Broken windows hello
  • You may have tried this already, but Microsoft does have a specific troubleshooter for Windows Hello via the Get Help app and at https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/troubleshoot-problems-with-windows-hello-bf68539e-e95e-48b6-a6cb-455649db3887. Though if all else fails, you could also try uninstalling and then re-installing the "Facial Recognition (Windows Hello)" feature via Settings > Optional Features and see if that helps any or not.

    CES 2024: Live updates from Hyundai, Samsung, Kia and Sony's big shows
  • Haven't had a ton of free time today to look over everything yet, but the Samsung display stuff I saw was pretty neat. Especially the transparent display. Lenovo also announced a neat 2-in-1 PC/tablet that runs both Windows and Android in their respective modes.

    Free games? In THIS economy? Well, in exchange for your eyeballs at least. (Figuratively, not literally... although don't give them ideas.)

    Google Pixel Update - Dec 2023 - Google Pixel Community
  • I haven't heard anything about any delays for any supported models, they are however gradually rolling out the update over the next week, so it won't be available for everyone at the same time.

  • Microsoft is bringing 'OCR' text recognition to Windows 11's Snipping Tool
  • Oh yeah, absolutely. I think there are plenty of privacy concerns that should be addressed. But I don’t know whether the OCR is processed locally or not. I know the plan for Windows 12 at least is to complete a good amount of the intelligence processing on-device, though that is reliant on specific hardware. And I don’t know how or whether these new features factor into that or not.

  • Microsoft is bringing 'OCR' text recognition to Windows 11's Snipping Tool
  • I'm not quite sure. I don't believe Microsoft has detailed exactly how it works yet. Though at the very least, it being baked-in to the Snipping Tool makes it more convenient for the average user.

  • Marvel Studios’ Loki Season 2 | October 6 on Disney+
  • Yeah, I certainly hope not. I'm fairly confident the two storylines will stay independent from one another.

  • @highhomes1994 I hadn't noticed it before, but I just checked and yeah it shows the same thing for me. I wonder what's going on with that. 🤔

  • What do you do personally to find happiness in your everyday life?
  • There are a few different things I try to do each day to find little moments of happiness here and there. Anything, no matter how small, can have a bigger impact on our mental health than we may initially think. When I have the time, I like to sit down and do a little bit of coding, or do some design work for a new project I want to start (even though there's a high chance I'll move on from it soon 😅). Also getting into a good book is always nice, spending time hiking or just going to a park somewhere, or even a little DIY craft project can be a lot of fun. But when I'm a little busier even little things like music, or journaling, or even a drink I really enjoy can all go a long way in boosting my mood.

  • Seizing/Claiming inactive magazines?
  • I agree 100%. It definitely isn't a big problem yet (as far as I'm aware at least), but it's only a matter of time until it becomes one.
