Cortana was actually really good on Windows Phone but they dumbed it down and added all sort of crap to it by the time it was integrated onto the desktop. They could’ve doubled down on whatads it good but nope.

Seems like their parent company hasn’t learned anything since the whole Superfish nonsense all those years ago. Glad I’ve stayed far away from them all this time.

Not OP but I have tried it and it really doesn’t age well. The story is novel for its time and I think it’s still alright but the level design absolutely didn’t especially when you put it beside games like Half Life that came out at about the same time. The maze in The Library was especially awful. Frankly, to me, the Xen levels in Half Life was better and that’s saying something.
Frankly, the only Halo games I ever had fun was Reach and Infinite even though Infinite’s story was eh… The gameplay was the most fun I’ve had in any Halo game.


Their recent release has them pretty competitive with AMD and Apple to an extent again. It’s not an absolute disaster that was pre 16th gen (if that’s what they’re called) .


Tribalism is one hell of a drug…


Satya may have grown the company share price but he’s absolutely killed everything that made Microslop even remotely interesting before he became CEO.


Nah I meant when we’re writing rendering code on our own. Those fixes in the drivers are custom made for those games only and aren’t applied in any other application, especially anything you write yourself.


Same issue with AMD’s drivers sometimes. Not to say that their drivers are perfect but as a graphics engineer, I’ve had stuff my colleagues wrote and tested on Nvidia work fine but break on AMD because AMD was implementing the OpenGL spec exactly but Nvidia decided to be “lenient” and add hacks that make incomplete code work.
I really regret not buying one of the earlier GoPros. The Insta360 frankly has been a huge disappointment. The batteries are really awful.
