The Windows 11 ISO leak was, of course, the news of the week. Thanks to it, we can get an idea of what the “new Windows” will be like, and the radical change that its interface will have. But there is life beyond this operating system, and we must also talk about other relevant news that has happened throughout the day and that, of course, cannot be forgotten.
Microsoft keeps playing with Clippy
Clippy has been a reference for many users. Although he was only 4 years with us (during the Office XP era), Microsoft’s assistant managed to carve a hole in our hearts. However, the company erased all traces of this personal assistant to the point of not using it in any other program or any other version of the office suite.
However, like us, Microsoft has not forgotten about this assistant either. From time to time, the company jokes with him, giving us false hope that one day we will see him again. Although it is most likely not so.
One of the last jokes of the company involves taking Clippy to the famous canvas “Sunday Afternoon on the Island of La Grande Jatte.” Curious how to show us that this iconic character is still alive. Would it be museum-worthy?
They get Doom to work in Windows 11
Doom is a classic game that never goes out of style. And not because it has thousands of players a day, but because they have managed to make it work, literally, on any device. From calculators to refrigerators, washing machines, televisions, Casio watches… There is literally not a single electronic device that has not executed the lines of this game.
Of course, not even 24 hours have passed and the usual jokes have already appeared. A reddit user , talking about Windows 11, asks: Am I the first to run Doom?
The answer is yes, congratulations.
