The Task Manager in Windows always had an “Applications” tab and a “Processes” tab, going back to Windows 98 at least. “Programs” was always too broad and restricted to being colloquial; the specific word was either application or executable.
What’s worth ranting about is whether people have stopped understanding “App” as short for something.
Rejoice, your paint guns are now all howitzers!
Thankfully the dictionaries get a little more specific. I do want an artillery capable paint gun though, that sounds rad
I presented the above as a joke and I had faith that the definition of a howitzer wasn’t that vague to begin with.
gottem 😎
I used to think howitzer was a specific model or even brand of artillery piece, like the Gucci bag of artillery.
