Well just earlier today, I installed Pop OS on an external drive. I’ll be using that to see if I can use it as a daily driver. If I can, microsoft can eat the entirety of my arse.
Genuine question. How does all of this useless nonsense make them money? Is it all just from loans? Are they just saying “look at all the AI we’re doing” and the investors are just desperate to give them more money?
I just cannot fathom how they profit from all of this. They’re spending so much time doing this. For what? What is the business motive for doing this, if not to get bigger loans from their investors?
Copilot is falling very far behind all of the other big AI players in the space that it’s actually laughable. The main reason they’re implementing it into every Windows first party application is so they can boost their “user” numbers to satisfy investors. Every time you open Explorer, boom that counts as you “using” Copilot.
Nadella’s buddies are all making AI garbage, so he thinks he has to make AI garbage too. Because he’s massively uncreative.
And so all the managing leads think “Nadella likes AI! I must find a way to shove AI into my product so that my product/fiefdom doesn’t get the axe! I might even get a bonus! Or promotion!!!”
And so all the coding slaves are tasked with shoehorning AI into every Microsoft product, app, and/or service.
Is the share price going up? All they care about is the share price.
Down last few months, but overall strong upwards trend over the last few years.
I can already see them brainstorming how to put that stuff in the calculator app.
At least, they don’t put it into the event viewer, because its source code has never seen a change. Looks like 10 years ago and the performance is as bad as then.
Thank you Microslop!

Yeah I felt a bit more clever this time, than just repeating, for the umpteenth time on stories like this, over the last year or so:
… People still use MSFT products?
Yeah I keep making that exact same comment… its been really easy, as a former MSFT employee, to see where this train has been headed.
MSFT is a cult, ok?
Thats the only way to explain/describe management and C Suite.
And they’ve been like that for at least a decade.

“Rico!”
“Kaboom?”
“Yes Rico, kaboom!”
Holy shit, just fucking stop
I have to use Windows 11 for my school computer, not allowed to change the OS. I didn’t realize how shit awful explorer had gotten between 10 and 11. For anyone reading this who has to use 11: there are explorer alternatives. I use OneCommander and it let me change the default explorer for shortcuts and when other programs bring things up like with “show in folder” options. I don’t have to use windows explorer anymore and while it’s no Linux at least it doesn’t have fucking copilot and it gives me back basic control
My father always used Total Commander, the default explorer has always been lame
It may not be helpful enough and getting on in age (maybe others know of something similar), but there is a mod called OldNewExplorer that you can run and choose to modify a few elements of Explorer. I’ve used it to change the details pane from the side back to the bottom of the window.
I just got a colonoscopy and the doc said she found some copilot in there
Terminal
Powershell, acktually
It makes sense for it to be there
Eww
Only if it’s more than a yard deep.
At this pace Microsoft will change Windows’ name to Copilot. That’s my prediction.
“I know we said Windows 10 would be the last version of Windows you’d need, but we really mean it this time with Windows 11. Introducing our new operating system… Compost, I mean, Copilot!”
They’re already changing the name of MS Office to “Microsoft Copilot App”. So when you use Copilot inside Microsoft Office on Windows, you’ll be running Copilot in the Copilot App on Copilot OS.
Microsoft CopilOSt
Microsoft One Copilot would bean incredibly Microsoft thing to call Windows
Stopped using Explorer long time ago. They were unable to implement tabs and color coding of files for the last 30 years. Just use Directory Opus.
Microslop going full “the beatings will continue until morale improves” with their ensloppification of everything they touch, I see.
Gotta pump up those usage numbers somehow. Before long, it’ll be on the login screen
