    That's the Microsoft strategy, but they forgot to make it better sometimes too

    It's been Android too at least since they stopped naming versions after sweets

    The Microsoft strategy often seems to be "It worked well, but we completely redid it because we need to justify out existence. Now it barely works with new bugs"

    That's more Google's strategy. Microsoft is more "we updated a bunch of stuff so that we could push our products and services even harder and closed workarounds people are using to avoid them, and if you don't like it, fuck you, what're you gonna do?"

    The trick is that isn't a capital i, it is a lowercase L. Now with AL integration. Every program you run just has a picture of Weird Al and a snippet of a random song from his greatest hits album as a splash screen.
