In 10 years these copilot buttons on keyboards are going to look like Blockbuster buttons on older Roku remotes

Looking forward to the “co-pilot remapper” companion app that allows me to launch and hide whatever app I want with that button.

Looking at you Terminal!

I am like 97% sure it’s already just a macro key that simulates a press of win+ctrl+c or something like that that can be changed in the registry. They added a bunch of combos that open office apps and shit a while back.

But you can also just pin Terminal or any other app to your taskbar and then press win+[number desired pinned app is away from start button/search/task/whatever].

I’ll be damned. How long has that been a thing?!?

For sure it’s been an option since 7, but I feel like I remember there being a way to do something similar in XP.
