I was a kid late 90s / early 2000s. Microsoft was the silly pinball game on my grandmas computer, drawing dicks on paint with my friends, learning to type in school, and Master Chief.
Comment on Xbox just revealed Gaming Copilot is coming to "current-generation consoles" later this year

When you were a kid in the early 2000’s, you didnt know about things like bill gates being a pedophile and “microslop”, you just knew that on friday night you were going to go over to your friends house and play halo and gears on their xbox. Those were simpler times

Yes, though I think of them more as the times I unknowingly supported a company that was actively contributing to the death of digital literacy in the western world.
So, tomato potato — or whatever.

Microsoft was always an infamous piece of shit corporation. Shitty unstable software that people needed because MS was a PC monopoly since the 1980s.
