Windows Weekly 942: A World of Wonder

Listen Later

Microsoft finally kills Movies & TV show service in the Microsoft Store. This was the final vestigial minder of Zune that remained. There was Groove Video and Xbox Video, too. Microsoft previously killed eBook (2019) and music (2017) sales. At this point, you would have to be insane to buy content from Microsoft, sorry... but you can get to some of your content on other services via Movies Anywhere - and use the Movies & TV app for now in Windows, which is no longer bundled.

Windows 11

  • It's Week D and you can't tell your Copilot+ PC features from your Windows 11 features without a scorecard
  • A peek at next month's Patch Tuesday - Also, preview updates for 23H2, Windows 10
  • Copilot+ PCs only: Settings agent, Click to Do improvements, Photo relight in Photos app, Sticker generator and Object select in Paint
  • Everyone: Copilot Vision (U.S. only) in Copilot, Edge Game Assist, Quick Machine Recovery

  • Linux (sort of) crosses the 5 percent usage milestone

    • Surface/Copilot+ PC

    • Copilot+ PC is a failure as a brand because Microsoft focused on negligible on-device AI features
    • It should have pushed reliability, performance, efficiency and battery life
    • All Copilot+ PC features should come to at least those with GPUs, but really all customers
    • Microsoft failed at AI, and failed with consumers, and so now it's going to tell us what consumers want from AI - a comedy
    • Microsoft announces Surface Laptop for Business with 5G but the real "with" is Intel Inside
    • Intel layoffs are even worse than expected and more are coming
    • Microsoft has a problem and it starts with "C" and ends with "opilot"
    • Microsoft SharePoint has a notably bad security flaw
    • DuckDuckGo adds some neat customization features to Duck.ai and DuckDuckGo lets you hide all AI from search

      • Xbox and gaming

      • The Xbox platform unification continues: Xbox now testing cross-device play history - Not just console games on console, PC games on PC
      • Just kidding! The Outer Worlds will cost $69.99, not $79.99
