Noticed this while I was going through bank statement .pdfs on my computer. What would Co-Pilot even do with those????

At least Co-Pilot turned out to be easy to uninstall. This was a real sneaky move though, since it's not like it showed up after a Windows update, instead it just silently installed itself on my fucking computer. Also, just the sheer fucking gall to make it the first option when you right click on anything

I foolishly assumed Microsoft wouldn't bother pushing AI as hard onto Win10 since they're dumping it soon. At first I panicked and thought this was Recall, but I wouldn't be surprised if that's coming next

I absolutely recommend switching to Linux, it’s a truly liberating computing experience. However if you have to stick on windows and want to go LTSC, this document from massgrave makes it really easy and even provides the direct ISO download from Microsoft.
