andrew_bidlaw , 5 days ago to Technology in Microsoft has gone too far: including a Game Pass ad in the Settings app ushers in a whole new age of ridiculous over-advertising

At the very least, the price of OEM OS should be disclosed before one buys it.

And it's not like w11 is free, the price of a PC with Windows installed comes with its' license's costs. It's not told to the consumer so they won't even know they are using a product they paid for, for them it's what a clean basic PC looks like. And that's what prevents many to care about it the same way they can be frustrated by a paid streaming plan with ads. To take is as a given, and shifting the Overtone's window of fucked up services even further.

The last I really enjoyed is a complimentary live album to their movie about the Invaders tour, I guess it was in early 2010s. Probably worth a watch\listen if you are into that.

I have a dream of that time when small MS's changes won't get media coverage because even tech journos will not use the latest Windows release anymore.

Authenticity only works when you don't jump ships and stay on point. Not for billionaires, tho.

I wonder how long it'd take until they take down STEEP. I suppose it's even less popular than The Crew, but I liked it that much I'd pay once more if someone would keep it alive after Ubi does the Ubi thing. Extreme sports are rarely portrayed in games, and for me it would be a huge loss even though I feel like I enjoyed every penny I spent at least thrice.
