    Unless Microsoft, Disney, Steam, and Sony merge, or perhaps some sort of combination including Tencent; fat fucking chance.

      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.

    I want a robot horse, like one of my He-Man action figures had. It had like a laser canon mounted on it’s butt.

    This is an absurd number.

    I hate how people just say random stuff that they think sounds good and no one questions it anymore because it fulfils their financial fantasy.

      And stocks go up on the BS and never crash because it was wrong.

    I was trying to compare this goal with the mobile gaming market, which is undeniably the biggest gaming market out there. Free Fire, a free mobile PUBG clone that became more popular than PUBG itself, had a peak of 150 million daily active players. This means you’d need at least to have the equivalent to 6.7 Free Fires running at the same time to even try to reach a peak of 1 billion daily active players (yes, I know, funny number). And Free Fire was one of those games that blew up like nothing else.

    So 1/8 of every person on earth using an Xbox product every single day. That’s unimaginably ridiculous.

    The quote is

    I want XBOX to be one of the few companies that entertains more than a billion people each day and gives everyone the opportunity to create and connect

    Are they moving into other forms of entertainment like web, or media?

    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

      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

      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.

    Did you miss the bit where she gestured expansively with her hands? No-one delusional would think to do that.
