Politics. Gotta ensure that utopia survives and expands

Doubt microsoft cares much about copilot. It’s like bing to them. Just have a foot in that boat.

I close the lid and don’t give a damn what happens.

This is good actually, “privacy sandbox” is like baked in ad targeting service. Better to just block third party cookies. I’ve only needed third party cookies for microsoft 365 stuff.

In Tamil calendar it is the year 5126. https://www.drikpanchang.com/tamil/tamil-month-panchangam.html

Indian subcontinent has several calendars, followed today, in different parts. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indian_New_Year's_days

Axiomatically, I want best person for a given job and a level playing field for all. This is the kind of society I want to build.

Say there is universal basic income or universal basic services. Yay, now anyone can get free education or wait until they get job they aspire too, etc.
