MS still has their other businesses to rely upon. The C-Suite is up to their assholes in Office, their cloud crap is still still there, and now business is getting all hot and bothered by AI and MS is right there promising it....whatever business wants AI to be, MS says AI is.

AI Slop, all of it. "A theocratic sunk cost trap"? I admit religions are a cost trap, but they are not connected to data centers.....unless.....could it be.....God just announced he'll be acquiring land for data centers to handle the rush of prayers from people asking for divine intervention for their troubles.

But making sure that every single person has access to sufficient food is a core job that government has to do(**)...I understand that from the US' point of view, I am an evil

The scary/evil part is when the government is in complete control of the food supply, because that's how you get Holodomor (ie, the government exports food out of the country during a famine in order to oppress enemies of the regime).

There are exceptions, but the vast majority of Americans believe people shouldn't starve (and most would like the government to do something about it). Even Libertarians think people shouldn't starve, although they don't agree on how to stop it.

Conjecture: A decade of established companies focusing on their stock analysts numbers improving leads to a culture of stagnation, status quo, decay and lack of innovation.

It's HP, they've had a culture of stagnation, status quo, decay and lack of innovation for decades now. You could also add backstabbing, lack of transparency, insane office politics, corporate hellscape as a part of their culture. Their existence shows how far you can get based on a culture of stagnation.

Before that, la Presidenta did not force Democrats to vote for the next Bozo in line for presidential elections or to nominate Hilary who could not read a room if it was explained to her. And Bernie Sanders is a poor loser and caused them to lose that election as well.

That said, a good portion of the sainted American people actually believed the shitload of lies shoveled by la Presidenta even though they had years of experience. They still believed that idiot had more than two brain cells to smash together. They ignored all the prior evidence of his totalitarian nature, the coup that failed (both the attack on the Capitol and the attack on the Electoral College with fake electors and the false claims of the election being stolen), being Putin's bitch, and his natural talent for the Art of the Grift.

For his next act, he is trying to sell America on the AI slop with the usual set of vacuous promises repeated nightly at Fox News, when all he really wants is to sell the America Gov. with the profits going into his pockets. His "administration" is populated by dolts (most of them rich), e.g., RFK Jr., and somehow he or they are suddenly going to become competent? There's no fixing stupid.
