I’m running fedora with gnome. Has anyone had any success remapping the copilot key to something useful with this combo?

    Wut but microsoft co-pilot its got all the features you need like watching your screen!! And AI productivity spyware.

    Me and a bud went to best buy recently and were looking at arm laptops, they look pretty rad. Minus the window stuff of course, myself and my friend pointed out how stupid the co-pilot key was. Like who is actually going to use it??? It just seems like a extra key im going to accidentally press, the equivalent of activating bixy!! NO BIXY NO STFU I DIDNT SUMMON YOU!!! I was turing on my phone!!!

    Also i gotta ask is your new laptop running arm assuming it has a co-pilot key? And if so how has it been? Ive been looking into an arm laptop, but its gota run linux well. I currently have a t440p running gentoo and librebooted but the battery only lasts about 3-5 hours depending on the websites and it would be amazing to get gentoo on snapdragon laptops the battery life would be sooooo much better!

      Oh it’s even dumber when you consider recent Windows updates.
      Before, Copilot was a part of the system in the form of a sidebar, then all of the sudden MSFT threw all that in the junk and replaced it with a PWA.
      Like, standard ass Edge PWA. You even see the hamburger menu and address on the top right.
      They didn’t even try to mask it better.

      Whole new key to launch a web shortcut. Lmao.
      Motherfuckers couldn’t build a native app to save their lives.

      Lol this is exactly me. My phone has a Bixby button on the side. It would be really cool if I could map the button to something but all I can do is turn it off

      It’s not a ARM laptop. It’s a dell inspiron 16 with a amd processor. Everything worked out of the box with fedora even the fingerprint reader so I"m pretty happy with it.
