Ooft, commiserations. Don’t let them steal your Jenkins too! He has served faithfully for 30 years, and will serve for easily 30 more if you give him a chance. And artifact storage!

The service with zero 9s. Why does anyone pay for it? I’ve been trying to persuade us to go back to bitbucket at work

For those in the UK: Prospect

Yet still hallucinates mass bullshit and can’t count, can’t architect, and can’t write a decent test

Lol, at least half. Maybe 10% actually hooked up

Reads like a shakedown by the UK government. Channel 5 may be spun out to satisfy this? Would anyone notice if it even disappeared?

Yup, the lesser of three evils though. I probably won’t buy any of the next gen at this stage though. Can’t see any game on the horizon being worth an upgrade

Mass Effect 5 though…

And yet, I still won’t buy a console without a drive. MS and Sony can fuck off if they think I’ll buy a console from them without a disc drive. I’d much sooner buy from Gabe, who is a DRM whore, but at least has open hardware

Anti-trust when? Clearly collaboration at this stage

Or even a zero 2w

Just staggeringly anti-consumer. I guess this will be my last console generation then, I refuse to not have a disc drive and no second hand market

Where they will barely get a rounding error for a fine. I wonder how much they have offered them to settle already?

Look at those appointments. Not a gamer in the lot of them. Enshittification will continue

Not going to happen unfortunately. There have been so many challengers that have failed to usurp. And the bundling and ecosystem with sharepoint is a) exceptionally useful amd b) anticompetitive. It will take a serious legal case to dislodge excel

Companies care about Windows for sure

Exactly, both are under performing. New CEO should be fixing that

I dunno. Windows 11 sales have been crap. People aren’t buying new machines due to it. Relaunch 12 as privacy focussed, AI enabled (but optional), and they could see a bounce. Double down on Office, keep a steady improvement on Azure, and see Xbox as a growth opportunity. Microsoft could avoid the AI slump

Notice how Apple have not jumped all in. They are anticipating the storm and are well prepared to weather it out

Just testing

No. I don’t. Fingers crossed for arch supporting for many years
