The company has released another new preview build to members of the Windows Insider Program’s Dev Channel – that’s the first stage anyone with a Windows 11 device can test it for themselves. Not all Dev Channel functionality will make its way into a final version, but it’d be a surprise not to see these features arrive at some point. Arguably the most significant change is something Microsoft chose not to highlight in its official blog post....

It can also be used to update drivers for popular hardware devices. Patches and other security updates are routinely released through Windows Update on the second Tuesday of every month—it’s called Patch Tuesday. However, Microsoft releases updates on other days as well, like for urgent fixes. What Is Windows Update Used For?

The new version is available for direct download from the WineHQ website. As well as Linux, Wine is also available on other Unix-like systems, including macOS.

The 26-year-old made over 200 appearances and scored 42 goals in his six seasons at Valencia since signing from French side Grenoble in 2010. Feghouli, who has been capped 40 times by Algeria, will join the London club on July 1. “I am very happy to sign for the Hammers and for (coach) Slaven Bilic,” Feghouli said on the club’s website (whufc.com). “The history of the Club is important for me in my decision....

The decision came after a couple seasons where Giroux’s even-strength production had been dropping off dramatically. His power play numbers remained among the best in the league, but it appeared that five-on-five hockey wasn’t working out as well for him as it had in the past. MORE: Winners, losers from the Matt Duchene-Kyle Turris trade The solution for the Flyers was to try out Sean Couturier in a new role as the pivot on the top line between Giroux and Jakub Voracek....

That kind of attitude, however, could turn the right NFL bottom-feeder into a winner. How can you say that after “that play”? You know, the one where Winston fumbled away any chance for victory and generated a million memes. On that, Winston had some self-awareness. He even laughed. “It was an unfortunate play, man,” Winston said. “I never thought I would slip, throw the ball backwards. Man, it’s just a very unfortunate play, but that’s football....

Norwegian cross-country skier Therese Johaug bagged the first gold medal at the ongoing 2022 Beijing Winter Olympics on February 5. The Winter Games finally took center stage amidst the COVID-19 and human rights concerns. Russia’s Natalia Nepryaeva pulled away from the group on the last climb to take silver. Teresa Stadlober of Austria finished just behind the Russian to win the bronze medal. Johaug pulled off a convincing victory in the women’s skiathlon 7....

Lots of people want to know what Tails, Knuckles, Amy, and Dr. Eggman will do in the game’s plot, but they’re only the core Sonic the Hedgehog characters in a franchise with tons of recognizable faces. Perhaps the most recognizable is Shadow, Sonic’s brooding counterpart who often alternates between an anti-heroic antagonist and unlikely ally. Sonic Team hasn’t confirmed that Shadow will play a role in Sonic Frontiers, but considering how much Sonic fans love Shadow, as well as what fans know about Sonic Frontiers so far, it wouldn’t be surprising if Shadow turned out to be a linchpin in the game’s plot....

Chris Anderson, editor of Wired magazine, has dubbed this phenomenon “The Long Tail,” in honor of the shape given to the curve resulting from a graph plotted by sales on these sites. (There’s a huge bulge at the “head,” representing best-selling products, and an extended, tapering tail at the end, wherein lie many niche products that are suddenly easy to find via search engines, blogs and filters.) In his new book, “The Long Tail: Why the Future of Business Is Selling Less of More,” Anderson makes a cogent case for how this new model encourages diversity, expands choice and strikes a blow against the megahit mentality....

Last week Ron Paul—a Republican, at least in name—crossed the 1 million mark for votes. At the Washington offices of the Libertarian monthly magazine Reason, Matt Welch, the magazine’s editor-in-chief, introduced the debate with a nod to the Texas congressman: “We’re here to talk about Libertarian politics in 2008 and what is shaping up to be something of a Libertarian moment in the wake of Ron Paul’s ongoing revolution,” Welch said....

New Delhi - India’s young tennis player Vishnu Vardhan Wednesday said he would try to convince veteran Leander Paes to play alongside him at the London Olympics if the need arises. Vardhan is in the running to partner Paes after Mahesh Bhupathi and Rohan Bopanna refused outright to share the court alongside the 1996 Atlanta Games bronze medallist. The All Indian Tennis Association (AITA) is racing against time to sort out the selection row as the International Tennis Federation’s (ITF) deadline for players entries ends Thursday....

The man whom Usyk targeted, of course, is Tyson Fury, who has claimed to be retired after knocking out Dillian Whyte in the sixth round in an April 23 bout. That status did nothing to deter Usyk, however, who claims the “Gypsy King” wants to fight him as well: Whether Tyson Fury wants to come out of retirement to take on the reigning heavyweight champion out of Ukraine, however, remains to be seen....

If we run through his stats this season we have Vijay averaging less than 20 in 13 innings (when he batted mostly at no.4) and just one wicket to his credit. To add to this he doesn’t have that many noteworthy performances in his limited ODI career either. Compare that to recent contenders in the form of Shubhman Gill, Manish Pandey, Ajinkya Rahane and it does raise concerns because all of them boast of a much better resume and fit the role of a No....

Larson finished third while Kahne was fourth as the Sprint Cup drivers finished behind Nationwide Series regulars Chase Elliott and Trevor Bayne. It still was a worthwhile venture for them on what could have been an off-weekend. The big question, though, for Larson and Kahne is when they return to Chicagoland in September, will they be there as qualifiers for the Chase for the Sprint Cup?

Kubica, who has tested but not raced competitively in F1 since suffering serious injuries in a rally crash in 2011, completed 24 laps of the Barcelona circuit on Friday and was able to outperform his team-mate Lance Stroll.

Frank Viola was World Series MVP in 1987, the American League Cy Young Award winner and Sporting News’ MLB Pitcher of the Year in 1988, then a 20-game winner with the New York Mets in 1990. A three-time All-Star, Viola now is the pitching coach for the Las Vegas 51s of the Pacific Coast League, the Mets’ Triple-A affiliate. He returned to the bench in early June after a two-month recovery from open-heart surgery....
