• Microsoft media coverage became pure spam, always spun as "HEY HI" or "GEN HEY AI" something. It helps the fraud and Ponzi scheme, especially when there's nothing important to actually show. Even stuff like union-busting is spun as "HEY HI" now. Truly ridiculous. Does it get any worse? Windows? HEY HI. What's NOT "HEY HI"?
