My notebook is already sh*t and the CPU usually on 90%+ during the whole day.
Today I've learned that Copilot takes around 20% CPU while I've never used it. Nice.
Make a bad device even worse. Big thanks to Microsoft and the IT-Department

And this is why i *love* #waste11
Nearly every 2 weeks I'm unable to login because the screen gets blurred but Windows is unable to show a text box.
I just want to login, screen gets blurred. After a few minutes it gets back to the previous screen. I want to login. Screen gets blurred. After a few minutes it gets back to the previous screen…

Sometimes I have to reboot the computer multiple times to be able to get a text box.
This must be the high quality I was promised I guess..

Windows 11 is the only OS I know, which is incapable to show a textbox where I can enter a password.
The lock-screen switches to the "blurry background state" without showing anything. After 20-30 seconds it goes back and I have no opportunity to authenticate myself.
Wow. Just wow..

Other people: Yay updates, I wonder what is new.

Me (using #waste11): Let's see what's broken now.

Late but better than never:

The current context menu of my Windows. And no: I didn't cropped textfiles away. "Compressed folder" is the last entry.

Today I noticed that Windows 11 doesn't let me create text files anymore. The entry was purged from the context menu (right mouse click > new > text document).
Now: I have to open the editor first and create the file or copy another text file and rename it.. I'm so happy about it because the function was handy.

I don't know when Microsoft decided that plaintext is evil and should be banished because I need the entry with varying frequency.
