  When the Internet first appeared, many people thought AOL was the Internet. Later, people discovered the Internet was still there. AOL wasn't. Then came a time when people thought Yahoo was the Internet. After that Google was the Internet. Then Facebook was the Internet. And now AI companies are becoming the new center of attention.The Internet itself never disappeared. The center of gravity simply kept changing.

  @ASSEENONAI @Grummz They'll likely end up spinning xbox off. Kind of been saying they should do that since 2015. Just wish I did it on here so I could point to that. Problem with doing it at this point is that it is more about saving face for Microsoft and not about saving Xbox. I do think they should go through with it though. Part of the problem was Satya Nadella, he's the one who pushed for over expensive acquisitions and game pass. A lot of people blame Phil Spencer, but I think he was just a victim of his bosses own incompetence. I don't know where Sara Bond fits in to all of this, but I kind of point to her being a Satya drone that was hand picked for Phil as Xbox was not recovering since the Don Matrick blunders that came before him. A lot of people blame phil for what honestly started with Don Matrick, x360 was already a weakening brand by the time that generation was over and Sony had basically closed the gap that was once a huge lead and huge reputation. Removing Satya and the rest of microsoft would force the company to stand on its own two feet and look at the industry realistically. Cut some of that tainted human resource and get back to making good games. Hard decisions will need to be made and Xbox will need to be profitable again before this can work. We may even see microsoft retool their hardware targets to be more like Nintendo's than Sony's going forward. Leaving Valve and Sony as the only competitors in the high end gaming market. Still forcing sony and valve to address the low end as the plateau is no longer too far out of reach. This would effectively put an end to game pass and many other stupid ideas microsoft has had over the last 25 years. Praise Xbox Live as much as you want, but paying for a walled garden should have died with AOL 35 years. Now we have this stupid situation where we are fighting companies in courts just to keep servers online, paying for a minimal tier for "premium" game servers many of which are peer to peer and not being funded by the subscription. That entire back end is just for user accounts, messages, and voice chat, not even get versions of technology that are fundamentally free at this point. PSN and Nintendo Online would have likely had been still free too day if Microsoft hadn't decided it was more important to have subscriptions. I think at this point Xbox is a stranger to microsoft. Remember when the Xbox brand was formed it was to take over the living room and keep sony from ceasing control. They ultimately lost that fight and many others. I'd say the fight for the living room now belongs to streaming boxes, not game consoles. The threat of the DVD drive no longer exists. There isn't a single Xbox/Microsoft streaming service for any media that I'm aware of on Fire TV, Apple TV, Roku, or name another device. There isn't even a microsoft smart tv. These days Microsoft's interests are AI and Cloud. It's anyone's guess if Windows is even still a priority to the company these days, let alone Office. So why does Microsoft even need a gaming division? Direct X was originally intended to get people on windows. Now it's being used on Linux through proton and some devs are starting to look at vulkan to help improve that compatibility. GPU drivers are getting better in the linux space. I think it's time microsoft stepped back from gaming. Keep working direct X. Maybe consider bringing their development tools to other platforms. I know they tried this once a long time ago and Sony and Nintendo told them to **** off, but things change. The entire development suite for both companies is buried in Visual Studio development these days. With support for things like CLANG and cross platform connections. MS thinks making it easier to port between PC and Xbox Helix is going to be some kind of huge win that'll get them exclusives from third parties, I just don't see it. 3rd Party devs have entire core tech departments just specializing in getting around the weakness in dev kits. At best indies may seek you out assuming Epic doesn't just laugh you out of the room as people continue to get their Engine.

  @AntiLeftMemes 19, only because I was never a subscriber of AOL. I very easily could have - as in I have been alive the entire time the addresses have been available. So simply for my age, and availability/using simular email, I would have a total of 20.
