I am posting this because I am ashamed I just found out it existed, and I thought I would subject the rest of my Beehaw friends to the same experience! 😁

The instructions are super simple, Windows Key + . (period) opens up a little overlay which contains Emojis, GIFs, Clipboard, and some other stuff I'm not sure is useful.

Ill end this post with a question for you all:

-What was something you learned about technology FAR later than you SHOULD have?

If I type :hand then [Win+;] I expect the hand emoji section to be shown, or at least the search box to be auto-filled.
I don't want to touch the mouse to select an emoji, I just type, select (with keyboard) and go on with my writing.
Changing focus to type a search term in a small pupup is non productive.

I rechecked just now, the search field is gone in Win11, even more useless now... M$ is not even trying, too focused on adding spyware lol

A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.
