my favorite feature of copilot is that on top of being extremely stupid, it’s very easily offended. literally the only thing they made sure it would consistently get right is being fucking touchy.
I used copilot like four times to test what it can do. it is so fucking bad. every “conversation” inevitably ends with me saying “you’re useless” and copilot getting offended and immediately ending the conversation with a passive aggressive message basically implying “I’m done with this. you can try again if you’re gonna be nicer next time”
lol fucking dumb useless piece of code, can’t even ask it the simplest questions without it spitting some absolute nonsense, but also can’t take shit because it’s too precious and self respecting. fuck you, Microsoft.
Why Microsoft is so obsessed with the word “copilot”? There’s like 4 different things with the same name.
Missed opportunity to re-brand clippy
Good. Clippy doesn’t deserve to get treated like that.
Microsoft will definitely have the power to bulldoze all other things named copilot, like Facebook did to meta. I’m still not over AI being a lame word now. I miss the time when it felt sci-fi and not like a corporate buzzword.
William Gibson made the metaverse, fuck FB for stealing that cool name for a 3D world and then botchering it so hard it will never ever even be a thing lol. I mean how hard can it be with those kind of budgets they have. Smh.
Great, more vendor specific keys that absolutely nobody needs.
As much as I don’t like these buttons, working in tech support, I can tell you far too many people can’t figure out anything more complex than “push the giant button that says the thing you want on it”, and that is even difficult to get some people to understand.
I kinda see your point, but a huge number of people have a subscription to at least one streaming service, so those buttons are a useful feature for a lot of people.
A huge number of people like pussy too, but that doesn’t mean I want a button for it
(I’m gay af)
So buy another TV.
Unlikely all 4 though. Give people 1-2 they can map services two, instead of multiple wasted (branded) buttons.
Most consumers want their device to work right out of the box, mapping buttons isn’t something most of the population wants to deal with.
Don’t give them excuses, mate.
Map them during initial setup.
Please choose a service you would like to use and we will help you log in.
You have x buttons that are available to use as a shortcut to the service. Please press the button you would like to use, or press enter to skip this step.
But then you have to remember which one is which. The ones in your example are already labelled.
You work in their marketing department, don’t you?
The scenario I mentioned would have the buttons simply labeled with a number/letter. 95% of the time I don’t even look on the remote to use a button. Also, if you hit the wrong button, no big deal, you just the other/s.
Like I mentioned, stop giving them excuses.
Nobody will remember that. Too complicated for Grandma.
Do you guys have remote with dedicated key for specific channel? Awful!
Yeah some TV’s these days come with streaming built in and have this kind of remote. Plus if you buy a set top streaming box like a Roku, they come with this kind of remote also. It’s stupid, but a real world thing.
Yeah
someall TV’s these days come with streaming built in and have this kind of remote.FTFY
Oh god. Thanks I am not there
Tux is my copilot, and never tries to be a back-seat driver.
Tux, take the wheel!
Let me?
In their (in)finite mercy.
I can’t believe this came before Samsung letting you reprogram your Bixby key.
Shit, even Apple lets you reprogram the Action Button, insofar as you can program anything on iOS (which isn’t nothing, Shortcuts scripting can be pretty detailed).
I used to have my car commands (AC, location, seat heaters, etc) on a shortcut. It was stacked shortcuts calling APIs and passing tokens and storing these for later use to reuse the same token.
I have an app that does that on my S8, but it’s definitely not official support.
What does the Key on its own do, what character does it send? Is it something standard or is it something custom?
Probably Ctrl + shift + win + alt + C, or something like that. The same modifiers + first letter of the program work for other services like word and linkedin
standard, surprisingly enough, it’s essentially just a shortcut to the key combination ctrl+shift+f23. guess microsoft figured they couldn’t leave all the extra F keys unattended
It’s something like win-ctrl-f23
(Despite the physical buttons having been missing for a long time on regular keyboards, there are still scancodes for f13-f24)
For what it’s worth too, the Windows “Powertoys” utilities have always been able to remap it.
I’m surprised they didn’t try to sell it to an ad company.
You’re hired!
