The latest Poll asks for "What is most important to you in a smartphone?"

I believe there is no "only one thing" that is the most important to a person. To me personally, It is the camera, presence of a headphone jack and the company behind it are equally important. Therefore, the ability to choose multiple options from the list would be beneficial.

Also, I would like to add you to add "performance" as an option in the poll.

@Tuskd, I've added the ability for polls now to have up to 10 choices, as well as multiple choice polling functionality. This works for both the homepage, as well as polls attached to news stories. Various other poll-related bug fixes are described in the full details.

  • Added support for multiple choice (end-users can select one or more options to vote for at a single time) vs single choice (end-users can select only one option to vote for). This can be toggled on a poll, if desired, even after it's been created and has received votes
  • Added functionality to support up to 10 polling options. Defaulted to 4 options, and can incrementally add additional to the poll editor form.
  • Added choice indicator to manage poll dashboard
  • Added "Cancel" action on Add and Edit poll forms
  • Moved option's vote count beneath respective field on Edit poll form
  • Fixed bug when there is a tie in the results such that the tied options now all properly display the 1st place blue color bar
  • Fixed bug of >1000 votes missing comma separator in results and poll dashboard
  • Fixed bug of when there has only been one vote, "votes" is no longer pluralized in the results (either for poll total or individual poll option)
  • Fixed bug where a choice with a blank name is no longer displayed to end-users to be able to vote on nor see in results
  • Fixed bug so the poll now correctly populates the options and results for a user if they have somehow managed to vote multiple times for the same poll
  • Confirmed all the above works both on homepage and when poll is attached to news article

    • On the 25H2 release, the "Insider Preview" references in the system has been removed. This usually indicates that the public release will be ready within 2 months.
    • Microsoft: Windows Autopatch is the safest way to upgrade enterprise PCs to Windows 11 by Usama Jawad A few hours ago, Microsoft published a guide for IT admins explaining how they can use Intune to upgrade Windows 10 devices to Windows 11, while also migrating from Active Directory (AD) to a cloud-native system like Entra ID. The company has also published a similar guide, but switched the tool to Windows Autopatch, claiming that it is the fastest and safest way for enterprise PCs to update to Windows 11. For those unaware, Windows Autopatch is a way to automate updates while empowering IT admins to ensure that endpoints are healthy and compliant through ring-based, staggered deployments. IT admins also have the ability to reverse updates easily if something does go wrong. In the current scenario of upgrading enterprise PCs to Windows 11 using Autopatch, Microsoft has outlined a four-step process. The first involves assessing Windows 11-readiness across your organization, assigning Entra ID groups to devices, and then mapping these groups to rollout rings in Autopatch. Next, IT admins should segment devices into Windows Autopatch groups, while also defining staggered rollout policies controlled through rollout rings. At a base level, there should be two groups: devices that meet the criteria of Windows 11 and should upgrade to it, and Windows 10 hardware that doesn't meet the criteria and should receive Extended Security Updates (ESUs). Devices should be spread in a logical manner across various rings, with each group having a dedicated update policy. The third step involves defining the speed of staggered update rollouts. This can be managed through the Intune admin center, which gives you control over sequencing, pace, and deferrals. Finally, IT admins should monitor the rollout of the Windows 11 update through the Windows Autopatch feature update reporting module. It contains the update status across devices, trendlines within historical views, and remediation guidance for errors. Microsoft believes that this combination of Windows Autopatch groups and Intune is the best way to upgrade to Windows 11, so IT admins should get started right away as support for Windows 10 is ending on October 14, 2025.
    • TDP of this CPU is 60 watts higher than Ryzen 7600. At s usage rate of four hours per day, at a cost of twelve cents per KWh, the Intel cost $10.51 more per year to use. I don't see a real advantage to Intel here.
    • Lmao. Cries about not playing those games not installed and yet don't ever want to touch them.
    • If I want to merge folder trees that have a similar structure, Beyond Compare is always my first choice. It's not free but it's awesome. If I want to just scan a whole drive/folder and find duplicates that are taking up space, I like Czkawka.
