They can't migrate control panel to the settings app in a time measured in decades, but I'm supposed to believe that they're going to magically produce something like this that does what it claims? Go home Microsoft. You're drunk.

The engineers who built this UFO project probably would have been able to move Control Panel to settings. Microsoft is a big company.
It sounds like the software didn't work out when you tried it. What issues did you have? Or were you using this chance to dunk on M$ without actually giving it a shot? I think Microsoft has its issues, but this response was boring.
I like seeing the context, imo it is important.
How is not moving the control panel important context or related to this product? I'm not seeing it.
Context lies in how this corporation approaches bars it set itself, and UX the end user have to deal with resulting from it.

When a game studio releases new game, looking at previous games they released is a solid indicator of what quality we can expect. Same goes for software companies making new piece of software. Combined with how LLMs seem super useful until I want them to do something original, I would be very sceptical even in case a corp like Apple came up with this announcement. Seeing it comes from Microsoft, not trusting it isn't result of "hating them is popular", its result of experience.

Sorry, but I still think you're reaching. You're entitled to your opinion though so I'll leave it at that. Have a great weekend.
