the methods and the object. Let us illustrate this formal behavior in python with a little example; if we look at lessie the dog. This dog - we can say does alot of things:
during the whole live of a typical dog we ca admit that - he runs, walks, bites, sleeps and lots of other thigns more.
Here’s how we can spell out the above mentioend behaviour in a so called object-oriented style - well we might write this:
Lessie = Dog()
Lessie.walks()
Lessie.wows()
Lessie.runs()
Lessie.bites()
Lessie.eats()
and so forth and so forth and so forth and so forth
Well besides the above mentioened things - we can say that Lessie has additionaly and furthermore lets say different attributes and different qualities.
the question is: can objects have even more objects that belong to them,
Lessie.head.hair()
Lessie.head.hair.color = "browm";
Lessie.head.mouth.theeth.length.()
quesiton: can objects have even other objects that also do belong to them - in other words - do they are able to have a connection to the object with their own methods or attributes:
