Now excuse me, I need to lubricate his joints. And his everything else.
First thing I had opening my work laptop yesterday, notification pop-up titled “Open and pin Copilot!”
Fuck…OFF!
Refusing AI by using an AI generated meme?
But why?
I get to participate in a project to see how well-adopted AI tools are in our company… with the intent to see where we should invest in more promotion and schooling in how useful and valuable they can be.
Didn’t have the heart to tell the manager requesting my assistance that I’m also one of the non-adopters and no amount of promotion or schooling offer is likely to change that. They’re lower management anyway, can’t change the decisions made higher up, and I’m not gonna pick fights and sour working relations where there’s nothing to win.
It’s exactly where my control key used to be, so I often hit that button and nothing happens, unless Im using a Windows via AWS and suddenly I keep getting copilot springing up.
It’s a really user hostile move knowing that people will accidentally hit that button
So now I have to turn off the freaking Windows key and a copilot key.
Perfectly reasonable
It’s janky AF mess.
Internally the copilot key is hard coded to be meta + shift + f23. If you don’t recognise what the f23 key is, that’s because it was last featured over four decades ago on the IBM model M.
The fact that Microsoft has decreed that the Copilot key must send this exact shortcut of three different keys makes it very difficult to remap consistently.
Most keyboard remapping software (SharpKeys) work best at remapping single keys, not shortcuts. Windows users can use PowerToys to remap this three key shortcut, if you try to use it normally as a right ctrl, e.g. rctrl lshift p it doesn’t work consistently.
I suspect it might be because you’re essentially trying to send a whopping five keycodes for a shortcut, when most programs already struggle to handle 4.
Linux users were similarly out of luck until early last year, when most desktop environments fixed up the key codes.
Copilot key is based on a button you probably haven’t seen since IBM’s Model M - Ars Technica - arstechnica.com/…/shoehorned-windows-copilot-key-…
