    Fucking disgusting, Microslop cannot help themselves, Satya needs to be thrown out of the company at this stage. He’s going to run Microsoft into the ground and everything they ever bought. As eventually, people are just going to stop paying and using their stuff with this continued forced push of LLM garbage. It needs to stop. I use Linux as my main operating system, my Xbox Series S is an extra in my home. It will be replaced with a Steam Machine ASAP.

      Hey… Not to worry. The goal is for us to be forced to use proprietary, AI ridden malware. Android is locking down, age verification and hardware level scanning laws are coming to every western nation. They would never just outlaw Linux but they could neuter its freedom and autonomy. Privacy ROMs will be banned soon, either explicitly or by being made near impossible to get. Every device, every interaction online, every communication, will be scanned for state approved guidelines.

      Thiel, the Heritage Foundation, the Elsons, and a bunch of rich fucks and companies want to control every single part of your life. Mark my words when I tell you, if they get their way in the future, we’ll all be slaves (literal slaves, not wage slaves) and neurolinks will be forced in every single person. These people are disgusting and sick

        That’s really not true though. If Satya hadn’t guided Microsoft to their current cloud services model, their loses in various anti-trust cases could have ended the company as a penny stock.

        These huge companies aren’t immune to consequences.

        SEARS was untouchable, and is now nothing.

          SEARS didn’t adapt. They were a mailorder king in the 80s, but somehow they didn’t feel online store was the method they should go with…which is just mailorder with an online catalog.

          Same seems to be happening with MS, they don’t understand their clients.

      Which was already the name of a feature on the xbox to have 2 controllers pretending to be one. Is it the same thing as the thing on Windows that keeps trying to force its way down my throat or something different that has the same name so when people complain online about it there will be deliberate confusion about the exact nature of the complaint until frustration causes users to lash out at eachother instead of finding and fixing the problem?

    If you need that much handholding, why not just watch a playthrough on YouTube and save yourself the money?

      Because the concentration span of every new generation keeps decreasing. If they don’t figure out things immediately, they get frustrated and do sth else like scroll TikTok to get the instant dopamine boost.

    I just don’t see how this could provide any value. Assuming a new games comes out, there is literally no information to train on but the game itself. You kind of need existing guides for that and if developers have to write them themselves, you might as well add those with a good full text search.

    On top of that, the age of guides seems kind of gone. Most games are quite on the nose about everything and tend to present more tutorials than you will ever need.

    And lastly, I just don’t want to write stuff out on a console and neither do I want to wear some kind of microphone for my single player games.

        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.

        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.

    They likely want to start collecting data. So they need to get something rushed out so that they can build up the pile of data they will need to build out and refine this feature in time for the launch of their next console.

    Copilot seems like an online feature. As such, I hope it requires a GamePass subscription like all multiplayer games do.

    Current-generation consoles? You know you can’t put copilot on switch 2, Microsoft?

    The Xbox dashboard is already a mess so I hope this doesn’t make it even more shit. I know it will though.
