There's an ongoing narrative that Windows is worse than ever today and people are leaving in droves. Paul does not see that, and will simply point to Windows 8 and remind folks that it can be (and was) worse. Also, PowerToys 0.98 adds a major new fea... more

Can Microsoft's push for cloud PCs and AI-powered agents redefine where and how we work? If you keep to the defaults, Windows 11 is secure. Copilot+ PC is even more secure. But you can take additional steps to secure it either way, and you should. Pl... more

Please stop with all the snide political commentary. Everything is so negative when discussing Microsoft and other big tech. Also, not everyone that listens to the show is left or right on the political spectrum. The truth is always in the middle and listeners are not coming to the show to listen to political commentary about topics that are not even tech related. If you want to discuss openly all political and cultural topics then why not start a different podcast?
To much politics not enough tech.
I would say it’s the best Windows podcast, but then it is pretty much the only one. You would would have to go a long way to make something better. It’s good Mr Thurrott is feeling happier, I thought for a minute he was going to join the cat hair underwear mob and move to Linux. I also never really cared much for Whiskey until Richard’s mini lectures, I still wouldn’t pick it as a drink, but I enjoy learning about its diversity Not sure about the cranky old guy though who keeps rattling on about... more
I’ve been listening to Windows Weekly since the beginning and still enjoy the kind of prickly nature of Paul’s coverage of Microsoft with the added element of Richard in the show but Leo honestly derails this too much these days or makes clear his interest in nothing but AI. Please, save this show, get Leo to stay focused or let Mikah take on more hosting since he’s typically interested in the actual rundown when he substitutes.
AI can be used for better or worse, it is just a tool. Yes.
But saying people’s reactions against AI are “emotional” is completely bogus.
Maybe if ANY of you three did actual programming for your LIVELIHOOD and not as a freaking hobby you would feel similar existential dread at AI everywhere.
As it is, you’re just some millionaire boomers with well-funded retirements, multiple homes, and cushy non-jobs telling others there’s no problems. Your retirement portfolios’ success is directly relate... more
