Funny thing is that is not likely. The shareholders of microsoft (and most blue chip companies) have not really asked for anything other then endless profits lately. This endless drive into shit seems to be almost entirely driven by weird sales pitches and executives chasing a sunk cost.
That is the world you live in because people like you make it that way by thinking that the us is a land where trust is worth anything politically.
Kinda need a war for that, but yeah.
Also finding people outside your borders guilty, sentencing them to death and carrying out that sentence without even knowing their name might be just a tad excessive.
Same way they knew about enemy casualties in any conflict, they "estimate" from observed data before they pull the trigger.
FYI did you know that the us claimed 1.1 million kills in Vietnam? The Vietnamese claim less then 500,000 where killed (with many many more civilians killed)
Do they think the sun only shines on earth?
That's the neat part! They can't! No one is counting bodies in person, this is all remote us murder, as is tradition.
Its just naked greed, the sooner the world can move away from america and these companies the better.
I got unreasonably upset the other day when I realized that windows can no longer seem to sort folders by size anymore.
The non tariff nations getting hit with higher then us prices just shows how little they think of customers. They assume we will pay, they feel entitled to our money. The products have stagnanted, the prices are made up and clearly based on nothing but good old fashion "fuck you pay me" logic. My guess is they are assuming "AI" companies will just buy whatever they make.
If people keep buying however they will keep doing this. If the market drops out from them (AI bubble bursting at the same time people cut back on buying new systems) then they will likely ask for bailouts (your money again).
And if it was even partly accurate, having all the down sides on top of being given absolutely trash level output is a bit of a downer.
