According to "corporate responsibility" and "sustainability" at Microsoft they are committed to "swift, collective action and technological innovation" for "carbon negativity" and "zero waste" by 2030 [1]. Evidently the Windows team did not get the memo, as the e-waste producing minimum processor & TPM requirements in Windows 11 have been shown to be entirely arbitrary. One of the easiest things MSFT could do for the environment could start here.

- dwattttt 1y ago> minimum processor & TPM requirements in Windows 11 have been shown to be entirely arbitrary. I am curious who thinks they managed to show this. My understanding was that the minimum processor requirement was born out of hardware feature requirements. I know Virtualisation Based Security is on by default in Win11, and Intel processors older than 7th Gen don't have Mode-Based-Execution-Control, so they emulate it at a hefty penalty (they call it Restricted User Mode).
