      What exactly does Copilot even do that would enable you to be in more than one meeting at a time?

        Probably just transcribes everything and maybe summarizes it, I would imagine.

        Their target demographic seems to be the level of office worker that is forced to be present at these things but doesn’t get a speaking role, except for barking out like one sentence at the right time to prove they are listening.

        Apple was targeting the same people.

        It’s like they’re self aware that corporate culture is completely nonsense and they’re leaning into it hard whilst perpetuating it. Playing both sides as they always do!

    Microsoft bad and all, but is this really a good fit for the pics community?

        Isn’t a screenshot also a picture? It can literally be the same file extension too.

        Why didn’t OP just take a screenshot? Why go through the effort of taking a photo with their phone to then transfer it to a PC?

            It’s not a screenshot. It’s a photo of the screen.

              Yeah, no shit. They were asking if the reason it’s a photo of the screen might be that you can’t take a screenshot of the login screen (which I have no idea the answer to)

                Well you being a dick about it certainly helped clarify it. Thanks

          Good point. If this community wasn’t for screenshots, it would be called “photographs”. All images, even memes, should be allowed here.

      My favorite part of random picture communities is that I get to experience little slices of particularly notable life experiences different people have. This still fulfills that for me.

    Your worthless existence will be justified if you use Microsoft products. You will feel valid. You will feel loved. You will matter.

    🎵 When a grid’s misaligned with another behind that’s a moiré 🎵

    What is Microsoft Search anyway? Is it the web results in the start menu that I always turn off or have they renamed Bing?

    Meaningless marketing gibberish, utilizing buzzwords + product name in an unholy algebra desperate for your attention and unconcerned whether or not it succeeds.

    After all, how many RC Cola ads do you need to see before you’ll buy RC Cola? How many times does Microsoft need to poke and prod at you before you’ll refer to internet searches as “Bings”?

    And how much longer will we accept this paradigm before we start pushing back, utilizing our own, actually genuine messaging until Microsoft finally finally hears: You are a disreputable company, and you’re making the world a worse place.

    …I tell them constantly, but they don’t listen.
