Just got a weird conversation with @MSFTCopilot about #EaseOfAccess. I'll ping @JenMsft on this one, because it's linked to #Windows11 and how it's missing on an important feature that MSFT could offer thanks to Azure TTS technology. Valuable answers :)

@alphathinktink @MSFTEnable These are all still available in the Start menu in Windows 11, they're just under a folder named Accessibility instead of Ease of Access. I hope this helps a little!

@MSFTEnable Why did you remove "Windows Ease of Access" from the start menu in Windows 11? Why do I have to be forced to memorize hidden keyboard combinations to use the accessibility features in Windows 11 that are difficult to access already if you're disabled.

@pieeatingchamp @Windows Hi there, we've not seen reports of this before in feedback for Windows 11. Can you please file feedback under Desktop environment > Start menu in the Feedback Hub for us to look at?

Why does @Windows 11 duplicate pinned items on the Start Menu? I didn't even pin them.

@ambernoelle @jdsctt Oh no, I looked at all the hands. They’re all nightmare worthy. And isn’t it she supposed to be taking a selfie in the first? She has another right hand with red nail polish in shot right behind it…

The conversations about mermaids not being Black is making me think about the Mami Wata deity which often takes the form of a mermaid in many west and central African religions. Black mermaids have long been a fixture in many African cosmologies.

ONE OF THE DEFINITIONS OF 'LITERALLY' IS "IN EFFECT, VIRTUALLY—USED IN AN EXAGGERATED WAY TO EMPHASIZE A STATEMENT OR DESCRIPTION." SOME PEOPLE GET MAD IF YOU USE IT THIS WAY BECAUSE IT ISN'T THE WORD'S PRIMARY MEANING, BUT THIS SENSE OF 'LITERALLY' HAS BEEN USED FOR 250 YEARS SO

Spread the love with my personal favorite #Windows11 key command! Use Win + (.) to open the ever-handy emoji picker anytime. 😍🥰
