Ah, Microsoft.
Always a step behind, with the wrong step.
It is supposed to irritate you. That is one of the reasons they do this.
Totally agree with you this was planned out to prove a point, not sure exactly what point but way too much seemed to fall into place.
That is correct. The fact that his “invention” is just some alarm clock guts stuffed in a box has been well known on FR since Saturday if not earlier. I’m an EE and could tell it wasn’t anything remotely creative from the first pic I saw of it.
This whole episode reminds of the “hands up don’t shoot” BS in that it is totally without reality. Just the utter falsity is striking. It is remarkable how the left can drive a narrative without one shred of actual fact underpinning it.
How nice. I suppose that now he can make sword to be used in his first beheading.
Not a whizz kid; only repackaged a Radio Shack clock to look like a bomb.
Unless the story we have so far is inaccurate, this makes no sense. Why would a teacher want to see the innards of an old clock? Examining the boy's "invention" would have quickly shown any competent engineering teacher that the boy had invented nothing.
The boy would have understood that before he brought the device to school.
If he didn't bring the clock-in-a-box to school to show off his inventive prowess, why did he do it? The most likely possible answer is the one that leftists don't want to mention.
WTF Microsoft? I’m glad to be running Linux.
