Yeah! I can’t be bothered with all this shit, I’ll just be a wagie instead.

That pic reminds me of something. Anyone else remember when “flatscreen” was the cool marketing hype for monitors/TVs?
Yeah, I figured as much.
What a big brain move from their support team, lol
It’s bad enough when these companies are monopolistic and malicious. But monopolistic, malicious AND incompetent - argh, it’s just too much.
I lost my Minecraft account to this, but that’s because the email address I bought the game with was with Lavabit, and thus never was able to receive any of the emails. Couldn’t verify I owned it either because again, no access to the email address.
I was just a kid when I signed up for that Lavabit address sometime in the 2000s, a kid who was vaguely interested in the idea of privacy and software freedom (I used PPC Ubuntu on a G3 iBook btw). Bought Minecraft Alpha in 2010 for €10. Now because of time passing and some bullshit happening I don’t have access to any of it.
But tbh I never opened a support ticket or anything, because fuck Microsoft. Its the principle of the whole thing
That was a good game, I used to destroy everyone at local split screen
Hopefully one day they remaster it in high refresh rate, 4K, on PC… but I’m dreaming, that’ll never happen
Mass media kinda already does this. Paging Edward Bernays!
Laptop form factor is very ambitious! Huge respect. I would love to give one a spin
That would be cool.
I guess my AMD Bulldozer TV PC is gonna have to go in the ewaste bin though. Its already stretched to its limit running Linux Mint, Firefox, uBlock Origin and Sponsorblock as it is
You’re a big guy
I think Asimov had some thoughts on this subject
Wild that we’re at this point now
Praise the sunaurus!
That’s the Microsoft™️ Guarantee!
Life as a teen isn’t easy anyway
Glad that shit is over for me. We only had MySpace and MSN Messenger. Must be so much worse now
Hopefully in a couple of cycles’ time, we’ll be ready for them
Another day, another stupid fucking government surveillance overreach
Every cloud has a silver lining it seems (heheh)
damn, blood it is then
It’s basically the same shit at this point
I miss xfire too.
So that’s what happened to them
