DiffMerge

DiffMerge is a multi-platform tool for visually comparing and merging files. Its graphical merge screenshot highlights the differences between files, and allows automatic merging and full edit control over the resulting file. The folder comparison shows which files are missing in one of the folders as well as which files among matched pairs is different. Kindly suggested by whyiseverynameinuse.

SurgicalStr1ke shares a harmless prank to help a colleague understand why it's a bad idea to leave their computer screen unlocked: "[S]creenshot of the desktop, set as wallpaper, hide icons. I did this in college in 2003 and it still gives me a small chuckle now." And greenwood93 suggests, "Fake windows updates are fun, a user who left their laptop open got to something like 600% one day; don't think they got much work done but at least their workstation was a lot more secure going forward - https://fakeupdate.net/".
