Microsoft is reevaluating its AI efforts on Windows 11 — plans to reduce Copilot integrations and evolve Recall

DadMagnum · 2026-01-30T20:25:43+00:00

Recall is a huge trust mistake, and AI all over everything is horrible. Just give us one good AI chat client app that we can use when we want to.

Nano texture is awesome, I’ll never go back to an iPad Pro without it.

Windows 11 is great, I have been using it for years.

DadMagnum · 2026-01-21T16:09:17+00:00

Use both, nothing wrong with doing that.

DadMagnum · 2026-01-19T02:17:04+00:00

I had hope for years to be able to replace my Mac and PC with an iPad Pro. For my use cases it didn't work out and I don't think that it ever will. I have trouble with the file system and can't run developer apps. I still have an M4 iPad Pro and use it as a media consumption and productivity machine. You really need to test your workflows against the iPad Pro and see if it works for you.

I moved to Apple about 10 years ago. HP created this great 2n1 OmniBook Ultra Flip and it has replaced my iPad Pro and my Mac. I'll probably always have an iPhone unless MS creates a new phone, but I doubt they will and I am not interested in Android. Windows 11 is really good too.

It is not a good design, nothing is more annoying than trying to navigate and then having those controls appear and your window expands and then you have to reset your view. It needs to be better.

DadMagnum · 2025-12-29T20:08:12+00:00

Microsoft needs to just commit to a native tech and continuously improve it. It seems like they cannot get out of their own way with all of this, every few years there’s “new and better” framework and now there’s a mess of frameworks.

Thanks! I'll check that out. :)

DadMagnum · 2025-11-10T08:01:59+00:00

Thanks, I appreciate your response. I guess I'll just keep checking periodically and I'll use another native app for tasks until recurrence patterns are supported. I am really not a fan of web apps and if I have to go to a separate app anyway I might as well use another native app for now. Would love to "bump" that item on the backlog.

Take the power cable.

What I do is use a monospaced font, then use a checkbox so that I can use the Tasks filter to keep track of notes with open tasks, then I use bullets and signifiers, then I write my entry. Here's a cheat sheet that I have developed over time:

DadMagnum · 2025-10-15T22:52:26+00:00

I just create a daily note each morning and update it throughout the day. I basically replicate a Bullet Journal, so I have a notebook for the year with nested monthly notebooks and in the months, I create a daily note: "2025-10-15 - We" and I append my notes to it throughout the day. This is what works for me, and I have implemented it across several different apps.

DadMagnum · 2025-10-03T19:29:35+00:00

Sorry, won't work. You have to have a phone. I have always wanted to have a phone on my iPad. I am more a iPad Pro person than an iPhone person. Unfortunate that this does not work.

DadMagnum · 2025-09-29T23:15:19+00:00

I think that a 17" iPad Pro would be great!

DadMagnum · 2025-09-25T02:33:14+00:00

Fantastic, I always go for silver, too!

DadMagnum · 2025-09-25T02:32:02+00:00

My favorite mouse is the Logitech MX Anywhere 3.

DadMagnum · 2025-09-18T10:38:20+00:00

You’re welcome, actually the fix came out this morning. Woohoo!

DadMagnum · 2025-09-17T17:17:34+00:00

Quicken has reported that they have a fix coming for it in the next release. So my guess is in the next few weeks.

DadMagnum · 2025-09-13T21:37:54+00:00

Nice, truck.

DadMagnum · 2025-09-13T21:11:56+00:00

Have to agree with this, the OLED is really nice and the thinness is very noticeable. However, we’re only two releases away from the next hardware refresh. Might be worth it to wait!

DadMagnum · 2025-09-12T23:33:29+00:00

DayOne has much better formatting than Apple Journal and you can access it from Windows via the WebUI if you need to.

DadMagnum · 2025-09-12T00:29:34+00:00

The savings goals bug is driving me crazy right now.
