Microsoft's newly published support document (found by Windows Central) is significant in that Microsoft is no longer selling video content via the Microsoft Store. It follows Microsoft's decision to stop selling music as part of its Groove Music services, which was shuttered in 2017.
But Microsoft's decision to stop providing movies and TV shows to rent or buy probably should be met with a shrug. Several streaming movie services already show movies just weeks after they're released in the box office, with rumors that the recent Superman release might be opened to streaming services just 45 days after first appearing in movie theaters. Microsoft doesn't offer a streaming service; instead, it provides direct sales and rentals to consumers. Plenty of services already do that.
So what will happen to movies and TV shows that you've already purchased? For now, they'll remain on Microsoft's servers. Microsoft's support document indicates that you'll be able to continue playing them

When generating an image with ChatGPT, you will soon be able to select "Save without watermark" in the menu behind the three dots in the top-right corner of the app. Obviously, this feature would be rather useless if images weren't going to be watermarked.
Will all users be able to save images without watermarks? We don't know yet. Android Authority speculates that the feature may sit behind a paywall and only be available to paid ChatGPT subscribers.
None of this has been announced or confirmed by OpenAI as of this writing, and it's possible this feature won't make it through to the stable release versions of ChatGPT at all. We'll have to wait and see.

Being able to condense days of growth into a short video that I could watch in just a minute seemed like magic to me. What's more, it opened my mind to something about plants that you just can't see every day — the fact that they're not just inanimate things. They can move just like us (albeit a lot more slowly).
The great thing about making a time lapse video these days is you don't need a studio or specialist equipment to pull it off. It can be done with a mobile phone and / or a free app in Windows.
So, if you're into a hobby that lends itself well to a time lapse (and that can be almost anything), why not make a time lapse video? Here are some ideas for inspiration:
A flower bud opening
An artist painting
Traffic moving on the street
Your own hair growing out after a snip
Tip: Slow moving things like snails and clouds make excellent subjects but require a little more time to shoot.
What to do:
One of the simplest ways to create a time lapse video is with an app called Time Lapse Creator. It gives you the option of either uploading images or videos, or shooting a video directly via the app itself.
For the purposes of this "how to," I've assumed that you've already shot your pictures, uploaded them to your PC, and stored them in a folder. Now you can do the following:
Download and install the free app Time Lapse Creator.
Select either Import Folder or Import Files to sel
