the endgame here is buying a franchise to rebrand it so there's no way they can gently caress up their marketing Seattle Surfaces with Bing powered by Windows Professional Edition SP2.

I wonder if the FOX NFL staff were specifically instructed to refer to the Surfaces as iPads prior to Microsoft giving them money.

NFL had some promo or something they were dpi and it was in front of a bunch of windows live tiles. they made no mention of it from what I can recall.

Microsoft should have just given them a bunch of iPads, but put them in kickstandable cases that say SURFACE on the back in giant letters.

As you might already know, Notch is the creator of Minecraft and the majority shareholder at Mojang. He’s decided that he doesn’t want the responsibility of owning a company of such global significance. Over the past few years he’s made attempts to work on smaller projects, but the pressure of owning Minecraft became too much for him to handle. The only option was to sell Mojang. He’ll continue to do cool stuff though. Don’t worry about that.

The founders: Notch, Carl, and Jakob are leaving. We don’t know what they’re planning. It won’t be Minecraft-related but it will probably be cool. when reached for comment, notch confirmed this included "swimming atop piles of cash a la scrooge mcduck"

minecraft was in alpha when it first got popular so then they kicked it through "beta" and "release" so they could jack up the pricetag, even though it didn't pass any developmental milestiones and barely changed at all from being a janky unifinished pos
