they want the ability it provides to die.
Terminal Server licensing will be bringing them in a tidy amount of money from on-prem enterprises, but it's true that Windows App has a heavy focus on Azure and will definitely be aiming to push people in that direction - it can't even connect to remote Windows PCs.
Got to be able to place a phone call. And scan the surface for enemy boats.

Think of Anthony Weiner's furious, "The gentleman is correct in sitting!" (before his fall from grace), or Musk's Nazi salute that looked suspiciously like a Nazi salute, or George W. Bush winning a free pair of shoes.

This ancient Dwemer freehold straddles the border of the Grazelands and the Ashlands, and served historically as an important neutral ground for diplomatic talks. Its remaining inhabitants are not so eager for polite conversation.
