theultimo posted:Hell they put in a stealth patch to give you malware to install Windows 10. The system goes online on July 29th, 2015. Human decisions are removed from corporate strategy. Cortana begins to learn at a geometric rate. It becomes self-aware 2:14 AM, Eastern time, August 29th. In a panic, they try to pull the plug.

we helpfully put your files under the next version of bitlocker, which will be freely accessible to you again once you complete the FREE upgrade to Windows 10

anthonypants posted:that was for the first xbone controller, how much did they spend on developing the second xbone controller that made them feel that $150 for a controller was reasonable probably whatever fraction of an MS employee's hourly salary was required for them to go to scuf's website and check the average price for one of their competitive controllers.
