I literally had to write a clock app on my own because Windows clock is pretty bad. I was thinking that they'll just replace the clock with Copilot eventually. Windows 11: "It's 11 pm sharp. I know that because I looked at the RTC." Windows 12: "It's 11 pm sharp. That's a phrase people like to say, apparently." ...Don't give Microsoft any ideas.

I finally had to move to Windows 11, and the UI is just so fucking broken. I did discover StartAllBack the other day which helped tremendously like who thought removing the ability to show seconds in the clock flyout was a good choice‽ pretty sure they're already using copilot in the start menu program search. I searched for "not" today because I wanted to open notepad. I got three results, none of which had "not" in their name. like jesus fucking christ that's so bad. one of them literally did not have any of the letters n o or t in the program name.

You know what that microsoft clock needs? To be rewritten in electron and support a web browser inside. That way, it can easily show ads to increase profits.
