Brad LinderMicrosoft's Recall tool begins rolling out to supported Copilot+ PCs (with 40+ TOPS NPUs). It's now an opt-in feature so you can ignore it. Other updates include contextual Windows search and Click to Do. <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/Windows" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Windows</a> <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/CopilotPlus" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#CopilotPlus</a> <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/WindowsRecall" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#WindowsRecall</a> <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/Microsoft" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Microsoft</a> <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/AI" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#AI</a> <a href="https://blogs.windows.com/windowsexperience/2025/04/25/copilot-pcs-are-the-most-performant-windows-pcs-ever-built-now-with-more-ai-features-that-empower-you-every-day/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://blogs.windows.com/windowsexperience/2025/04/25/copilot-pcs-are-the-most-performant-windows-pcs-ever-built-now-with-more-ai-features-that-empower-you-every-day/</a>

Brad LinderMicrosoft is pulling the plug on the Windows Maps app. It'll be removed from the Microsoft Store in July, but first MS will push a final update "that makes it nonfunctional." Bing Maps on the web will continue to be available. <a href="https://www.neowin.net/news/microsoft-kills-windows-maps-app/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://www.neowin.net/news/microsoft-kills-windows-maps-app/</a> <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/Windows" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Windows</a> <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/Microsoft" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Microsoft</a> <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/WindowsMaps" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#WindowsMaps</a>

PhilSo currently I'm hosting <code>gptel-org-tools</code> on my own forge... <a href="https://git.bajsicki.com/phil/gptel-org-tools" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://git.bajsicki.com/phil/gptel-org-tools</a> I can't seem to find a good way for people to create issues. I thought that creating issues via email was a thing with Forgejo, but it appears not. So here's a poll. Despite my hatred of Microsoft, is it for the best to move the repo to GitHub? Or is there some way to federate with GitHub users so I don't need to open public sign-ups on my git? I'm not exactly clear on what the move is here. <a href="https://fed.bajsicki.com/tags/Emacs" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Emacs</a> <a href="https://fed.bajsicki.com/tags/gptel" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#gptel</a> <a href="https://fed.bajsicki.com/tags/gitforge" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#gitforge</a> <a href="https://fed.bajsicki.com/tags/forgejo" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#forgejo</a> <a href="https://fed.bajsicki.com/tags/github" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#github</a> <a href="https://fed.bajsicki.com/tags/microsoft" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#microsoft</a> <a href="https://fed.bajsicki.com/tags/foss" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#foss</a>

Why the fuck would I want this? I already have the email open. I guess some people might have a use for it (I can't imagine why). Fine. Make that a setting that they can turn on. Don't make me search for how to turn that annoying shit off. It's like software product managers are actively looking for ways to piss me off.

Mr Tech KingMicrosoft sneakily used generative AI in a Surface ad released months ago, and almost no one noticed. It blended AI visuals (for simple shots) with real footage, reportedly saving 90% on time/cost.
