Jesus wept. Do you know what Notepad is for? TAKING NOTES. Or being a copy/paste bin for a few seconds. Certainly not for any kind of serious writing. It's meant to be small, lightweight, and functional. Fucking *idiots.*
A new AI cowriting feature has been spotted in recent preview builds.
Every week feels like I'm closer and closer to telling all my relatives I'm switching us all to Linux and we'll sort out the transition problems as we go... Honestly for most of them it would be fine - "click the Chrome button, proceed as normal." Probably.
once again, microsoft, what in the name of fuck are you doing. i want to like windows 11. its so nicely designed, looks pleasant, feels great to use. but bullshit like this pushes me to linux. why. WHY.
What the actual fuck are these dipshits smoking?
It truly is emblematic of the desperation of these con artists to offload the con. Except the con only works if you have a patsy to push it on, and nobody wants this shit.
They already slowed it way down in win11 and that’s annoying enough…. Ugggggh, like if I wanted more formal there’s wordpad
I think it's an even more bizarre choice in that it's on the heels of deprecating Wordpad, which was exactly the "word processor lite" that Notepad absolutely isn't. I wouldn't want AI in that app, either, but it would at least make slightly more sense there if that app still meaningfully existed.
I futzed about with Linux in high school/college but never quite had the motivation to commit... I think I may be getting very close for my next laptop
I've been using sticky notes instead since sticky notes was released on PC. Will the notepad AI be called clippy?
i tell ya, AI is gonna be the new IOT... thing. it's gonna be in practically anything they can shove it in for no particular reason other than the buzzword.i tell ya, AI is gonna be the new IOT... thing. it's gonna be in practically anything they can shove it in for no particular reason other than the buzzword.
