The time is 9 PM, somewhere in Nevada...
Microsoft's top executives gather for their weekly meeting where they discuss how to ruin my day
Executive 1: Welcome to the weekly meeting of The Great Evil Villainous League Of Evil Villains Microsoft.
Executive 1: Today we gather here to discuss a grave matter.
Executive 2: No....... You don't mean.......
Executive 3: Everything but that...............
Executive 1: That's right. It's been over a week since Doctor Shinobi had to work on Outcore even though it's been almost 2 years since the game came out!
*All the executives rumble in panic*
Executive 1: Now, my fellow companions of capitalism, we must quickly devise a plan otherwise Doctor Shinobi will be able to work on new games.
Executive 2: Yes....
Executive 3: A plan...
Executive 4: An evil plan...
Executive 2: Let's make French names unreadable for Outcore!
Executive 1: NO. We already did it.
Executive 3: We're rich. Let's use our lawyers to threaten Doctor Shinobi into working on the game, otherwise, we'll sue him!
Executive 17: IMBECILE! Lawyers cost money! We want to stay rich. We need to think about something else...
The poor underpaid intern who makes coffee for the executives: What if we add "File Explorer" to the title of every open folder?
Everyone: ....
Executive 51: What???
The poor underpaid intern who makes coffee for the executives: I mean Outcore breaks every time we change anything in a Windows update. The developer probably checks if a window is open by looking for its exact name. Surely, something will break If we add a "File Explorer" to the name of every folder and also translate it into a different word when a non-English copy of Windows is installed
Everyone: ?????.........................??.................. GENIUS!
Patch notes
- Fixed a bug where K-Lev's sonar would break near the end of the game on non-English copies of Windows. Thanks, Microsoft.
EDIT: Just to clarify, I'm not actually mad at Microsoft. There is no way they could know such a minor UI change would break Outcore, nor should they care since it affects very few programs (like Outcore and... maybe viruses)
