Microsoft announces new 'Copilot Mode' for Microsoft Edge, something which I've shared before via Edge flags, but is now available to everyone.

Details: www.windowscentral.com/microsoft/mi...
Microsoft revolutionizes Edge as an AI-powered web browser with new experimental 'Copilot Mode' — but it won't be free forever
Copilot Mode in Microsoft Edge is a new experimental feature that transforms the browser into an agentic AI experience, but it's only free for a limited time.

I absolutely dislike how its slowely becoming more and more controversial saying things like "I accept trans people", things that actually should be normal human behaviour🙁

This is not political, this is human!

Great explanation here of what's the big deal with this quantum computing announcement
marypcbuk.bsky.social Mary Branscombe @marypcbuk.bsky.social · Feb 19
Microsoft's big quantum gamble pays off: they were harder to build (and about as hard to understand!) but Microsoft's topological qubits are more effective, easier to control - and will probably help design their own replacements.
Microsoft Makes Quantum Computing Breakthrough With New Chip
Microsoft’s breakthrough with the first topological qubits and its own quantum chip, Majorana 1, could outpace Google’s brute force approach.

Microsoft is Adding new flow actions to interact with Microsoft Access.

#mvpbuzz
Power Automate – Try new actions for Office Access We are introducing an Access automation feature for Power Automate Desktop. It offers dedicated actions to simplify setting up Access DB automations by eliminating the need for UI workarounds. This feature is now fully available. How does this affect me? The Access automation feature allows makers to interact with locally stored Access databases. Makers can create an Access instance using the 'Launch Access' action. This instance serves as the input parameter for the rest of the actions, allowing makers to perform the following actions on the desired Access database: Launch Access Close Access Read Access table Run Access query Run Access macro What action do I need to take? This message is for awareness and no action is required. Do you like this change?
