Thread 519634439

20 years ago we were tormented by the god damn Clippy (altough it was possible to disable it in Windows XP explorer and also in XP Office (Office 2002) )

>Microsoft kind of brings Clippy back

At least Clippy wasnt intelligent.

Microsoft is introducing Mico, a virtual character for Copilot's voice mode. The bouncing orb responds with real-time expressions during conversations and is being turned on by default.

>It is EXACTLY like Clippy altough its an orb and not a paperclip.

The assistant draws on a new memory feature inside Copilot to recall facts about users and their work. Mico will be available in the United States, United Kingdom, and Canada at launch. And later in Australia and New Zealand.

Microsoft is also adding a Learn Live mode that transforms the character into a Socratic tutor using interactive whiteboards and visual cues. The initiative is part of an effort to give Copilot a permanent identity.

The Youtube crowd is right on this one, Clippy never harvested every bit of data on you it could while being annoying and could actually be turned off. I guarantee this thing being "off" only means it's silent. It will still be fully functional in the background, gathering all the data and sending it off to god knows who.

Everything is so fucking gay and retarded I hate it

Fuck you Xbox Live that's like getting sent home from school oh no so I don't have to sit here and be bored. Dumb fucking nigger I already played that game in 2013

Yah Windows has a hidden system32 folder as well that stores all your clipboard information and you can trust them not to send your personal data to their Pajeets who totally won't look at your bobs/vagenes to train AI models for Palantir or your digital ID that you're SUPPOSED TO USE BECAUSE BILL GATES AND LARRY ELLISON SAID SO, GOY!

This will accelerate learning. Shizo chuds will always be screeching about glowniggers, proprietary software and needing an internet connection. These soon to be boomer nerds using linux are barely a notch above Q conspiracy theorists and flat earthers. Get on with the times.

>This will accelerate learning.
The problem is that you're conflating "learning" with using models developed online which have access to all your private information. It's fine to have these systems in school for courses that are done 1 trillion times over for slop careers that won't exist in the next 5 years. However, for people needing privacy, this entire architecture is a massive problem for society and total intrusion of privacy.

Even if you are a pedo or druglord they still won't connect your messages to you over copilot.

This isn't about being either a "pedo" or "druglord", retard. Scientists need privacy when creating documents for technology that they don't want in the hands of competitors. Lawyers need privacy so that their clients information doesn't get randomly stolen. Even average people need privacy to prevent their own government from putting them into prison for nebulous things like "hate speech symbols" which are completely made up by ministers who just want to abuse their power to put people into prison over opinions.

They're fucking your asses.

I use Linux.

>>519634439 (OP)
yes but it tried to have some soul even when it was extremely corporate, remember the green fields wallpaper add this, now they are just soulless indians

>>519636388
They're all Zutt Indians so I'd expect nothing less.

>>519635869
bro u can install a firewall on windows 11 and it will tell you that almost every time u press a key it is recorded and uploaded to microcuck

I stopped using windoshits years ago.
The truth is, it was the best I could do. I have Zorin OS 18, which is Linux, but the interface looks like Windows, which makes it easier to use.

>>519636745
>Zorin OS 18
Does it have Telemetry? It looks pretty neat.

>>519636156
None of those things happen. If you google shit like how to make a bomb then you might get into trouble. Take your pills schizo.

>>519637877
It's already happening, retard.
>Hurr durr let me just trust the corporation with all my private data nothing bad will happen to mee.
>Wait why is all my data being sent to them through telemetry and ad services? Oh well I'm retarded they won't do anything to me.

>>519637751
No, not have. Linux not have.

>>519638543
And don't install antivirus software either. Not only is it unnecessary, but antivirus programs also spy on you. Avast is the one I had on Windows, and it spied like crazy.

>>519638543
Ubuntu does have telemetry though.
>The distribution is built upon Ubuntu 24.04.3 LTS and uses the Linux kernel 6.14, which enhances hardware compatibility and system performance

>>519638699
I know "anti-virus" software spies like crazy.

>>519638726
I don't know anything about Linux programming, but I assume that Linux distros don't have telemetry. In any case, it will definitely be better than Windows.

>>519634439 (OP)
I'd be fine with them bringing Clippy back, I miss that MF like you wouldn't believe.
