fun fact, if you've ever accidentally clicked the "enable" button on copilot because you're a dumbass who can't read, you get a shitton of more settings, most of which are locked to "enabled".
Even more fun fact, if you never clicked the "enable" button on Copilot, most of those settings are locked to "enabled" anyway.
yeah you just can't see them. fun!
Yes I just found that this morning. Time to seriously look at the GitHub alternatives.
I hear good things about Codeberg
Also another setting under CoPilot>Coding Agent - turn off for All Repositories - mine was set to On.
Even with that setting on, nothing would be done unless you explicitly assign a Github task to Copilot. Even then, the worst thing that would happen is you'd get a pull request at some point if you somehow accidentally assigned a task to Copilot.
Got it. I didn't read too far in it. I saw the option to turn something copilot-related off, so I took it!
Thanks for providing an explanation.
...and they want to train the idiot machine on this dumbass' terrible self-taught python code.
i will not dispute the dumbass part but i have been programming professionally in python for 16 years. doesn't mean my code is any good, of course.
