Win+d, I wasn't even aware there was an icon for it. If it's not the date, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, or VPN, I'm all keys

It's not really an icon so much as a tiny sliver of empty space at the far right of the start bar.

THANK YOU. I've been losing my goddamn mind in this thread, trying to figure out what everyone was talking about.

I'm over here just mashing Win+M (manager/boss key) wondering what that had to do with AI.

You can add it back in taskbar settings if you use it (and remove the copilot button if you hate it).

What's volume up/down?

[–] linearchaos@lemmy.world 2 points 9 months ago (1 children)

All my keyboards have Media keys for up, down and mute. The only reason I going to the tray volume if I need to turn the volume down on a single application that doesn't support volume up and down.

My mechanical keyboard doesn't have volume :(

You could do a pi pico project and make yourself a little three keyboard. :)
