Can you link something official saying that? Like documentation or CEO saying that.
They did not take them away. They decided not to add them. Windows 11 is a result of taking Windows 10, adding arbitrary cpu limitation to it, and bolting on a bunch of crap from the cancelled https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_10X
Congratulations! You baited the rage in the headline.
Even the main picture in the article shows the error message that clearly states:

"A new version might be available"

Their core competency was the Jobs' reality distortion field
It's Apple. They are good. They would never do layoffs like those evil companies like Google, Microsoft or Facebook. /s

The new outlook is literally that PWA.
Because the new outlook is literally the https://outlook.live.com/ website.
You mean rage baiting with misleading headlines?

The benchmarks are sometimes comparing an old build with bypassed denuvo with a newer build with optimizations and no DRM, and claiming that performance increase is only because of no drm and not because of optimizations.

AC2 only the multiplayer is missing. Game itself works.

Keep in mind that modern games generate/compile shader and other caches during runtime, that is one of the reasons for stutter. So when they try version with the drm removed the cache is already generated and so there are no stutters
Re:About the Tailscale.com outage on March 7, 2024 on Sunday March 31, 2024 @05:20AM (#39882698)

Because it's easier that actually catching and punishing the thieves.
From https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nova_classification

"The manufacturing processes for ultra-processed foods typically involve techniques such as extrusion"

"along with the addition of various cosmetic additives, including those for ... colour."

Based on that nova definition, handmade extruded pasta colored with beet juice is an ultra processed food.
