@GossiTheDog Well, well. The ideal "productivity booster" for any business-related activity using a Windows PC, which Microslop has been pushing desperately and obsessively onto every Windows user on the planet, in fact even onto hardware, demanding a new key on keyboards from laptop-manufacturing partners, now turns out to be "for entertainment purposes only." Well, well, well, you don't say...
New Microslop motto to expect next ought to be therefore something like: "Entertainment, the new key to business productivity"

@GossiTheDog so, if my boss tells me to use copilot, can i refuse by pointing out that it's for entertainment purposes only and shouldn't be used for work?

@GossiTheDog I do feel like CEOs, CFOs, and heads of HR have been getting tremendous entertainment value out of copilot and workers' suffering, yes.

@Fedihacker @GossiTheDog guess I'm a nobody then, because I read the Register all the time. Bold of you to presume.
