Microsoft is moving forward with its plans to turn Windows 11 into a full-fledged “AI” operating system amidst Copilot backlash. The first big move in that direction is an experimental feature called “Agent Workspace,” which gives AI agents access to the most-used folders in your directory, such as Desktop, Music, Pictures, and Videos.

      It has gotten so much easier too. I started with Ubuntu on an old laptop to try it out back in ~2017. I had some ‘learning experiences.’ This year, it took almost no effort to slap bazzite on a machine, do a few small tweaks using a GUI settings app, no terminal activity needed, and let even someone who has never used a CLI just get on with their day with basically no issue. At this point, the only issue is a handful of software, specifically Adobe and their nonsense.

    I just … of all the shit that MS has pulled throughout the years. This is just spectacularly bad.

    Remember when voice activation left a loophole for hackers to just do stuff by talking to the OS through the speakers?

    You could say that that was a “silly oopsi”.

    But this is … like that uncle who got way too drunk at the family party and ended up streaking the backyard with fireworks in his hands, … buknaked.
