    Hey! You wanna try Linux? I just made a new Linux called Copilot Linux. It looks just like copilot! I added suprice actions to make it as natural a transition as possible!

    Things like blue screens of death with just a “fucken” QR code! That way you won’t miss the original! But the QR code goes to porn hub. See? Its good!

    For right now I just released the name github. Sign up and I’ll send you ads!

    Reminder from the Copilot ToS:

    Copilot is for entertainment purposes only. It can make mistakes, and it may not work as intended. Don’t rely on Copilot for important advice. Use Copilot at your own risk.

      Always read the label, talk to your doctor to see if copilot is right for you

      I imagined the entire cast of Everybody Love’s Raymond but the scripts were written by copilot entirely and they have the corpses of Doris Roberts and Peter Boyle hanging from wires while copilot voices their characters with different lines than what was in the script.

    I literally had to write a clock app on my own because Windows clock is pretty bad.

    I was thinking that they’ll just replace the clock with Copilot eventually.

    Windows 11: “It’s 11 pm sharp. I know that because I looked at the RTC.”

    Windows 12: “It’s 11 pm sharp. That’s a phrase people like to say, apparently.”

    …Don’t give Microsoft any ideas.

      You know what that microsoft clock needs? To be rewritten in electron and support a web browser inside. That way, it can easily show ads to increase profits.

      I finally had to move to Windows 11, and the UI is just so fucking broken.

      I did discover StartAllBack the other day which helped tremendously

      like who thought removing the ability to show seconds in the clock flyout was a good choice‽

      pretty sure they’re already using copilot in the start menu program search. I searched for “not” today because I wanted to open notepad. I got three results, none of which had “not” in their name. like jesus fucking christ that’s so bad. one of them literally did not have any of the letters n o or t in the program name.

      They don’t need ideas, notepad is literally a copilot tool now.

      They never changed the icon because they know how discussting copilot is but literally every default windows app is now just a skin for copilot.

      Not an exaggeration this has already happened we just don’t realize it yet.

    This is actually a very good example of middle managers in a large organization getting marching orders and seeing which way the wind is blowing.

    IBM had a similar thing in the early 2010s when they decided they were all in on “cloud” (about 10 years too late). Every manager saw where things were headed and pivoted whatever their product was to “Cloud” regardless of the suitability.

    The higher ups like this too because it lets them put everything under the “cloud” or AI heading on earnings and revenue and makes them look like they are nimble and working on the new hotness, even if it’s just someone moving their calculator to a web app or whatever.
