Don't get me wrong - this is awful and is just another misstep in a long line of missteps by Microsoft.

But I also can't help but chuckle at this. It is so clear that "AI" as it has been developed today is hitting a peak of what it can do. These corporations are desperate to shove it in every product they possibly can to drive sales and valuations to make shareholders wet and yet the only things they ever advertise AI being capable of are crap like summaries, background removal, background insertion, grammar/typo checking, list making, web searching, etc. Most of it being crap that I have never once heard of a person being even remotely interested in... and why would they be? Why would someone want to edit their photos to add a different sky, new people, etc to create memories that never happened?

Cinnamon. Love it to bits.

You basically need 2 bikes if you're a cyclist:

A clean and modern bike you ride for pleasure or between secure locations.

And a beat up clunker that is disposable and/or looks unappetising to thieves that you can leave in public spaces.

Still not a great company these days, but at least it's back in Canadian hands again.

"Load up and play" is a very loaded statement. When I tried it, about a year ago, it was a buggy, glitchy, crash-prone mess that ran like deepfried garbage.

Buying a game post-launch:

  • Better prices; often on sale.
  • Fixed and patched up.
  • Extra content often included.
  • DRM often removed.

No brainer, imo.

At least the name and brand is back in Canadian hands again.

Sorry, but I have to say it. What the heck does this have to do with technology? This is just US politics again.

This is what got me about the RTX 50 series cards from Nvidia. People with 4090's getting upset at the prices and lack of supply as if they must purchase one.

Ikea's standing desks are built pretty good and look nice, but not many of them have height preset buttons on the controllers. One of them also requires an app on your phone to set and use presets, and the app is basically broken from what the reviews of it say.

So do your research and look into reviews on the model(s) you're interested in.

I got mine from https://www.sourceofficefurniture.ca/.

This one in particular.

If you have any questions about the desk or the company I'd be glad to answer if I can.

And then sending those "perfect" children off to die in their many wars.
