Discord/Reddit moderators living up to their obnoxious stereotype as usual.

Spamming "microslop" is obnoxious, filtering out childish behaviour is not obnoxious.

But if you don't want childish behaviour, Discord is an ... interesting choice.

Don’t they have better things to do? Maybe vibecode a taskbar that moves when you try to move away the mouse over it or perhaps a windows 12 installation procedure that requires a fecal sample and iris scan?

I can really see them ship the first, that's at the same time very funny, and quite sad.

first one is a really slick tooltip ui to make sure people read tooltips. hover over button, it slides out while revealing tooltip text in its place, move cursor to button again

if you want to make sure people read a lot of instructions you can chain this so that you need to hover over the button multiple times, revealing the instructions a bit at a time

Earlier quoted context omitted.

I had to reinstall win98 so many times I still remember the pirate key k4hvdq9tj96crx9c9g68rq2d3 by heart good times :)

I guess I was more of the FCKGW generation. :)

IIRC with Windows 98 you could just use any product key you had on as many machines as you wanted since there was no activation or real phoning home capabilities. So most likely your whole friend group would be using the same serial that was copied off your uncle's old gateway.

Wow, so someone opened a discord server for a community and banned an insulting word for the community? This must be a first.

Is "Microslop" really insulting , though?

I think the most important question here is this: Are users who post the string "microslop" generally desirable participants that will contribute in a productive manner?

I suspect not.

What community is there to house around Microsoft Copilot? Seriously, why does Microsoft Copilot need a Discord Server? What do I talk about when I join the Microsoft Copilot server? What are we doing here?

It reminds me of the US army and their fabulous idea to open a Twitch channel. Went as well as you expect.

Hateful speech, really? If we called it Micro$hit maybe.... but if they are going to be buthurt because a bunch of gamers and sysadmins are annoyed at the horrific direction the company is taking, then they deserve it.

IDK what's funnier/more pathetic, them doing this or an entire article getting written about it. MicroslopSlop

> them doing this

Wouldn't any community that wants to encourage good quality conversations immediately ban everyone posting stupid slashdot-esque jokes like this?
