Taskbar overflow was in the mainstream Windows 11 release, giving users an overflow area to place extra apps after they’ve picked which apps they want to appear in the taskbar. Microsoft says it is now “reintroducing” taskbar overflow with a new experience to give users faster and smoother app switching and app launching.

Raspberry Pi kits – which generally come with electronic components that can be transformed from a simple monitor or LCD into a working PC – were first created in the UK in 2012. The Raspberry Pi Foundation wanted a way to teach computer science in schools, and since then, more than 30 million Raspberry Pi boards have been sold. They are now very popular among computer scientists and children trying to learn programming languages like Python and Java....

Some beg to differ. “Up until now it has been more hype than reality,” says Mike Noonen, the chief executive of wireless chip startup MixComm, regarding 5G. “What has been rolled out so far is not ready for prime time,” argues Noonen. “A scattering of headlines: it’s too hot and you can’t find it; it’s too costly.” There is evidence indeed that 5G has so far not fulfilled its promise....

Windows 10 was pretty good. And that brings us to Windows 11. Look, there are some good reasons for Windows 11. Microsoft did need to do a reset that ups the baseline for system security.

Welcome to the next-generation workplace – or at least Meta’s version of it. At the company’s office near King’s Cross in London, I recently got to try out the firm’s latest technology, the Meta Quest Pro, and a series of related features, known as Horizon Workrooms. Meta says the Quest Pro is designed “specifically” to spur new levels of creativity and collaboration in the workplace. While a lot of the focus on the metaverse so far has been on consumer-facing deployments, whether that’s gaming, virtual shopping or collecting NFTs, Meta’s keen to highlight how the Pro is a step forward in another direction: enabling the workplace of the future....

And yet, I didn’t buy one. Nor do I plan on doing so in the foreseeable future. For me, it’s about lifecycle and use case. I’ll talk about that in a minute. But let’s talk first about how we got here. It all starts in 2013 If I were forced to pick a date when Apple’s relationship with pro-Mac users started to go downhill, it would be June 10, 2013....

However, these technologies haven’t been adopted as broadly as LTE or Wi-Fi. The innovative team at Helium, for example, has enabled LoRaWAN proliferation by incentivizing consumers to purchase and host their own hotspots with cryptocurrency rewards. While the company has done a good job of expanding its ecosystem in the past year and is now expanding into offloading 5G network traffic, the proposition isn’t easy to convey to everyday users....

It isn’t the rebel company of years gone by. It is still a company that can create products people like and even occasionally love. Personally, I’m stunned how many adore their AirPods. Look, I’m just warming up here because an Apple executive uttered something that has bothered me for days and forced me to reconsider my view of life and the physical world. Many have already tortured themselves about the notch that’s appeared on Apple’s new MacBook Pros....

Apple released its new MacBook Pro to vast oohs and aahs, from people who’d never actually seen one or held one. I took one look at the big event and was disheartened by what seemed like the old MacBook Pro, injected with spec-tacular new innards. That’s enough for many. But I need a different sort of joy. Spiritual, not just spec-ful. Visual and sensual, not just ritual and factual. So, on a sunny weekday morning, I wafted to an Apple store to see the thing itself and to hear how Apple store salespeople would try and enchant me....
