I dont know how it really works, if HW vendors have information about significant changes in Windows, so they can prepare for it,

Hardware OEM and software devs which are Microsoft’s partners get documentation and beta test new features, changes…

You could ask Elon Musk he has the answer.

You don’t need to be a billionaire to win vs Microsoft.
Microsoft lost in courts around the world for installing Windows 10 sneakily on Windows 7 PCs or after users bought PCs with Windows 10 preinstalled and installed Linux.
Microsoft was ordered to pay damages or refund the cost of Windows 10 (~$50).

Windows 11 is not RTM

I think that the 22000.194 Release Preview Channel is close to RTM and even maybe the RTM version.

Winaero Tweaker 1.32

Release Notes

With Winaero Tweaker 1.32 you can now enable the classic (full) context menus on Windows 11. Just turn on the checkbox and restart the Explorer.

I have changed the behavior of the “Enable Ribbon” option for Windows 11. It no longer disables the “Share” command, so it enables the Ribbon UI without side effects.

Finally, I have fixed the “Change system font” option. It should not produce the “square” icon instead of the “:” for the clock in the taskbar. Also, it shouldn’t interfere with the Anki app…

It’s commonly said that lightbulbs were invented decades ago that could last into infinity,

The bulb to light all Ramat Gan (city in Israel).

..On June 28, 1981, the eve of elections to the tenth Knesset, Yaakov Meridor gave an interview to radio networks. He was one of the top candidates on the party list of Likud. He announced that a scientist working with him had invented an improvement in energy production on a chemical basis, with extraordinary efficiency and yield. As an illustration of the nature of the invention, “a global revolution that is yet to be grasped”, he told an interviewer, “It’s as if you took an ordinary household light bulb and, with this lamp, you illuminated the whole city of Ramat Gan.”

In March 1982, while serving as Minister of Economics and Inter-Ministry Coordination, Meridor gave publicity to the invention in a special television broadcast. For a few days he captured the top newspaper headlines. When it was revealed that the inventor might be brought up on charges, the minister was held up to ridicule, and the incident was mockingly recalled for years afterward….

We don’t have R. Daneel Olivaw (yet?) but do one of his alter-egos, Demerzel.

Watched the second episode, disappointed as it deviated completely from the main story.
