They are back in their villain arc. For a while now.

Our vocabulary is so stunted. Has no one else noticed that we increasingly talk about the world like it's fiction playing out in front of us?

Most of our world is a fiction or at least a highly distorted version of reality.

My advice to people is: Get out into nature, stop believing everything on the news and meet people in person.

Most of the news is ragebait designed to get you angry at specific targets rather than the systems themselves.

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

Ah, FuCK Gates, William. I think there were at least three other commonly used codes, but this one was by far the most popular.

So this is the company pushing to be an integral part of everyone's lives, forcing it down everyone's throat without consent. And they're already moderation a light hearted joke about their low quality products. Doesn't really bode well for the future product Vision.

It's a monopoly. Unless you are a wealthy hipster with money to burn on Apple products. (They also spy on you.)

Hehe, this reminds me of 30 years ago when people used to stylise it as Micro$oft or creatively misspell it as Microshaft, etc. Even on the Amiga, there was the filesystem that could read PC format disks that was called MessyDos. It just seems like the next generation has discovered what an easy name it is to make puns from.

My favorite nickname for MS-DOS is "Domestos" (pronounced /də ˈmɛs ˌtɒs/) which is a brand of bathroom cleanee from the UK.

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?

Someone wanted to get paid to be a Discord mod.

Don't forget Winblows

Outbreak Express!

It was "Outhouse Express" and "GruntPage" for me in the late 90s. I still use these for software I find particularly irksome, for example Conscrewence from AtlASSian.

Ah yes another company disregarding the Streisand effect - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Streisand_effect.

No one in my circles said this, now I've heard it twice now through headlines of Microsoft trying to punish or block it.

Now I've started saying it too.
