Have to use Windows for work (I’ve asked), the ads have been getting worse and worse on my work laptop. Today got a game ad notification… That’s clearly too far, right? Like I have to clear notifications, so I have to see it

If they uninstalled the xbox app they’d have no way of coordinating their sea of thieves matches with the employees that work on a console
Incidentally this makes me want to put the following plot into a sitcom:
- Company lacks a computer and assigns an employee an xbox instead
- They’re expected to use browser versions of slack, outlook, etc on the built-in edge browser
- Their request for a keyboard is denied
- This plot line goes background, but still appears in this form: any time that character’s input is considered in email or slack or whatever it’s ultra-short and contains tons of xbox-like abbreviations like “gg”
- It ends up turning this character’s whole style into “man of few words”. Even in person they turn to him and his response after a really long wait is “We do Anne’s idea. Meeting over”
- He flies up the corporate ladder as a result
- Occasional shots inside his office as a high-level exec include a big TV and an xbox. The fact this is his work station is not overtly mentioned. You never see a laptop.
