Windows 10 update just reinvented copy and paste for millions of users

This Windows 10 update could change how you use your PC

The copy-and-paste function in Windows 10 is set to change in a huge way with the operating system’s next update.
Windows Latest reported that with Windows 10 Build 20185, Microsoft is reworking the Clipboard function — which records copied text and images — to add a new panel that allows emojis, GIFs and other content to be inserted into documents, emails and messages.  
10 update just reinvented copy and paste for millions of users
The new Clipboard panel, which will still be accessed by pressing the Windows key and V, contains an emoji section that provides access to a whole suite of emojis, as well as a landing page containing those you’ve most recently used. It also has a GIF section that serves up trending GIFs and a search function so you can dig around the perfect GIF to spam on Slack.

The latest Windows 10 build also adds in a Clipboard history function, which unsurprisingly provides a snapshot of the recent content you have copied and pasted. Such an option does exist in the current iteration of Clipboard, but it’s somewhat limited, as it can only record up to 25 text entries. The new history function removes that limit and also supports other HTML content and images, rather than just text. 
A major impact for everyday tasks
Much like Microsoft’s redesign of the Windows 10 Start menu, this is but a small change that could have a rather significant impact by making day-to-day work in Windows that much easier. And easier processes means people can get stuff done a lot faster and more efficiently. 
Furthermore, richer copy-and-paste functions will certainly make it easier to shift information and images about, and allow you to track things like copied links or snippets of text, which can so easily go missing in everyday computer use. 
The new Clipboard was created for use in Windows 10X, Microsoft’s version of Windows that’s being designed to work across dual-display touchscreen devices like the Surface Neo. But Windows 10X development has seemingly slowed, and it looks like Microsoft is set to bring some of its features to the full version of Windows 10 in the near future. 

Currently, Windows 10 Build 20185 is only available to members of the Windows Insider program. But a lot of the changes made in this test environment tend to make it over to the full release of Windows 10, so we’re expecting the new Clipboard to come sooner than later to shake up how we copy-and-paste forever.

    I rarely share my story with people, not only because it put me at the lowest point ever but because it made me a person of ridicule among family and friends. I put all I had into Binary Options ($100,000) after hearing great testimonies about this new investment

    strategy. I was made to believe my investment would triple, it started good and I got returns (not up to what I had invested). Gathered more and involved a couple family members, but I didn't know I was setting myself up for the kill, in less than no time all we had put ($300,000) was gone. It almost seem I had set them up, they came at me strong and hard. After searching and looking for how to make those scums pay back, I got introduced to (Troyhermes8@gmail.com) He helped recover about 90% of my lost funds within a month.

New ATM's: withdraw money with veins in your finger

New cash machines: withdraw money with veins in your finger Cash machine technology that reads the pattern of finger veins is already available in Japan and Poland   By Telegraph Reporters 6:59PM BST 15 May 2014 Cash machines could soon be installed with devices that identify customers by reading the veins in their fingers. The technology is already being rolled out in Poland, where 1,730 cash machines will this year be installed with readers, negating the need for a debit card and Pin. Developed by Hitachi, the Japanese electronics firm, the machines read the patterns of the veins just below the surface of the skin on your finger using infra-red sensors. The light is partially absorbed by haemoglobin in the veins to capture a unique finger vein pattern profile, which is matched to a profile. The technology is used by Japanese banks and also in Turkey, offering “groundbreaking levels of accuracy and speed of authentication”, Hitachi said, which in t...

Will AI replace doctors who read X-rays, or just make them better than ever?

Will AI replace doctors who read X-rays, or just make them better than ever? As AI moves into medicine, perhaps no one has more to gain or lose than radiologists, the doctors who review medical scans for signs of cancer and other diseases By MATTHEW PERRONE AP Health Writer May 14, 2024, 9:16 AM ET WASHINGTON -- How good would an algorithm have to be to take over your job? It’s a new question for many workers amid the rise of ChatGPT and other AI programs that can hold conversations, write stories and even generate songs and images within seconds. For doctors who review scans to spot cancer and other diseases, however, AI has loomed for about a decade as more algorithms promise to improve accuracy, speed up work and, in some cases, take over entire parts of the job. Predictions have ranged from doomsday scenarios in which AI fully replaces radiologists, to sunny futures in which it frees them to focus on the most rewarding aspects of their work. That tension reflects how AI is rollin...

The City That’s Trying to Replace Politicians With Computers (It’s Working)

The City That’s Trying to Replace Politicians With Computers (It’s Working) After sneaking his AI-written water bill into law, Ramiro Rosário says government press-release writers could go, too By Samantha Pearson and Luciana Magalhaes Dec. 22, 2023 8:58 am ET PORTO ALEGRE, Brazil — In a country with a history of corruption and government inefficiency, Councilman Ramiro Rosário has come up with what he believes is a winning strategy to improve the work of politicians: replace them with computers. The 37-year-old legislator in Brazil’s southern city of Porto Alegre passed the country’s first law in November that was written entirely by ChatGPT, the artificial-intelligence chatbot developed by the San Francisco startup OpenAI. The law itself was purposefully boring—a proposal to stop the local water company from charging residents for new water meters when they were stolen from their front yards. It would easily pass, calculated Rosário. One recent day, donning jeans and sneakers...
