Welcome to the Power Users community on Codidact!

Power Users is a Q&A site for questions about the usage of computer software and hardware. We are still a small site and would like to grow, so please consider joining our community. We are looking forward to your questions and answers; they are the building blocks of a repository of knowledge we are building together.

Answer A: Should we use more specific version tags for software?
This is one of the use cases that motivated tag hierarchies. If we make `windows-10-21h1` a child of `windows-10`, then anybody searching for `windows-10` will also see the questions from child tags by default. (You can restrict it to show only the parent tag and not children if you want, though I'...

Comment Post #281794 @Istiak‭ yes, if it's on-topic where you ask it, go ahead. You might need to adjust the content for the community where you're asking it (I say that generally; I haven't reviewed this question with that in mind).

Answer A: on-topic question in this site
A starting point is the proposal. I'm going to quote from the question and from this answer. Again, these are starting points. Our current short description: > Power User Codidact is a community where computer enthusiasts (power users) ask and answer questions about software and hardware usag...

Comment Post #281819 Context is important. There are legitimate reasons to use WireShark in your *own* test lab for debugging, but using it on someone *else's* machines/network would be a problem. If you're asking about a sketchy tool, I think it'd be wise to be very explicit about how you're using it.

Comment Post #281788 @Alexei the wifi is (for reasons I don't yet understand) slow and spotty, despite not being far from the router. Mostly it's fine, but I got tired of video freezing during calls so I eventually ran ethernet.

Comment Post #281716 Thanks Moshi. Since we don't have any answers yet anyway, how about adding them to the question? Then if people want to respond to specific parts they can use answers for that. Sound good?

Comment Post #281716 Could somebody propose some high-level guidelines for questions in such a category? We need questions to capture core requirements and not be too subjective. This wouldn't be the first category (or whole community) built around recommendations; does somebody have some proposed language to start wit...

Question How do I debug this problem with a laptop sometimes not seeing some dock connections?
I have an HP ZBook laptop running Windows 10. This is a work machine with a corporate-controlled OS image, but I have some admin rights on the machine.[^1] The machine was issued to me about 20 months ago and the Windows specific version is 1703. I use this laptop with an HP docking station (als...

Comment Post #281751 Could you please slow down? It's better to ask a few questions well than a bunch that are missing critical information. There's plenty of time to ask more. Thanks!

Comment Post #281751 I don't understand the question. You have one-column text; what are you trying to do with footnotes?
