Tips and picks
Tip of the week: It’s time for Microsoft to put up or shut up
Tomorrow’s the day: Microsoft will have its first real Xbox Series X games promotion!

Enterprise pick of the week: Azure Stack HCI v2

But as Albacore (@TheBookIsClosed) on Twitter reminded me this week, Cloud started out as a discontinued Windows 10 SKU (replaced by S Mode).

Beer pick of the week: Uiltje Brewing Company Crybaby

Crybaby is a fruited berliner weisse which they describe as “casually tart.” They say: “the only person we are calling a cry baby is the buster who sips our beautiful little Berliner Weisse and complains that it is, uhm…. sour”
