Posters are digging up even more wacky results from Google’s new AI Overview tool—with one search about cheese not sticking to pizza suggesting searchers should mix “⅛ cup of non-toxic glue to the sauce to give it more tackiness.” Everyone knows you should use duct tape instead
Yes, there is a person mentioned with a nasty word in their 'nym. Cover your eyes if that offends you.

Not just a name from computer history, Bell's work is as fresh as today's headlines about Microsoft's Copilot+ PC Replay feature. No joke here, just gratitude for his accomplishments, and sorrow for his passing. RIP, a legend

"Right now, NASA says Psyche is traveling at 23 miles per second, or about 84,000mph, and will eventually reach 124,000mph." Zoom!
Plus, "ionized xenon" just sounds so SF

Since the announcement of the RustRover Public Preview eight months ago, we’ve been hard at work shaping our vision for this feature-rich Rust IDE. Like their other IDEs, but this one could do with some sanding and new paint
There must be someone with a Land Rover that's already using the name RustRover?

Microsoft says that the Windows Update for Business, which helps in the deployment of such feature updates, now adds the option for admins to choose between whether that update is "required" or "optional" for their users. Gone force-installed updates, enter coerced updates
Windows corruption by any other name smells as sweet.

What if your clipboard were a place AI could work its magic? With the PowerToys Advanced Paste update, it’s all possible (for a small fee). I'm afraid I can't paste that, Dave

Are they messing with copy paste? Here is something that can break the internet as we know it...

To provide you with the most modern and efficient options, we are replacing VBScript with more advanced alternatives such as JavaScript and PowerShell. Find out what VBScript deprecation means for you and how you can get ready. What's the word for reading an obituary when you thought the feature was already dead?
There has to be one of those long German words for it?
That sound you hear is a couple of ASP classic websites about to go dark.

So will the Windows Scripting Host also be depreciated. It's the VBScript engine for Windows.
|
|
|
|
|
It would probably have to - it sounds like they're pulling the DLL, so that would kill all those.
They have been pushing WSH users for a while to go to PowerShell. That's a bumpy transition.

Quote: It's often embedded within HTML pages to add dynamic interactivity and functionality to web pages ...
Excuse me?! 
IIRC, that only ever worked in Internet Explorer. Given the limited reach, I don't think it was "often" used in HTML even back in the 90s. In the words of The Big Yin[^], I'd be "shocked and stunned, and more than a little amazed" if anyone was still using it in HTML today.

I was thinking/hoping that was a poor description of ASP Classic. But I might be giving them too much credit.
