With this particular concert, no, they're spending company money (which otherwise could have gone to employees) for themselves.

Would you mind to name five of those hundreds of problems?

There are bricks of various kinds, and they can very well be challenging for Wifi. Concrete is even harder, and if you have reinforced concrete, good luck.

It's in this article.

And it won't go into production next year. But workers will still be treated like shit.

If you don't want to communicate with non-Signal users and are always within range of a public or known Wifi network where ever you are in Afghanistan, then I guess this is fine.

Come on, almost two thirds of DB Fernverkehr's trains are punctual (if you accept DB's definition of punctuality, which allows six minutes of delay to still be counted as punctual).

US is probably the only country that went back on rail transport. Every other country is taking it as far as they possibly can.

I don't know for other countries, but Germany (that has a decent high-speed rail network, to be fair) had a rail network of almost 55,000 km in the 50s and less than 40,000 today. More than 300 train stations have been closed since the year 2000 alone.

A developer evangelist is not a press person, but a developer that gives talks to other developers. I didn't find any specific numbers, but Microsoft probably has hundreds of them. And anyway you wouldn't expect that kind of announcement to be made by anyone who isn't like C-level, in a presentation made specifically for that fact, accompanied by a big marketing campaign, and so on.

Windows 11 officially requires Secure Boot and TPM 2.0, but can easily be run with just TPM 1.2, and with some effort even without TPM. All the other system requirement increases (like single to dual core, 2 to 4 GB RAM, etc.) don't really play a role for any recently built PC anyway.

But incorrectly quoted as "Microsoft promised...". It was one low-tier Microsoft employee who said it once, in a side note of a conference talk that was not about the future of Windows.

If you're talking about specific models, sure. But if you ask a group of people "Who's here by bicycle today?" the ones that came with an e-bike would raise their hands, too.
