Microsoft says that Windows 10 and Windows Server users will be blocked from installing incorrectly formatted third-party drivers after deploying this month's cumulative updates. That should help with the first-party drivers as well
I'm really surprised it took them this long.

It may not be an easy task, but if they just made the members of the board responsible monetarily and criminally, deaths would probably go WAY DOWN real fast. (So would innovation.) There is a high chance their push to product at the cheapest of all costs is the underlying culprit.

Open source's main patent protection organization is expanding its reach far beyond just Linux. Great news for all of us that are ExFAT (and currently FAT)
I wonder what it took to get the Microsoft legal department to stand this far down?

That drawer full of bad headphones and extra power adapters for your phone won’t get any more cluttered if you decide to pick up a new iPhone 12. You were charging it wrong anyway

Why give it in the same box when you can charge some $$$ more for them later?

Yup. Doing is now, when they're pushing wireless charging mats is perfect timing. Every iFan is going to need several new chargers, which is the perfect time to stop giving them away for free and start charging for them. 
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, weighing all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

A coalition of software industry leaders today is releasing a BizOps Manifesto, a framework that aims to finally address the need for the business and IT sides of an enterprise to work toward common outcomes that drive the bottom line. Because until now, IT has been completely separate from the business
And we're a little closer to OpsOps.

It is a near-final release of .NET 5.0, and the last of two RCs before the official release in November. RC2 is a “go live” release; you are supported using it in production. Warmer.... warmer... you're getting red hot
