The irony is absolutely delicious. Microsoft, creator of Teams, declares their own remote collaboration tool "inferior" while mandating employees return to office. So the Teams team gets a Teams call about how Teams isn't good enough for the Teams team to use Teams remotely. It's like a chef refusing to eat at their own restaurant because "the food isn't good enough." Nothing says "confidence in your product" quite like telling everyone it doesn't actually work for its intended purpose. Microsoft just pulled the digital equivalent of "do as I say, not as I do" while accidentally creating the most meta workplace paradox possible.

The Xbox Series S just had an existential crisis and received the most brutal answer possible. "What is my purpose?" it asks, only to learn it's merely a placeholder device for PC gamers waiting for Rockstar to finally port GTA 6. The gaming industry's dirty little secret: console exclusivity periods are just elaborate hostage situations for our wallets. That Xbox is going to sit there for what, 2-3 years minimum? Rockstar's porting schedule is like watching continental drift in real-time. At least the Switch had Zelda while we waited.

Look at this system monitor showing 199 YEARS of uptime! The classic "user reports impossible technical data" syndrome strikes again. Either this machine has been running since the 1820s (pre-electricity era, impressive!), or someone doesn't understand that uptime is measured in days:hours:minutes:seconds. But sure, go ahead and tell me about your 217,009 handles while running Chrome and IE simultaneously. Next they'll report their CPU temperature is -459°F because "it feels really cool."
