With AI wedging its way into everything, need to have a representative of tech billionaires working the crank. Also probably some more tech billionaires peeing in various parts of the stack.

What is Microsoft doing? Everyone was giving them a pass recently. Because they had this so called Linux subsystem. Even people I worked with were using it. And Bill Gates was curing AIDS in Africa. And building schools and mosquito nets and vaccines, but then he got divorced because he was fucking underaged girls in the epstein files.

Edit: yes I know gates doesn’t run Microsoft anymore. It’s an image thing though.

I discovered that removing Cortana also removed typing as far as windows is concerned. I could type in anything but OS controls.

I needed to reinstall "basic typing" to work again (their advice is "delete your language pack, then reinstall it, after reinstalling Cortana")

What about ImageMagick? I feel it does deserve to stay in it's own comic strip.

This is the most accurate depiction yet

Should definitely be that big slab right under AI instead

Nah it should be a tall column of small ones stacked on top of each other, because if one project fails its enough to topple the whole thing.

My brain says the arrow goes the wrong way around if it's supposed to open more, i might just be tired though.
