If they uninstalled the xbox app they’d have no way of coordinating their sea of thieves matches with the employees that work on a console

Incidentally this makes me want to put the following plot into a sitcom:
- Company lacks a computer and assigns an employee an xbox instead
- They’re expected to use browser versions of slack, outlook, etc on the built-in edge browser
- Their request for a keyboard is denied
- This plot line goes background, but still appears in this form: any time that character’s input is considered in email or slack or whatever it’s ultra-short and contains tons of xbox-like abbreviations like “gg”
- It ends up turning this character’s whole style into “man of few words”. Even in person they turn to him and his response after a really long wait is “We do Anne’s idea. Meeting over”
- He flies up the corporate ladder as a result
- Occasional shots inside his office as a high-level exec include a big TV and an xbox. The fact this is his work station is not overtly mentioned. You never see a laptop.

They forgot to remove game mode and a bunch of the built-in advertisement stuff from the workstation images they were using a while back, and I work for state government.

I’ve also worked in state government. I am both surprised and not surprised to hear this.

I used to work for a state University medical system. I spent weeks slimming down an image, making sure it worked, and removed all unnecessary functions. Then some director wanted solitaire and I had to change the image to include the games package. Not just his computer. Oh no. In case his PC needed reimaged, we must change the entire image and deploy to everyone.
