they havent even changed the build number, its still 4.0, they tried to hide the ****up. installed from their site is a few kb smaller and no update available after installing that. They should have named it 4.01, guess they didnt want neowin and engadget taking the **** out of apple not testing their software before releasing it.

It seems they've rushed on releasing 4.0 version :)

Worst thing is ...not at all! It's been in beta for months. I can't understand how they can roll out a 4.0.1 out so quickly tfix a few bugs that weren't fixed during the Beta -> Final phase...

It got me annoyed too, I didn't even upgrade yet. Also, I removed Webkit because it crashed too much, but Safari alone's just as bad. (I removed the nightly version of Webkit, not the whole engine from the original Safari...)

It's still the best browser in the world standards-wise and well... feature-wise (for ME), but it could have been polished a lot.

they're not attempting to hide anything...

    • It is silly there is no simple way to check whether this profile has been activated. CFRs are normal, but trying to even hide the fact if it's on / off seems silly, especially for something so user-facing. Surely Microsoft is "proud" of their engineering efforts on this one and ought to display it somwhere in the GUI.
    • Many Linux distros are not known for excellent battery life, so I'm not sure that is the best example. A more apt example may be Apple, but Apple's CPUs are simply far more efficient than Intel & AMD at single-threaded tasks like these, so "boosting" is not as power-hungry and less heat-inducing. Not to mention Apple will hardly engage P-cores for basic UI tasks; they use a pretty complicated QoS scheme to only activate P-cores for more serious workloads like HTML / JS execution or decompression or application launch. Microsoft is (smartly) doing it for launch, but also for UI tasks, which is the more nonsensical part: why ... do Windows 11's UIs need modern CPUs to boost? It should load so quickly that there's not even time for the CPU to boost.
    • I've not seen any controlled testing and, judging by Microsoft's mentality, within a year, they'll have added so much more bloat, it'll undo any perceptible latency benefit and we'll have boosted the CPU clocks for nothing.
    • It depends: heat soak is a thing. Initially on cold boot-up, the heatsinks & heatpipes are at ambient temp. After heatsinks & heatpipes warm up (through normal usage), they don't immediately cool to ambient temp when the load goes away. So their baseline is higher and the trigger point for fans is much less stress. Add a few more CPU spikes → it's too hot to stay at the same fan RPM → fans get triggered to start up up much sooner / get triggered to ramp much more quickly.
    • Can LibreOffice just shut up and worry about themselves and stop comparing themselves? Do we see Microsoft complaining about euro office?
