What about the 30% code is made with AI, and Windows having major problems? Or the fact that there is no innovation and they offering just the basics?

No Microslop fits them perfectly.

Sadly there are many users who are all in on the AI bullshit, so that likely won’t happen until after the bubble pops.

[-] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 5 points 2 months ago

they could 50% improve their implementation if they renamed it clippy

They just announced the death of XBOX too. Microslop gonna put AI/windows into consoles.

[-] LiveLM@lemmy.zip 34 points 2 months ago

Looking forward to the next Xslop

[-] _lilith@lemmy.world 19 points 2 months ago

slopbox?

Now you're just trying to turn me on!!

[-] nialv7@lemmy.world 58 points 2 months ago

How do they not realize once they try to ban it, it's going to stick? If they just ignore it, it might go away after a while.

It's the Streisand effect

Having participated in the epic Mac vs. PC flame wars of the 90s and 00s I’m upset us Mac users never came up with Microslop.

[-] UnspecificGravity@piefed.social 16 points 2 months ago

No, but we did have a cross platform PC game about it:

I always used to say that Gates named the company after his dick.

[-] Semi_Hemi_Demigod@lemmy.world 6 points 2 months ago

That was you?!? Brilliant

[-] GeeDubHayduke@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

So you've seen Epic Rap Battles. How clever of you.

[-] darkdemize@sh.itjust.works 6 points 2 months ago

Never heard of that. It's not exactly a difficult joke to make and I'm sure I'm not the only one to ever come up with it.

[-] GreenKnight23@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago

clearly true with all the time he spent on that island with those children.

[-] ZILtoid1991@lemmy.world 9 points 2 months ago

I might make Microslop Winslop 13, making fun of the AI hype cycle.

[-] Reygle@lemmy.world 9 points 2 months ago

Sloperating system

[-] Buddahriffic@lemmy.world 5 points 2 months ago

Probably because Mac marketers never thought of it. Their whole marketing strategy during the 90s wasn't even about what Macs or PCs could do but that cool people liked Macs and only middle aged business men liked PCs. Despite most of the games that weren't on both platforms being on the PC side and Macs being the overpriced underperforming one (which IMO is the opposite of cool).

[-] Semi_Hemi_Demigod@lemmy.world 3 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

I’m pretty sure Apple’s marketing team didn’t come up with “Micro$oft” more than a decade before the first ads with Hoffman and Justin Long in them.

[-] Buddahriffic@lemmy.world 3 points 2 months ago

That one was just as popular with windows users back in the day, or at least the groups I ran with.

Windows 12 is to be a mixed AI and Subscription model service.

[-] Cris_Citrus@piefed.zip 30 points 2 months ago

That turned out not to be real reporting and reputable outlets covering it retracted the story, but I wouldn't put it past Microsoft to decide its a great idea

[-] LSNLDN@slrpnk.net 12 points 2 months ago

Oh really? Guess they were testing what public opinion would be. They deserve the fury of the public at least to guide them lol

[-] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 5 points 2 months ago

i personally think it was real: it was a controlled "leak" to test the waters (or to prove to the executives to change course), and when the reaction was so predictably overwhelmingly negative the executives maybe woke up a little?

[-] einlander@lemmy.world 10 points 2 months ago

Don't forget the windows 360 cloud thinclients they are now selling.

[-] BarneyPiccolo@lemmy.today 3 points 2 months ago

It won't work, but the C-Suite will have their primary objectives met - it's got AI and Subscription, what more could anyone want?

What show is this? Assuming it is.

Thanks :)

[-] EpicFailGuy@lemmy.world 4 points 2 months ago

I love saying Microslop because Micro$oft doesn't translate well into speech ... I use this in formal conversation with customers as a support engineer on a fortune 500 European defense contractor.
