OCR language /rant

OneNote has been out for nearly a quarter century and it still has dreadful locale support.

The only English language OCR it does is tagged as US English, which means all the British/Australian spellings are all marked as misspelled. Why it can't just follow the app/user preference and extract it as that English locale is beyond me.

The general lack of consistency of language features across the Office suite is frustrating.

Custom shortcuts workaround

Musescore doesn't currently allow for custom shortcuts or customisation of its toolbar.

Has anyone found a way to use third party automation tools to create such shortcuts?

For example I'd like to have a keyboard shortcut to do arpeggios. The best I can do now is to have a custom palette with a selection of my most-used told, but even then I'm still scrolling the palette pane constantly.

Reanimation short story with twist

Does anyone recall the SF short story (probably <1980) of the guy roused from suspended animation and hanging out with other (male and female) patients in a hospital, >!only to discover that they're all previous attempts to reanimate him<!?

I've asked Gemini AI but it keeps making things up.
