How long before a phrase is found that causes a predicted birthdate of 1970/01/01 ?

I'd imagine that at most [e: of their] stores the loss from theft is less than that of spoiled goods.

Can PowerToys remap it?

You can sort of remap it on windows, but it's somewhat limited in my experience. It shows up as a keyboard chord rather than a simple button press. I think it's LWin+LShift+F23. I ended up simply disabling it entirely on my gaming laptop. I've been meaning to see if it's easier to make it useful on KDE Plasma desktop but haven't yet (though I did remap the HP Omen button to pull down Yakuake instead).

I have one laptop with a Copilot key in my business. (I didn't even realize that when I bought it.) It takes the place of a modifier key, I think the menu key. Except it outputs a specific keypress (Ctrl+Shift+F23). So it can't be mapped to anything useful like a modifier key. But you can reassign the meaning of Ctrl+Shift+F23.

Yes, on my Thinkpad I could remap it with Powertoys. It looks like the sibling comments have had issues though.

For me, the Copilot key outputs the chord "Win (Left) + Shift (Left) + F23". I remapped it to "Ctrl (Right)" and it's functioning as it should.

Yep. I installed Claude as a PWA and used Powertoys to remap it to a command that launches it

Can it be pulled out?

“disclosing”

It was a smash & grab.

Or smash and delete. If you needed to infiltrate government to cover something up you wouldn’t go straight for it. You would infiltrate many points at once and create chaos and misdirection to obfuscate what you’re really doing.

Backdoors. US government privacy is now compromised at most levels.

Nitpick. Governments don't have privacy. They have opacity. Don't anthropomorphize governments, especially not to that extent.

Wikipedia doesn't list any honours awarded by the French Government. Nor do I see anything from ACM. Definitely overdue some official recognition.

Then your social media & newsfeeds are buzzing about salted coffee, and your work has mandated salt in the coffee, insisting that it increases productivity, and if you’re not partaking you might fail your next performance review.

Any press is good press, amirite?

100 fuses for $1, awesome! ;-)

Most people under the age of 50 will not understand this.

For me MIPS is the best ISA for “stream of consciousness” assembly, you can just write it then tidy up the register usage and pipelining after.

That would be the PS2’s VUs which had an upper and lower pipe and it was easier to write instructions for each in separate columns. Then in one SDK we received program called vcl which took a single list of instructions, doing all the pipelining for you, as well as optimizing loops and assigning registers automatically. It was a godsend.

I can't remember the details because we coded the SPU in C, but the PS3 SPUs had odd and even cycles with different access properties too.
