  • Windows Weekly 853: Ten Outta Ten for the 404!

    On this episode, Leo, Paul, and Richard discuss the big release of Windows 11 23H2, productivity in Macs vs PCs, Microsoft 365 Copilot arriving, changes in the Xbox and marketing divisions, iFixit support for Surface repair, and American rye whiskeys.

    23H2

  • Surprise! Microsoft delivers the Windows 11 23H2 Update, which upgrades your Windows 11 version 22H2-based PC to version 23H2, much sooner than expected.
  • Technically, Microsoft NEVER delivered the so-called "Fall Update," since it was only made available in preview form (twice, for some reason). So 23H2 is actually the first public release of those 150+ new features.
  • The Windows 11 Media Creation Tool still installs 22H2. Because Microsoft. Workaround: Use the Windows 11 Installation Assistant. Which hilariously requires you to install the PC Health Check app.
  • We need to discuss Microsoft Teams in Windows 11. And then literally never discuss it again.
  • Microsoft is killing the Windows Insider MVP program. What exactly did it even mean to be an "MVP" in the Insider program?
  • Dev: From last Friday, adds one new feature, a "Recently added" folder (for apps) in Start (in Recommended)
  • Beta, from last Thursday: Two new features (gradual rollout): System components in Settings, Game Bar rebranding. Plus fixes.
  • Windows 11 now has 26 percent usage share vs. 69 percent for Windows 10.

    • Whatever happened to Windows 12?

  • There have been overt clues about Windows 12 literally all year, including as recently as last week. But Microsoft has never, not once, uttered this phrase. What's happening?

    • Microsoft 365/AI

  • Today's the day: Microsoft 365 Copilot arrives for commercial customers on E3 or higher.
  • OG Teams is retiring in March.
  • Microsoft Word turned 40 last week.
  • This was the gateway drug that lured Paul into the Microsoft ecosystem. But it's showing it's age. If Microsoft can't get spell- and grammar-checking right in Word, why will AI work?

    • Earnings Learnings

  • Did Azure just make more money than AWS??
  • Intel stumbles but finally sees an end to the PC sales slide.

    • Surface

  • iFixit now sells Surface replacement parts. And it is fascinating to see how much more you can replace/repair in newer models compared to the first "repairable" Surface, Surface Pro 7.

    • Xbox

  • Microsoft reorgs Xbox in the wake of Activision Blizzard acquisition.
  • Chris Capossela is Leaving Microsoft.
  • Paul has a very mysterious announcement to make for our holiday show this year!
  • Xbox October Update arrives with keyboard mapping for Elite Series 2 and Adaptive controllers.
  • There are a lot more titles coming to Xbox Game Pass in early November.
  • Microsoft will now block unofficial controllers on Xbox consoles.
  • Atari acquires Digital Eclipse, the retro game company behind that amazing Karateka interactive documentary.

    • Tips and Picks

  • Tip of the week: Windows 11 Field Guide gets its first 23H2 update
  • App pick of the week: Start11 v2 is here to chase your Start menu nightmares away
  • RunAs Radio this week: Green IT with Mike Halsey

            At its October 'Scary Fast' event, Apple unveiled new MacBook Pro laptops featuring the powerful new M3 family of chips, as well as a refreshed 24-inch iMac desktop with the M3 chip. The M3, M3 Pro, and M3 Max chips offer dramatic leaps in performance and efficiency thanks to a new 3-nanometer manufacturing process. Apple also highlighted new GPU architecture in the M3 chips, enabling advanced graphics capabilities like hardware-accelerated ray tracing.

                    Space wants to kill you every moment you are there. From the harsh vacuum to extreme temperatures to killing radiation, there's no shortage of ways to make your stay in space brief. This Halloween, we discuss the Top Ten (and probably more) scariest moments and places in space. And a TWiS bonus--NASA Deputy Administrator and former astronaut Pam Melroy drops in with her scariest space story! Hold on to your thrusters; it's going to be a wild ride.

                    Headlines:

                  • Pre-Halloween Lunar Eclipse! Partial lunar eclipse on October 28, but you must be in the Eastern Hemisphere to see it. Peak viewing will be in Asia, Australia, and New Zealand.
                  • China launched a new crew to its Tiangong space station on the Shenzhou 17 mission. The three taikonauts will spend 6 months on the station, replacing the outgoing Shenzhou 16 crew.
                  • The OSIRIS-REx asteroid sample capsule remains stuck shut after its return. NASA is still working on safely opening it to access the priceless cargo inside.


                    • Main Topic - Top Space Frights

                  • The harrowing Apollo 11 moon landing in 1969, the first time humans landed on another world, almost ran out of fuel before touching down.
                  • Black holes, with their incomprehensible gravity wells that spaghettify anything that gets too close.
                  • Alexei Leonov's dicey first spacewalk in 1965 where his suit ballooned up and he nearly couldn't get back into the spacecraft.
                  • Gamma ray bursts, the most powerful explosions in the universe, that could strip a planet's atmosphere if pointed the wrong way.
                  • The near-disaster of Gemini 8 in 1966, when Neil Armstrong and Dave Scott had to fire retrorockets, forcing an emergency reentry, to stop the violent tumbling of his spacecraft.
                  • Spooky exoplanet TrES-2b, with its coal-black atmosphere and lava-hot winds.
                  • Surprise guest and NASA Deputy Administrator Pam Melroy's Pick: Her own scary moment on STS-120 in 2007 when a snagged solar array threatened to electrocute spacewalker Scott Parazynski.

                      This week on Tech News Weekly, Jason and Mikah go back in time to the origins of cell phones with an AT&T engineer who helped build the first network, get the inside scoop on Apple's next event from Bloomberg's Mark Gurman, social media trends, and more.

                    • We kick off the show by chatting with Stu Tartarone, a veteran of AT&T who helped develop the first cell phone network and make the first cell phone call back in 1983. They discuss the skepticism around early cell phone market research, the distributed network architecture that enabled cellular technology, and how concepts like pre-dialing numbers were revolutionary at the time.
                    • Mark Gurman of Bloomberg joins to preview Apple's upcoming "Scary Fast" October event. He explains that the name hints at new M3 chips for the MacBook Pro and 24-inch iMac. Mark also shares details on the future of AirPods and AirPods Max.
                    • Mikah analyzes Google's reported plan to block Apple from making inroads in search through lobbying and pushing its own apps. Google pays Apple billions to remain the iPhone's default search, but wants to prevent Apple's Spotlight from becoming competition.
                    • Jason covers the shutdown of Twitter alternative T2, renamed Pebble. It never gained traction despite its familiar format and focus on safety. Social media platforms are struggling to retain users divided across multiple networks.
