Hurt at the implication that Linux is not quality
OS age verification says no, sorry
It is so tragic how misinformation spreads.
A single init system (of the multiple that exist) enabled the option for an age check to be implemented to said init system, which is then still left at the discretion of each individual distro to either enable or keep disabled. So far only corporate distros seem interested, or at least ambivalent, in enabling said feature. Most other distros don’t have it enabled nor are planning to, and US law cannot touch them since many distros are HQ’ed out of the US.
Despite this, we are already seeing comments such as this one. Very sad.
As a former windows insider it’s too little too late. Already switched to Linux.
Too little too late
Integrating AI where it’s most meaningful, with craft and focus: You will see us be more intentional about how and where Copilot integrates across Windows, focusing on experiences that are genuinely useful and well‑crafted. As part of this, we are reducing unnecessary Copilot entry points, starting with apps like Snipping Tool, Photos, Widgets and Notepad.
OK but who thought that was a good idea in the first place and are they seeking employment elsewhere? It was and is incredibly stupid.
Reducing disruption from Windows Updates: Receiving updates should be predictable and easy to plan around, so we’re giving you more control. This includes the ability to skip updates during device setup to get to the desktop faster, restart or shut down without installing updates and pause updates for longer when needed, all while reducing update noise with fewer automatic restarts and notifications.
These are basic things that should have been there decades ago.
Thank you for holding us to a high standard. Windows is as much yours as it is ours
I’ll expect my dividend check posthaste.
They had 6 years to fix the taskbar and now they’re listening?
And they want to make the AI more meaningful but no mention of letting people turn it off.
I guess they’re worried. I already left.
That’s unfair. We have been listening to you all this time. And sometimes watching. And once we’re done with recall, also recording so we can watch and listen again or train our AI to watch you instead. Because honestly who wants to watch people work. That’s gross.

Thanks, microslop, nobody cares
Reminds me of all those “tech magazine” articles years ago saying “akshually Edge is a really good browser” after the entire Windows user base only used it to download some other browser instead.
It was a decent browser. And an independent engine, which everyone here seems rabid for
Now it’s just another Chromium.
Trident was such a cooler name than WebKit, too. A rare instance of Microsoft giving something a name that was neither confusing nor lame.
I mean, those ActiveX controls were a little… well… Trident was a cool name!

Reminds me of “Security security security.”
Now, with AI.
not looking back, and with the macbook neo there’s gonna be a lot more people leaving.
As an 85% windows user, this is hilarious and fuck Microsoft.
The fact that a multi-billion dollar company publishes a post like this shows how bad things have gotten.
It’s afraid!
They still insist on stuffing AI down the users’ throats. Good that I never started with this windows crap.
This should go in @programmer-humor or something.
The month of March ended sooner than expected this year…
