Microsoft promises smaller Windows 10 upgrades

Heading toward the "rolling upgrades" model, are we?

How to turn up the dialogue on your TV

I bought a soundbar which sits in front of and under the TV, to take care of this issue. The soundbar (inexpensive model from Best Buy) does have modes, and it also allows me to use Bluetooth to hear the sound from my tablet much better. It acts as a pair of speakers plus a center-channel speaker, or 3.1, if I have my numbers correct. A subwoofer could be added, but it's the bass which annoys neighbors in an apartment, so I don't have one of those. 

Samsung recalls 2.8 million washing machines following serious injuries (I think they either have engineering or quality control issues)

The NBC News version of this story pinned the issue to a too-powerful motor. That would point to design or engineering. Their phones were also not designed properly, being capable of overcharging the LiIon batteries until they could explode. By contrast, my ASUS tablet never seems to charge up to its full capacity -- perhaps as a safeguard.

Why Windows 10 Updates Will Soon Be Less Terrible

This may only apply to those who don't force Widnows 10 to delay updates, so as not to get hit by a bad patch. Those still happen once in awhile. The longer we delay, the larger the downloads for the Cumulative Updates. But a shift to Microsoft's servers of even part of the checking process could still yield real benefits. 

Get Windows Media Center Running On Windows 10

I see no mention of security checking and security updates for systems with WMC forced into them. If any exploit ever gets launched which leverages something unpatched, there may be more than a few WMC users who will regret their decision to continue using an unsupported feature set inside of Windows 10. And precious little tech support to clean up the attack. 

I have not seen any reports of such an active exploit, but the risk is there. 

Also remember that Windows 10 is constantly evolving. Any Windows 10 Cumulative Update could wipe out WMC, not necessarily as a primary target, but in the course of upgrading some other security issue or feature set. 

Maybe it's worth the risks, but be aware that these risks do exist.

Here we go again: Microsoft's popping up ads from the Windows 10 toolbar

I haven't seen these yet.

Windows 10 Anniversary Update: Finally ready for prime time

 I just applied the Anniversary Update to my laptop and my tablet. The laptop had very few issues. (My newer NUC build got the AU installed along with the OS.)

 The tablet is my ASUS Transformer Book, which is a WIMBoot design. The update was performed via Microsoft Updates, not the Update Assisatant which I used on the laptop. 

 In a WIMBoot device, the installer downloads, then goes through a three-phase process.  

First the EFI Boot firmware is rewritten, which resulted in the proprietary ASUS-Intel SOC firmware being overwritten. (This did cause numerous device issues, so I had to reinstall the SOC Firmware from an ASUS download.) Drivers are also overwritten throughout the installation process, and may have to be updated from the manufacturer, which I also did. All the previously working Windows 10 drivers from ASUS still worked with the AU installed. 

 The second phase is updating the Base WIM, from which the tablet boots. (It runs full Windows, not a compressed WIM, when running.) This phase also overwrites the Recovery WIM. 

 Finally, the installer goes into the familiar upgrade process for the full Windows installation. Which takes a long time and does several restarts. 

 Both the laptop and the tablet took about two hours to go through the whole download to finished installation process, with a few reboots in between. Otherwise, the process would be totally unattended, but my laptop does a dual-boot, and both devices have a Macrium Reflect Recovery Boot Option, so I had to manually click on the OS menu item to restart the Windows Installer.  

 So it took basically a whole weekend, but both devices are now on the Anniversary Update. Once up to the 1607 version, there were additonal MS Updates to install or reinstall through the normal updates mechanism. I also had to reinstall the DriverMax utility, due to a Reserved Memory Violation error. 

 Once the SOC Firmware was reinstalled, there were no further driver issues, but I did reinstall some of the ASUS Win 10 Drivers (Sound, Keyboard Hotkeys and WiFi but not Bluetooth, as the Microsoft driver and recent patches are more recent and work better on the tablet. WiDi-Miracast still works just fine, so no need to reconfigure for my Screen Beam receivers.).

 One Last Thing:

 Microsoft to patch Windows security flaw under attack next weekend
