    Hi. Microsoft employee here. That’s happening because we don’t give a shit and we are being replaced by folks from India

      As former MSFT employee who just got replaced by India… I’m kind of relieved I’m gone. Working for them felt like working for the bad guys

        What did you expect? That corps would solve climate change or what?

        The pigs on the very top are secured and that’s enough

        This is every forum response on MS forums, it’s infuriating.

        “I have super specific error code with super specific driver that was changed with super specific windows update.”

        “Me too!”

        “Same, here’s some more info from event viewer”

        “Maybe try uninstalling the device”

        “Uninstall my WiFi card?”

        “Hi I’m bob from Microsoft you should run sfc scan now and that will fix it”

        “That didn’t fix it”

        “Ok here’s how to reinstall windows”

    This is the third update in like six months that is horribly broken. There was a windows 10 update that wouldn’t install because the recovery partition that Microsoft’s installer created was too small. The prior win 11 update just won’t install for lots of people and there’s no real rhyme or reason. Now this crap.

    They just don’t give a shit anymore. Microsoft had a great run folks, time to move on.

      Remember the dozens of times a Windows 10 update could potentially wipe your personal data?

      Man, I’ve been trying to migrate to Linux as my daily driver desktop over the last week. I love Linux passionately. But multi-monitor and 2.5Gb/s NIC support is just a disaster, basically to the point of completely unusable. It’s so frustrating. It keeps pushing me back to Windows, because Windows just works when it comes to hardware.

      There was a former employee that talked about it, they moved from actually testing on real hardware to automated VM testing and started missing a lot more
