@davidfowl @ibuildthecloud This is hopeful. I'll be impressed when the installer fits on a DVD again; install Windows on a HDD, let the system sit, and the HDD actually spins down like it always did before; and when Windows fresh boots with under 1.5GB RAM used, 60 processes, 900 threads, and 30k handles.

The Windows team is deeply aware of the current reality and perception and are listening. @ibuildthecloud are you gonna come back 😬?

@TeaAndDates This is hopeful. I'll be impressed when the installer fits on a DVD again; install Windows on a HDD, let the system sit, and the HDD actually spins down like it always did before; and when Windows fresh boots with under 1.5GB RAM used, 60 processes, 900 threads, and 30k handles.

Since (re)joining Windows a few years ago, I've never seen my team as excited about an initiative as they are about this. Can't wait to get these improvements and fixes to Start, Taskbar, File Explorer, and more out to customers!

Working on this is part of my new job! Even more to come blogs.windows.com/windows-inside…

We're turning Insider feedback into real improvements across Windows 11. More focus on performance, reliability, and being thoughtful about where Copilot shows up, so the experience feels simpler, not busier. Appreciate everyone who is giving feedback to make our products the best they can be.

We do listen, you know 😊 Looking forward to what's to come! Please continue sharing feedback 💙

The team and I have spent the past several months analyzing feedback from the community. What came through was the voice of people who care deeply about Windows and want it to be better. Read this blog post to learn more about what we're doing in response as we look to raise the bar on Windows 11 quality. Please keep the feedback coming, to help us shape the future of Windows together. blogs.windows.com/windows-inside…

@The_x_Truth @WindowsLatest LOL, I have a Windows 11 Pro machine that has forcefully restarted itself 14 times in the last 48 hours while in use, apparently trying to install "2026-03 Security Update (KB5079473) (26200.8037)"—which is already installed according to winver!

@WindowsLatest Windows Pro doesn't restart while you're using it.

BREAKING: Microsoft confirms a major Windows 11 release that focuses on performance, reliability, bug fixes, and bids goodbye to forced Windows Updates + unwanted Copilot integration! Microsoft is seriously and sincerely improving Windows 11 by listening to top feedbacks: - Movable taskbar confirmed. - You can now pause Windows Updates for as long as you want. No forced shutdown/reboot when updates paused. - Windows Update is moving PCs to a single monthly reboot. - Faster File Explorer, reduced memory footprint, faster Windows Search, better OS performance, and other bug fixes - Scaling back Copilot in Windows 11, start with apps like Notepad - Moving Windows core experience to WinUI (native framework), dropping WebView/React in features like the Start menu - Fewer notifications (disruptions), improved drivers, and more. How do you want Microsoft to improve Windows 11? 👇

@veizau I am totally sympathetic to the cause and believe that women need to be held accountable same as men, but this lawsuit is ridiculous. She asked and he gave verbal consent—it'll be handled just like sex or BDSM fetishes—it wasn't murder! Any wise judge will dismiss with prejudice.

Clavicular has filed a multi-million-dollar lawsuit against a random girl who slapped him at the club. 😳👀 “Nah, she’s not getting away with this. I’ll spend every penny if I have to this isn’t over. I’m making an example out of this foid to warn others not to do the same.’’

@BleepinComputer Lovely! Glad I don't use the Microsoft Account crap.

Microsoft says the March Windows 11 update breaks sign-ins with Microsoft accounts across multiple Microsoft apps, including Teams and OneDrive. bleepingcomputer.com/news/microsoft…

@REDWRITER @XMoney Does X Money have its own SWIFT code for receiving international wires? (So just SWIFT and account number, like with Capital One.) Or do you have to use another bank's SWIFT code and specify X Money as the beneficiary and you as "further credit"? (like with Ally or Discover)

X MONEY: INCOMING WIRE TRANSFER TEST Linking bank accounts for ACH direct deposits works great, but I wanted to test what it would look like if I received a large external wire deposit. I went to the bank and initiated a wire transfer to my @XMoney account using the checking and routing numbers. The money settled into my account in less than 24 hours. When asked what the transfer was for, I simply said, "To earn 6% APY." The teller thought I was joking.

@raunak_yadush That's just the tip of the iceberg...

Windows 11 is sending your gameplay data to Microsoft in real time. It's called "Connected User Experiences and Telemetry" and it uses your CPU WHILE you game stealing FPS and resources from your game. Services.msc → find "Connected User Experiences and Telemetry" → Disable

@T3chFalcon Preposterous! But that's where this foolishness goes... Kids already use fake IDs to get into bars and purchase restricted items—nobody's stopping a kid from using someone else's profile/machine to access adult apps.

Submit government ID proving you're old enough to... run MemTest86💀

@nicksortor Why do we need this? Don't we already have a law almost a century old already on the books for this?

🚨 BREAKING: Delilah’s Law, named after the little girl Trump introduced at SOTU injured by a foreign truck driver, has PASSED out of committee If it becomes law, truck drivers will be LEGALLY REQUIRED to know English THIS NEEDS TO BE PASSED ASAP!

@SimpPolice911 Yes—except there would be clear context for all the attendees. And I'd call the police on her and press charges for the domestic violence too.

He caught her cheating and waited till the wedding day to do this… is he valid for this??? Would you do this? 😮🫣

@silly_lilah @allisx86 CMOS battery too low, that'll do it!

@allisx86 lmao I saw a bios or splash at the Towson Town Mall just out of my city, lemme find the photo

@ID_AA_Carmack Vorbis? They should be using Opus—much better quality, and an Internet standard format.

When you stream Spotify to Bluetooth speakers or headphones, the audio comes over the network lossily compressed with Vorbis or AAC codecs, is then decoded on your device to 48 Khz raw samples, then the Bluetooth stack lossily re-compresses it with SBC or AAC codecs before sending it over the airwaves to the speakers. I don’t have “golden ears” to pick apart audio quality like I can with, say, missing gamma correction on texture filtering, but that still hurts my system optimization soul. It is likely over-optimization, but It would be cleaner if there were a way to send bluetooth-ready, compressed audio directly.

@LeftistsRShit @ClownWorld Actually, 15A @ 120V around the clock for 30 days will put $233 on your electric bill if your rate is $0.18/kWh...

@ClownWorld Not going to be running much off that cord. 110v/15a isn’t a lot of power. Still, hope he nailed the sucker.

Homeowner discovers his neighbor secretly running an extension cord to his house to steal electricity.

@jzux You left out a few crucial words: Empathy for *those who destroy* human life.

so it turns out the “woke mind virus” was empathy for human life

@DrPhil The media is feeding and weaponizing suicidal empathy. You need to embrace the term and start talking about it publicly!

Dear legacy media, tell us the damn truth about Iran or stop calling it journalism.
