Look Microsoft, I looked up to you guys for almost a decade now...

But please hear me out when I say this...

We don't need this much AI everywhere. Investing over $80 billion for AI development is insane.


Most of your videos on YouTube and Instagram are all just promoting Copilot on Windows, and they're mostly just stupid.

The problem is that nobody is going out of their way to use Copilot that much to do something as simple as changing freaking text scaling for accessibility.

We have handled and get real help on stuff like this (e.g. looking up webpage instructions) ourselves without problem and it's been like that for the past several years before AI rolled out in 2022.

"Hey Copilot, my grandma can't read the text. How do you increase the text? ... Okay, in settings? ... Okay, now where should I click next? ... In display settings? ... Okay, what size should I cha-"

Okay, that's cool but couldn't you just use your BRAIN and READ instead of relying on AI just to change the text scaling? Holy shoot.

You know, I really don't like the way people post misleading comments that roasts Microsoft, but I also don't like the way Microsoft is heading towards with their stuff, and not many people is going to like it, either.

You've created revolutionary products like Office. What happened? Go back and start working on things that actually matters for once.

If you can't change within a few months or years, then...

I don't even know what to say anymore.

If I'm the CEO of Microsoft, I would stop the vast majority of the AI production and put our resources towards more important things, like eliminating most third-party ads and adding more customizability.

If someone was able to modify Windows, they would actually make it great for others just as much as Linux does.

I was looking for good video editors other than Clipchamp as a Windows alternative to VN for my iOS devices and my Mac, and I came across this.

I was initially interested, until I realized really basic features, even 60 FPS, were locked behind a paywall.

Really glad changes like this are rolling out.

Opening Microsoft Word now has this new...banner...

Really shows how they love AI this much; they still believe it's a "foundational" technology and it positively impacts the world.

I need @Danyo_ to send an assassin to teach them a lesson or something.

Finally got it. The ROG Raikiri II Xbox controller. Now it matches with my Z13.

I discovered this from an unboxing YouTube video.

I really love the lights and the many options I have configure this with Armoury Crate. It feels super nice, too.

I just recently discovered MistWarp, which is a fork of TurboWarp that really has very good amount of additional options and customization.

UI changes is something I always wanted because I grew tired of Scratch's vanilla UI designs.

Also yeah, new scene.

There may be finally some hope for Windows as the backlash from users and even enterprise businesses were strong enough.

I also heard they are probably redirecting their engineers to actually fixing real issues.

Rare W of Microsoft.

Watermarks is something I always do and encourage. Even if I post some AI images here before, I do that very rarely.

This is just embarrassing. Only 2 or maybe 3 brand new IPs by the 9th generation and then this.

Good thing I got my PS5 Pro over a year ago, and considering how careful I am with my devices, it can last years or even decades.

Xbox CEO is being replaced by this woman.

Buuuuuttt, I do have some skepticism because she was previously a president of CoreAI of Microsoft with absolutely no gaming background.

And yet, in her note, she said she has no tolerance to AI slop.

Pretty strange that some portions of the game have no voice acting to some extent.

I'm 90% sure other people skip a lot of dialogues because of how unfathomably HUGE this game is.
