Hi I'm Dana, I mostly just tool around with friends, play RPGs, and listen to podcasts, but I've also been known to make podcasts at SuperIdols! RPG and I've written a couple of short rpgs at my itch page and on twitter.

tbh I'm extremely skeptical that the "new AI key" microsoft is "introducing" is actually anything at all. 99/100 chance says that rather than change the hardware spec at all they're just going to software remap the generic "menu key" to do something different when you press the button

Yeah I mean this sounds a lot like their "office hotkey" on various laptops and keyboards that actually just sends alt+shift+ctrl+win, aka the "hyper" key on custom keyboard layouts. Which of course became a PITA to people already using that modifier combination on Windows.

I feel like the funny thing here is that 90% of smaller keyboards leave off the menu key entirely anyway. MS picked the key no one likes or uses and is replacing it with a new key no one likes or uses

I strongly suspect they'll rebrand the menu key but also force laptop vendors to screen print the stupid copilot logo on that key

and then change the logo in six months so those keyboards roll off the assembly line proper dated
