Whoever decided to give it a dedicated keybinding is insane
That actually exists? Mental
Press Ctrl + Shift + Alt + Win + L in Windows for Linkedin
This is by default, and I don't think there's an easy way to turn it off.
Yeah, I've typed that so many times by accident...
Wtf wild, just tried it. Thanks, I'll never use this.
LinkedIn - CTRL + SHIFT + ALT + WIN + L Word - CTRL + SHIFT + ALT + WIN + W Excel - CTRL + SHIFT + ALT + WIN + X PowerPoint - CTRL + SHIFT + ALT + WIN + P Outlook - CTRL + SHIFT + ALT + WIN + O Microsoft Teams - CTRL + SHIFT + ALT + WIN + T OneDrive - CTRL + SHIFT + ALT + WIN + D OneNote - CTRL + SHIFT + ALT + WIN + N Yammer - CTRL + SHIFT + ALT + WIN + YYou better have all five fingers these days...
On the space cadet keyboard, it was apparently considered valid form to complete complex key chords with your nose.
Feels like Emacs
wtf is a yammer?
I think it's like an internal social media for your Office 365 group. We have Yammer at work but I have never opened it.
...i thought that was teams?..
Teams is like a Discord replacement. Yammer is probably like a Facebook/Twitter replacement.
Who the hell uses social media while at work that's limited to your work I wonder.
I have heard people at my work actually using it. I was thinking of starting posting about Linux there, just for the troll, as the company seems to like/trust Microsoft a bit too much.
Holy shit, this is not even a joke
Someone built a shortcut to a job hunting site into the OS itself. Someone who works on the OS and for the company that made the OS. I can't think of any greater advertisement that working for Microsoft is awful than the cry for help that is building a permanent link to a job hunting website.
I mean Microsoft owns the job hunting website lol
These ctrl shift alt win shortcuts are not meant to be doable manually, they're for dedicated buttons on certain keyboards. A manufacturer wanted a linked in button so Microsoft made that shortcut. However, the fact that they are baked in instead of somehow detecting if a keyboard needs that button in a different way is a little strange. It's like how the new copilot button uses a key combo with an F key higher than 12
Keyboards with physical F keys higher than 12 absolutely do exist tho.
This one's ancient, but I also have a slightly less old apple wireless keyboard that goes up to F19. IIRC goes up to a theoretical maximum of F64, but don't quote me on that.
I'm aware. But the point is that these shortcuts are meant to be awkward to the point of almost impossibility to do on a normal keyboard.
