Notepad has changed a lot lately after staying pretty much the same for over 30 years. This simple Windows text editor could hardly do anything except open and save text files until recently. Back in 2022, Microsoft finally added tabs, allowing users to work with several documents at the same time. They also switched Notepad from the old Win32 system to the newer UWP format.
Last year, Microsoft upgraded all Windows accessories, including Notepad spelling and grammar checks. Their newest addition puts Copilot right inside Notepad. You can find a special Copilot button on the main toolbar. Press it, and you'll see choices for improving text—you can rewrite everything, make text longer or shorter, change how it sounds, or even fix up the...
Nobody expects many people to join the protests called for today. The man behind them used to belong to the Zimbabwe War Veterans group and served in the Zanu PF party leadership. Both groups turned down his ideas, leaving him without much support.
Most citizens hadn't heard his name before he started posting online. The social media accounts cheering him on look fishy. Many come from unknown groups that may not exist. These "organizations" often turn out to be just a few buddies or even one person making fake accounts.
Past events show that nothing big will happen today. No major opposition leaders back these protests, and most Zimbabweans avoid violent street actions. Stories saying officials might block downtown areas aren't true...

Michael Nuwagira Kaguta, known by most people as Toyota, wants Brig. Gen. Emmanuel Rwashande to replace Theodore Ssekikubo as Lwemiyaga County's representative in Parliament. Toyota happens to be President Museveni's brother, which adds weight to his political backing. He stood before crowds at a recent rally and declared he would block Ssekikubo from winning another term. The race already looks like it will become intense.
Toyota attacked Ssekikubo directly during his speech. "Ssekikuubo has lied for a very long time. The time for his lies is over," he told the audience. He claimed the current representative failed to help the area progress. Toyota dismissed the idea that Ssekikubo cannot be beaten, calling it outdated thinking. He...

Uganda just gave UNOC a big chunk of the new oil deal. The national company will control 40 percent of the refinery project. Alpha MBM Investments from UAE signed papers for the other 60 percent. The signing happened on March 29 at the President's house in Entebbe.
President Museveni watched as officials put pen to paper. This agreement follows earlier talks that began in December last year. The real work started mid-January when teams hammered out details. Construction plans include a huge oil plant that handles 60,000 barrels daily.
The project brings more than just a refinery to Hoima District. Workers will build a modern storage area in the Mpigi District. A long pipeline stretching 212 kilometers will connect these sites. They'll...
Uganda might pull its army out of Lubero in Congo. Army leaders want to chase ADF fighters who ran away to North Kivu and Ituri provinces instead. Colonel Chris Magezi told reporters about these plans last Sunday. He heads public relations for the Ugandan military right.
The army needs to move because beaten ADF groups keep running deeper into Congo when Uganda and Congo soldiers attack them. The military first put troops in Bunia, Mahagi, and Fataki earlier this year to block escaping fighters. But these bad guys spread across a huge area, making it hard to catch them all. Uganda may need extra soldiers to cover more ground.
Commanders will decide soon whether to leave Lubero completely. The ADF began as a Ugandan rebel group but...
