Trump just mocked a little girl for being short, and stomped on her ambitions.
Little Girl: “I play volleyball and in the summer I’m trying to get into soccer.”
Trump: “And with your height do you smash the volleyball. Can you get up high? Can you jump high?”
Little Girl: “Not very.”
Trump: “Soccer might be better.”

Microsoft’s distinguished engineer teases that “native apps are back,” as the company plans to build 100% native apps for Windows 11.
Windows 11's biggest problem isn't ads or performance, but the app experience.
Apps like Netflix, WhatsApp, and even Microsoft's own Windows apps are now powered by either WebView2 or PWAs (web app technology).
I don't hate web apps, but they feel slow and not truly part of the operating system. A right-click makes you feel you're browsing Edge, and have options like Inspect Element.
Microsoft has confirmed it'll build 100% native apps for Windows 11, and it's also moving some OS features back to native code.
This includes the Start menu, which is currently powered by React and is now moving to WinUI. The upcoming Agenda view, which was a WebView2-based component, is also moving to native code.
However, the biggest challenge is that Microsoft needs to convince developers to build native apps for Windows.

@Skrillzinho @Xiaomi I got mine replaced. Now on 3.0.302. Don't wanna keep waiting for a fix as no one guarantee that.

@samcswong @Xiaomi Almost certainly a software issue, given that it won't really zoom fiscally or digitally

It seems HyperOS 3.0.301 has broken the camera on my Xiaomi 17 Ultra. Zoom above 3X doesn't work. Can't focus. Worked properly on 18 Apr. Updated on 20 Apr.
Has anyone encountered same issue? #Xiaomi17ultra

Breaking: CEO Satya Nadella admits Microsoft needs to "win back" Windows fans, confirms 1.6 billion monthly active devices
Microsoft CEO Nadella confirmed that the company still cares about consumers and that it will "win back" Windows fans.
Microsoft recently confirmed it'll give users greater control over Windows updates, including the ability to pause updates for as long as you want, and a movable taskbar.
Other features coming to Windows 11 include a faster taskbar, Start menu, ability to resize Start menu and taskbar, faster File Explorer, reduced OS crashes, and dramatically faster performance, especially for gamers.
We're already seeing early bits in the preview builds, so the promises are not just words.

@samcswong @XiaomiSupport Did they tell you anything interesting? I have exactly the same problem, the camera works fine, till the 3.2x, then it is blurry and has weird darker spots on the corners. It happened just after the OS update.

@Xiaomi Updated my Xiaomi 17 Ultra global version to HyperOS 3.0.301 2 days ago. Now found that the camera is not working properly. Zoom above 3X is broken. Can't zoom, can't focus. Tried clear data of camera app, and tried reboot. All didn't help. Is it a bug? #Xiaomi17ultra

I can see more and more people reported camera issues on their Xiaomi 17 Ultra after upgraded to HyperOS 3.0.301, but @Xiaomi still keep silent.
As my first Xiaomi phone and also a flagship model, this is a very bad experience.
