New Dev channel build brings theme-aware splash screens to some built-in apps
Windows 10 comes to Chromebook (Enterprise) via Parallels Desktop.
Semi-related: A Your Phone rant by MJF. This should be a great app. It's not but I hope it's fixable.

The Office PWA saga continues
Office PWAs were being installed on Insider PCs. And then on normal PCs. Now, Microsoft says it's just a bug in Edge and will be fixed. That said... Shouldn't these apps be installed in Windows 10?
And speaking of PWAs: There's a way to start testing by putting them in the Microsoft Store with PWA Builder

Hell freezes over. Again.
Microsoft releases Edge browser preview on Linux.
Semi-related: Chromium-based WebView2 starts rolling out (Win32 only)

Tips and picks
Tip of the week: How to get Windows 10 20H2. If you're on Windows 10 version 1903 or newer, check for updates: If your PC configuration is not blocked, you'll get it. More technical users who aren't worried can simply get the update from the Update Assistant or the newly-available ISO.
Tip of the week #2: Here's how to "fix" Alt + Tab in 20H2. Don't like how Edge tabs appear as their own "apps" in Alt + Tab? Here's how to fix that problem. (I hate it.)
Enterprise pick of the week: Microsoft, the live events consultant. Microsoft isn't running just its own live events. It's now seemingly in the business
Codename pick of the week: Akri. Is Kubernetes driving you over the edge? You need Akri. Akri (translates to "edge" in Greek) is a new open source project. Akri (sort of) stands for A Kubernetes Interface for the edge. This is for edge devices too small to run Kubernetes themselves and which users may want to connect to Kubernetes.
