So 1/8 of every person on earth using an Xbox product every single day. That’s unimaginably ridiculous.
What if… Your computer is an Xbox and your mobile is an Xbox
Boom. Nailed it
The world is in a leadership crisis. For the last 60 years we have had decent leadership as the world changed and advanced in many ways.
Now the leadership class is entitled and in need of correction. I pray that they find it before the only prescription is more volunteer Player 2s
The world is in a leadership crisis
I’m pretty happy with President Sheinbaum. Don’t blame the world for your problems. I also don’t think the US had better leadership while it was literally lynching black people but what do I know
Leaders today are all raging narcissists. They are by and large not intelligent at all. Lacking in basic empathy for your fellow humans makes you able to advance in any current trash ridden corporate environment but at some point they end up on top of the pile and their ideas are still stupid.
Okay I’m nearing 50 so can only comment on those years but seemed up to say 2000 things were going better (okay not awesome but I so felt in the late 90s people were being more accepted countries got along better) cold war technically ended, tthough obviously not given Russian intrusions to everyone’s shit, seriously Russia FUCK OFF. You want to be invited to parties? Play nice for a fucking change.
But there’s been a serious downgrade to acceptable leadership since 2000 in western democracies (noticlby one with the largest military with the terrorist attack) maybe some more noticable than most but oddly after all that Russia could play their fucking online game of manipulation.
Now I’m not saying it’s all due to Russia, if countries spent more on education to see this stuff it’d be ignored. But nope people are educated to think it’s all right.
I’m not a scholar but I can see the division being made between people of a country to make it weaker, the worst part is the countries that are doing the weakening are shit and just stirring shit. Like a professional shit disturber.
One day I hope we educate people properly to see the crap is happening. I can see it plain as day and I don’t even study politics I’m just a programmer. I may be wrong but if you look at how outside forces influence a country it’s so plain, just put a bit in the tiniest crack and go to town.
Maybe if we saw we were more similar than apart we could figure out how to grow. I know it’s a pipe dream, I’m an idealist but I really just want us to grow as a species. Imagine if we could put all our budget into space resources, more for us, get along and cooperate. Sure some may live worse but many so much better. Nope we got to bicker what we got here for silly fucking reasons.
The shareholder catering will continue until morale improves
Did you miss the bit where she gestured expansively with her hands? No-one delusional would think to do that.
If we ever develop a tool to speak with animals, it would be sponsored by capitalists for the sake of market growth.
XBox CEO carries the same weight as McDonald’s Manager to me.
Growth mindset is delusional. But they think they have to be delusional to appease investors.
The only way to get those kind of numbers is a hard pivot to mobile gaming even Minecraft only has about 200mm monthly users
I still remember the internet glazing this new CEO a couple months ago cause they lowered prices.
Like, cmon people. It’s a CEO. They’re all delusional. That’s how they got the job.
Honestly I was really excited for her when she took on the role.
It’s just been downhill since. One can be excited for change and still disappointed with the outcome.
For me the irony is how she was leading the AI team and now has to go to Xbox and talk about how memory and storage is just so expensive for some reason.

Honestly it be doable if they started making phone games.
that’s the only way that can happen. 1 billion users is like the combined total of the dozen most popular games, which are pretty much all mobile or have mobile versions.
I’m guessing she is the new Ellen Pao for x-box? Xbox is cratering and they need some good scapegoat to push through some more nonsense, so they put her there and once shits really on fire, they can just point at her
Glass cliff again!
She wants to go mobile. That’s the only way to get those numbers.
“Do you guys not have phones?” - Blizzard in 2018 to a crowd of PC enthusiasts after selling PC games for nearly 30 years at the time.
I just don’t think you can add mobile to an existing platform lile PC or Console. You are marketing to other demographics… the ones that dont play PC and Console games…
I’ll never understand how the dumbest people keep getting these jobs.
Easy - they’re never punished for failure. If execs lost their jobs and didn’t get a cent for being fired due to incompetence, they’d be more cautious.
Golden parachutes mean that you have no serious incentive to do a good job.
Nepotism
Microsoft wants someone who continues to reach for unattainable growth in order to make their stocks keep going up. The problem is they would have to reduce cost to get more products in more hands and they know they won’t do that. It’s all just BS for investors
CEO makes up delusional numbers and parades them around as if this is normal
I see somebody took the Elmo musk manual for becoming rich?
