  • The fact that they’re moving things over slowly instead of just fucking finishing it before they deploy it all at once.

    I’ve already been over this, as have MS many times.

    There’s no excuse to have it be half assed for so long especially considering “Settings” isn’t even an improvement.

    Making any change to legacy systems in Windows is a massive risk and requires a lot of work. Win32 for example isn’t good and should have been removed a loooooong time ago, but here we are still with it.

    Literally everything? You don’t have to click through 14 different menus to drill down to what you’re looking for.

    Got any examples of this? Settings are generally at most 3 levels deep from the main settings screen.

    Just look at Devices and Printers in Control Panel vs. Devices in settings

    What am I looking at? The “Bluetooth & Devices” settings page is good. What’s wrong with it?

    It runs like ass.

    It’s not even debatable though - it’s the most performant windows ever lol. It doesn’t “run like ass” unless you’re using “ass” hardware and/or software, at which point any prior windows would be running even worse.

    Bluesky is for people that want Twitter to go back to the “progressive” highly moderated/censored hugbox that it was before Musk bought it. They don’t want decentralisation or any of the supposed privacy that brings (which isnt actual privacy anyway), they just want old Twitter where everyone agrees with each other cause they ban everyone that doesn’t. Bluesky is that because it’s a literal Twitter clone from the guy who made Twitter.


  • For now

    Yes, for now. I even said as much, because Microsoft have made their plans on getting rid of it very clear and open. It’s slowly being replaced by moving everything to the settings app.

    The settings app is half-baked dog shit.

    You could say that it’s slowly getting all the features added to it, couldn’t you? What is “half baked dog shit” about it?

    It was certainly easier than the current state of things.

    What was easier to find in the control panel than it is in settings?

    Sure assuming the AI understands your request and the setting you want hasn’t been removed because they wanted to put everything in the settings app

    You think that the AI would not have access and knowledge of the settings app? They made no mention of the AI Agents only being able to make changes in the control panel.

    and it’s not running in the background bogging down your system all the time

    You’ve never actually used windows 11, have you?


  • If you couldnt find it in the control panel before, you sure as shit cant find it now.

    Oh you’ve tried this new AI Agent that can change the settings for you, have you?

    Bullshit to all those points.

    Which points are “bullshit”? That they’re slowly moving everything out of the control panel to the settings app? This is literally what they’ve been telling us they’re doing, and what we’ve seen them do.

    That they still have the control panel? Nope, not bullshit, it’s still there.

    That being able to ask Copilot to change a setting would be helpful? How is that bullshit?

    I do NOT need voice activation

    Good thing it’s not MANDATORY then. You can keep using your mouse and keyboard. Also you don’t have to use your VOICE for copilot - it’s much easier to use the mouse and keyboard. That’s how most people use it.

    Also, they’ve been “slowly” transitioning for over two years, wtf? We waiting for the next OS at this point?

    This stuff takes time unfortunately. If they change everything at once they get even more anger and pushback. This way it’s just a slow and easy move away from the control panel - 1 thing here, 2 things there, and before you know it hey look! Everything is in the settings app now!

    Oh good mum joke big fella! So clever and badarse.
