    This is hilarious.

    I love the faith, too. Like, of Microsoft, of all people. The “your Xbox is your cable box now” Microsoft. The “Here’s mandatory Kinect, the Wii killer” Microsoft. The Windows Me Microsoft. The “Windows 8 is now a touch OS” Microsoft.

    I gotta say, you guys really give tech companies the benefit of the doubt. I’ve seen too much, perhaps.

    In that vein, let me propose a more accurate picture:

        No, I did. I can see it.

        Welcome to the Fediverse, where me attaching a picture and you seeing the picture are not necessarily the same thing.

        Hey, I am an equal opportunity criticiser. Fedia/Kbin/Lemmy suck at this.

        I added a text link, at least, but that’s already way too far to go for that joke.

          Ah thanks. I think you underestimate them, they’ve proven they are capable of executing even if everything hasn’t landed.

          But I’m never unhappy about a Spaceballs reference. 🙂
