Another reason why piracy is justified. You’re pandering to corporations and lining the wallets of rich douches like Kotick if you’re paying for video games. ^♪
Microsoft has published a new blog post which details how Windows 11 will be made compliant with the Digital Markets Act (DMA) in the European Economic Area (EEA.)
To be compliant, Microsoft has made several changes to the OS, which now allows users to choose between providers and uninstall most in-box apps.
The company describes these changes as specific to Windows 11 PCs in the EEA, so it’s unclear if users outside this area will be able to utilize these functions.
These changes will rollout in preview on Windows 11 in the Insider Beta Channel in the coming weeks, and will become generally available early next year.
The EEA is an economic and political union that spans 27 countries in the European and surrounding area.
In the case of Microsoft, this means not forcing users to use Edge or Bing, and ensuring the OS is interoperable with other services where necessary.

The article shows a low- and high-powered version of the qualcomm chips - will users of these chips be able to change the power profile of these chips themselves, or will they be locked in before they are sold?
I’m still on the Go 1 waiting for a 512gb version ;-). It’s probably not what you want as a daily driver. For me it’s something I use in meetings and on airplanes when I travel. For that it’s perfect.
That’s mostly what I used my pro 7 for, but even that it struggled with. With nothing else running doing RDP I get 2-3 hours of battery life which is just awful. And if I try to do widi or just about anything at all on the screen I get closer to an hour of battery life until the throttling sets in and it’s unusable. Thank god the pro 8 added a fan for all models.
Battery life is much better on the go I think. Even on my old model, if I turn off wifi and turn down the brightness I can take notes all day. On full brightness with no Wi-Fi I can watch videos for like 4-6 hours on the plane. But when I have Wi-Fi or LTE enabled, it’s probably only 3 hours. I’m sure a new one would improve that by 50% or so. But you don’t want to have more than 2-3 apps open at a time, and you wanna use Firefox instead of Chrome.
Embracing the sustainable… sounds good Tablets especially have no reason to not be easy to take apart they shouldn’t be a device consumers expect high IPX ratings for and their tasks can make them viable for a long time. I just went from 0-2 iPads a 2 and a first gen air, the air has a dodgy battery and the ifixit guide has about 80 steps! But both function fine in 2023 apart from the by design obsolescence.
If you haven’t been seeing the steady stream of news coming out of the Qualcomm Snapdragon Summit taking place in Hawaii, it’s time to catch up.
Breaking news already hit with the announcement of Qualcomm’s Snapdragon X Elite platform that looks to outperform both Mac and Intel, as well as the popular video editing app Davinci’s Resolve coming to ARM.
After the introduction, George Zhao took the stage and talked through several of their upcoming projects, but the presentation finished with the exciting news that HONOR is developing an ARM PC using the newly announced Snapdragon X Elite platform.
The presentation promises that the new PC will have incredible performance, on-device AI, and multi-device connectivity and will be lightweight and slim.
This announcement will likely be the first of many companies as the promise of the power and performance of the new Snapdragon platform entices them to develop new ARM PCs.
George Zhao’s comments on collaboration were well-timed as the tech industry gets increasingly competitive, and companies like Qualcomm and HONOR are working together to bring great consumer products to market.
