Microsoft Urgently Needs Distraction: There's No "Next XBox", But There's a New Boot Screen (Like 'Dark Mode', a Feature That Can be Implemented in Mere Minutes/Hours)
Anything to distract from XBox fiasco; WSJ published a Microsoft puff piece about Sharma during the weekend and slopfarms repeated it
Last month: There's No "Next XBox"
Is this what Microsoft meant by XBox re-BOOT? Mindless bells and whistles? Another "boot screen"?
I've not rebooted my laptop since 2023 and here they are making a reboot seem like a feature because of some picture/animation. Amid mass layoffs (euphemised as "restructuring") all they have to show is: 1) frequent downtime; 2) restrictions (time) on "Live" or "Game Pass"; 3) choice between two animations when rebooting.
Wow, the future sure seems promising!
Slow down, Microsoft! Too much INNOVA~1!!! █
