buheratorThis is beautiful. I've been looking at this for 5 hours now.
Jeez this blew up! If you are reading this:
Learn how things work and write it down. We're accelerating to stupid.

Patch You Up@buherator Damn, they're trying to get them to watch a movie with 22% on rotten tomatoes. At least they could have shown them The Terminal, which is objectively better.
Andy Gates@Jumpmed @buherator Quality doesn't matter when there's an advertising deal to flex!
@andygates @buherator Very true! 😅
ltning@buherator I thought it was another @NanoRaptor thing, just sicker and more disturbing than usual.

I searched for zoom and hit enter. Bad luck for me, the uninstallzoom.exe is alphabetically before zoom.exe. Guess what happened next

Lukas@buherator btw I'm working on a movie called cmd.exe and its sequel Editor and the tie-in videogame Adobe Acrobat Reader are in the works.

MeaTLoTioN@buherator 5 hours? I looked at it for 5 seconds and it was already enough lol
Sass, David@buherator I read it with the extra word "server" in my head.

What worries me more is that there’s likely someone at today's Apple looking at this and thinking, “yes, this is the way!”

Windoze: I see you typed the exact name of that program you use all the time.... You're probably looking for this random webpage. No? What about this dusty old file someone shared with you five years ago? It has almost the same word somewhere on page 53. Aren't you amazed that I found this? I applied some aggressive spell correction based on your keyboard layout and voila! No?
*filter: apps*
W: oh, I see, you probably want some Adobe app. Here's a whole bunch of apps you can buy.

Yora@metnix @buherator Ads in OS are an offense against all that is decent.
If you actually pay to use that OS, that's just self-flagellation.

Cluster Fcku@metnix @buherator no? No? No? I have more and fancier tricks to make me even more stupid: a "no" is an interaction so everything you rejected now becomes "recommended for you"
@buherator People who buy their own computers with Windows on it and not erasing it to install Linux have nobody to blame but themselves.
You people have chosen this.

Aaron@yora @buherator I'm annoyed that the windows license is part of the price
@hosford42 @buherator The Windows Tax.
If manufacturers sold notebooks without Windows, they could still add half the price of Windows without having to pay Microsoft, and would make more money selling that computer than if they sold it with Windows.
I assume they just slap windows on it so the computer has an OS that 95% of people just take as is, and don't have to worry about anyone accidentally buying the Linux computer because they didn't know there's non-Windows computers.
mxk@buherator the funny thing is: for most users thats probably the more useful result.
Most PC users don't use a terminal.

Richard W. Woodley ELBOWS UP 🇨🇦🌹🚴♂️📷 🗺️Although it seems the tech industry wants us to use all our powerful machines as dumb terminals and have all the real work done in the so-called cloud (their computers) so they can overcharge us for it.
Pino Carafa@buherator still using Windoze as long as that is the platform I work on but guess what's going to happen when I retire?
Thankfully there is still a way to turn this shit off, but I bet that soon there won't be.
No Exceptions@buherator It'd take 5 hours just to sort it all out.

At least, it shows a good movie suggestion 😎

ekariMicrosoft's attitude towards Linux: first ignore, then belittle, and then surprisingly start pushing Windows users towards it.
Lesley Lai@buherator This also caused problems when you have poor connectivity to their server (for example, when I was in China). It rendered the start menu unusable.
Luckily this at least can be disabled
John Harris@buherator Do you mind if I repost this image elsewhere? (I'd try to get my own image capture but I don't use Windows any more.)
@rodneylives We're on the WW fucking W, and this is a screenshot from X(?) that I got on Signal. Just go nuts with it!
@buherator Yes, but it's still good to try to be considerate I think. Thanks!
Mike Griese
peter KIRN@zadjii @buherator which launcher is that?
@pkirn @buherator the #powertoys Command Palette. It's gotten sooo gooood in the last couple releases
Toni Aittoniemi@buherator that’s pretty bad
Spoonbeard@buherator On my work PC, Search opens so slowly it often misses the first letter I type, so CAMI, becomes AMI, and SNAG becoimes NAG. I end up with an unusually number of Bing searches for Amish people and newsreader Naga Machetty.
The PowerTools search is better for sure, but unlearning the windows key tap at my age is a non runner.

Radu C. Martin@buherator and that’s not even the good terminal movie smh
Strange Quark@buherator It would be even more ironic if the movie picture was from the kafkaesque 2004 film, The Terminal.
Maybe if you did a few searches for Tom Hanks beforehand it would deliver that.
stfn@buherator I wonder what happens when you search for notepad
Giles Goat@buherator "There's NO terminal in Windows, there's Command Prompt" .. which points you to a war action movie with Arnold in 😂 ... but it's not the worst .. since 'last update X' now NVIDIA almost any time I start Win11 taunts me with 'something extra in their store' I haven't found a way yet to disable their ads ..
@gilesgoat @buherator I just type cmd. You can also skip the start menu altogether by typing it in the address bar in the file explorer.
@hosford42 @buherator @Mafalda
"cmd" gives you "Com Meus Deus" a Brazilian Soap Opera about a guy that after a traumatic event looses his faith but then after many things that happens regains it and becomes a priest. It has over 1000 episodes. 😅
Mafalda
CubeOfCheese@buherator is this real?
@cubeofcheese @buherator looks real to me. Pretty close to what I see
Ramon Fincken 🇺🇦@buherator not a great movie by the way
Amy
Cecelia@a @buherator We can turn off web results (for now), but then you loose Wikipedia results when you look up selected text that’s not in the dictionary. 😩 (Admittedly, that’s more of an issue on iOS when every app you open (or switch to) risks purging other apps from memory.)
Miakoda 
Bitslingers-R-Us@buherator I truly feel bad for people who believe that they can't not run Windows.
@buherator I still can't for the life of me even force Windows to do that, though. I only get the app (even if real Windows heads would be looking for cmd.exe, not 'Terminal' ;) )
From Parallels... new install so I haven't turned off some of this functionality yet (which you can...)
S0AndS0@buherator If your MicroSoft® Windows™ plus EULA© device has been up for more than four hours, then it may be worth checking an update hasn't hung

♾️ Water@buherator Pro tip: Block bing.com using the hosts file and all of this crap will be gone.
Lucas 🌐@buherator for the professionals, you get Ads in Windows 11 Pro as well :)
It’s better to work with the terminal, after watching that movie at work.

The only way to get windows updates to appear in the start menu is typing `upa`. I found this out by mistake once, but has stayed consistent for 2 years.
Not `upd` or even `updates`, but only `upa` works consistently.
🤷♂️
Jukka Niiranen@buherator At least the actual Terminal app is listed in the search results. Now, try the same with Recycle Bin.
Spoiler: Windows won't know it exists. It has only been in the OS since Win95. Yet unless you go and explicitly "Pin to Start", you will never be able to launch it from there.
Ditol@jukkan
Oh this is bad. This is really bad.
