Support NeoGAF

The first change is to end support for all third-party Cortana skills on September 7. Then, in early 2021, we’ll stop supporting the Cortana app for mobile (iOS and Android), because you can now manage your calendar and email, join meetings, and do so much more via our new productivity-focused experiences

Not a surprise, it's getting close to 7 years.

What happens to the first 2 devices that parry?

 

[Compsiox]

Good. Remove it from Windows too please

That was first parry, you lose.

Should have let 2 other people attack first.

I was not aware than shields and swords had cortana in them...

I suck at thread titles.

Man I'm glad I'm in a country not supported by Cortana, wouldn't want this crap on my system.

 

[Grinchy]

Damn, they should replace it with Craig. Imagine that voice reading your grocery list back to you.

I bought my Harman Kardon Invoke speaker two years ago. Sound on this thing is amazing and I used Cortana for things like controlling Spotify. Best Buy had it on clearance for $50, originally $200. Microsoft just gave me a $50 gift card for deactivating Cortana on it. So in the end I basically got an awesome Bluetooth speaker for free.

Cortana makes instilling windows terrifying. It's doing it's thing for a few minutes and you start working on something else. Next thing you know you are getting yelled at about connecting to the internet and installing updates. Please remove from windows all together

Diego is a parrydevice.






I was going to make a joke about Rampancy, but you had to go and fuck up the thread title and now here we are.

Congratulations.

So long.

I'm just gonna say I think even if it's not supported in your region, it may still be installed.

H/K are good, was lucky to get a laptop with internal h/k speakers.

M$ didn’t anticipate Cortna to fail so hard

Came to post this, beaten out like The Created from a mainline Halo game story.

Was the 50 refund a personal thing for you, or is it just a form to fill out? I won one of these at a tech conference and barely use it, but I'll take 50 bucks if MS is handing it out.

I got an email from Microsoft recognizing I’ve used Cortona on it recently, so it asked to verify the MAC address (listed on the bottom of the Invoke) and gave me the $50.
