This is the thing with my CPU. It has TPM, it’s enabled, and the upgrade tool says that’s fine. The installer doesn’t make it clear what the issue is, it’s like: Congrats, your CPU satisfies these three bullet points, but no, you still can’t have Win 11.

I have a rig with Windows 10, and haven’t upgraded because… Microsoft arbitrarily say my CPU is unsupported, even though it meets all the criteria.

I had the opposite problem with Windows 11.

My typical way of shutting down my machine was Alt-D, Show Desktop, then Alt-F4, which brings up a shutdown menu.

For whatever reason in Win 11, they made this menu unable to trigger updates. So for the first several months of my Win 11 install it was quietly never receiving any updates at all.

I find that Stevia has a vaguely creamy flavour to it. Which works well in some instances, and not in others.

Aspartame just tastes awful, for me I get this weird sticky/bitter sensation over the roof of my mouth and turn my throat.

Splenda/Sucralose tastes fine, but has noticeable effects elsewhere, which are a bit TMI.

Purchased! I had Steep and Star Trek Bridge Crew in my account at the time.

This was two years ago, mind, Ubis terms might have changed since then.

In 2021, I got an email that said: “We have temporarily suspended your inactive Ubisoft account and will be closing it permanently in 30 days in accordance with our Terms of Use.” - And my account had two games at the time.

It really winds me up how results that match every search term aren’t prioritised any more. I often search for very specific pieces of hardware, and it’s been a nightmare since the late 2010s. You now have to pore over each result to check that it’s 100% what you’re are looking for.

SEO exacerbates the problem, but I’d say the root cause is the algorithm itself.

Or you are taken to a thread where someone says “Just Google it”…
