What’s going on at Microsoft?
Xbox has fired its first COO, Helen Chiang, after only a couple months on the job, and there’s already speculation as to why.
But the bigger story is that Microsoft is offering buyouts to 60% of their global workforce… 25% of their staff! That’s a crazy high amount of layoffs, and Wall Street seems to LOVE it. Here’s more from Clownfish TV.
The United Kingdom is proposing a “YouTube tax” to help bankroll the failing BBC.
Even if you don’t watch television, if you stream anywhere — YouTube, Netflix, Disney Plus, etc. — you’ll still have to pay.
Thanks for reminding us why we dumped the tea…Here’s more from Clownfish TV.
The components for the PlayStation 6 are rumored to top over $700, meaning this console will almost certainly be more than $1,000 at launch, and of course, will not have the ability to play physical media.
This isn’t a very promising start to the next (last?) generation of gaming consoles… Here’s more from Clownfish TV.
The leftists at Bluesky and REDDIT are banning any mention of Elon Musk’s new flying cars. Censorship and outright bans go hand in hand for these Nazis.
You’re NOT allowed to talk about the flying Tesla Roadster in some REDDIT subreddits, or they will probably pull it down for being “political.” Say what?!
Meanwhile, Bluesky is melting down because Elon did a thing…These people need to crawl back down their hole. Here’s more from Clownfish TV.
Skydance acquires Warner Brothers and the Cartoon Network, and suddenly, more than a gigabit of Cartoon Network information suddenly gets leaked on the Internet.

The Trump administration is suspending Microsoft from a green card program as they crack down on fraudulent H-1B visas.
We talk about how the US tech industry basically runs on H-1B visas and we even got to this point. In addition to Microsoft, Adobe also appears to be in trouble. Here’s more from Clownfish TV.
The Batman: Part II is on hold indefinitely while director Matt Reeves deals with some family issues.
Now people are wondering if Skydance won’t take the opportunity to just cancel the movie outright as they look to slash budgets post merger. And… it’s possible. Here’s more from Clownfish TV.
Disney and Netflix are teaming up like it’s 2015. Yes, days after a judge ruled that Paramount and Warner Bros can merge, now Disney and Netflix seem to be teaming up.
Disney is putting more and more content on Netflix, which makes you wonder why bother with Disney Plus in the first place? Could this be a prelude to a more formal union of the two streaming giants? Never say never. Here’s more from Clownfish TV.
Walmart had been dabbling with the idea of “dynamic pricing,” but apparently is backing off. This comes after Wendy’s first experimented and found customers angry and upset.
Under dynamic pricing, prices can fluctuate in a split second. There are trackers that can even alter prices depending on the wealth of individuals standing nearby. So if a rich person strolls down the aisles, the prices would suddenly climb.
Walmart liked the idea, but after Wendy’s took a big financial hit pressing ahead with it, Walmart decided it’s premature to do so at this time. Here’s more from Clownfish TV.
Former Disney CEO Bob Chapek is out for BLOOD!
