If I were a multi-billionaire, I'd pay people to follow around Microsoft executives with a megaphone. They'd just shout "Do you want to save that to OneDrive?!" every few seconds right near their ears. Indefinitely, all day long, all night long. Forever. Of course, there would be no relief. My request wouldn't make sense and there would be nothing they could do to make them cease

No, you gotta give them a chance to tell you to stop! That way you can tell them "pausing setup requests for now" and then go back to harassing them a few minutes later

Reminds me of the customer support bat, me and some friends envisioned in a bar - one far away day. It detect swinging motion and a controller in the tip of the bat plays a sound typical of customer support lifetime wasting platitude. "All of your worries are extremely important to us.." "We love our customers and will do anything to help.."

Start a GoFundMe! That idea deserves to see the light of day. Also: Follow pretty much every software product manager around Silicon valley with a megaphone shouting "Do you want me to keep shouting at you? [YES | ASK AGAIN LATER]"

I highly doubt that Satya Nadella uses Windows, because if he did it would actually be good.

I mean I suppose it's possible he's just delusional, but imagine using Windows and thinking it's an acceptable product. There's simply no way.

He probably gets given a custom build of Windows without all the garbage that the users Microsoft disdains so much get force-fed.
