This is a liability problem. They aren't simply going to trust that you aren't the driver. I think if they really wanted to they could do something similar to key fobs where they only work if they are in the proximity of the driver's seat. As already pointed out by a Random Stranger, simply having your passenger hit the play button doesn't make it any less distracting for the driver. -

Windows 11 gets improved app defaults settings and Windows Share in build 22631.5545 by Taras Buria Windows 11 build 22631.5545 is now available for download in the Release Preview Channel of the Windows Insider Program. The update is a pretty minor one, but it still packs some important changes, such as improvements for app defaults in the Settings app, Windows Share enhancements, and a few fixes here and there. With build 22631.5545, Microsoft is giving users in the EEA region more control over default apps in Windows 11, particularly for browser defaults. Now, browser defaults support additional file and link types. Your default browser now pins itself to the taskbar (you can turn this option off), plus you can change your typical PDF viewer with one click (if the browser of choice supports PDF handling). As for Windows Share improvements, the sharing window now includes a preview of the link that you are about to send to someone. The rest of the changelog includes various fixes: [Audit] Fixed: An issue with auditing privilege use created too many security event logs. These logs filled up the system drive and prevented users from signing in. [Authentication] Fixed: This update fixes an issue where domain-joined machines running Windows 11 22H2 or 23H2 couldn’t update their account passwords on Windows Server 2025 domain controllers, which led to trust relationship issues. [Country and Operator Settings Asset (COSA)] Fixed: This update brings profiles up to date for certain mobile operators. [Display Kernel] Fixed: An issue that prevented Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP) connections until you restarted your device. [Network file sharing] Fixed: This update fixes an issue where workstations and servers might stop responding when connecting to resources located on Server Message Block (SMB) shares. [Performance] Fixed: This update addresses an issue that prevented the complete removal of unused language packs and Feature on Demand packages, which previously led to unnecessary storage use and longer Windows Update installation times. [Shell] Fixed: This update resolves an issue where kiosk devices might stop responding after being locked and unlocked by an administrator. [Windows Hello] Fixed: This update fixes an issue that prevented the automatic renewal of expiring certificates in Windows Hello for Business. [Windows Search] Fixed: Windows Search responds very slowly—the Search Box can take over 10 seconds to load before you can use it. You can find the announcement post here. -

Micron announced a $200 billion investment plan in the US by Hamid Ganji Memory chipmaker Micron Technology has announced a $200 billion investment plan in the US to bolster its chip manufacturing operations. The investment focuses on Idaho, New York, and Virginia as production and R&D hubs. According to Micron's statement, the company's new investment plan in the US includes $150 billion in domestic memory manufacturing and $50 billion in R&D operations, which can finally create around 90,000 direct and indirect jobs for Americans. "These investments are designed to allow Micron to meet expected market demand, maintain share and support Micron's goal of producing 40% of its DRAM in the U.S.," Micron said. In addition to prior investments, Micron also said it plans to spend $30 billion on building a second leading-edge memory fab in Boise, Idaho, and modernizing its existing manufacturing facility in Manassas, Virginia. The memory chipmaker firm also has an ongoing plan to build a mega fab in New York. Micron's investment brings advanced packaging capabilities to the US, enabling long-term growth in High-Bandwidth Memory (HBM), a key component in AI data centers. "This approximately $200 billion investment will reinforce America's technological leadership, create tens of thousands of American jobs across the semiconductor ecosystem, and secure a domestic supply of semiconductors—critical to economic and national security," Micron CEO Sanjay Mehrotra said. The timeframe of Micron's investment in the US has yet to be determined. Still, it could be accomplished over the next four years as the company hailed Trump's administration for facilitating the investment. Meanwhile, Micron is not the only chip maker to unveil plans to invest hundreds of billions of dollars in the US under the Trump administration. In April, NVIDIA also announced a whopping $500 billion investment in the US to produce AI servers and other related gear. Other tech giants like TSMC, Apple, OpenAI, and SoftBank have also announced massive investment plans under the Trump administration.
