The irony is that this site is clearly vibecoded, especially the https://status.microslop.com/ https://status.microslop.com/ page, which "works" by requesting `https://outlook.office365.com/owa/healthcheck.htm https://outlook.office365.com/owa/healthcheck.htm` which is nonexistent and returns a 500 error but the code doesn't seem to detect that (and I don't think it could even if it wanted to, due to CORS).
- zouhair 8mo agoIsn't that the point? As if Microsoft is the one making it.
- Retr0id 8mo agoIf that was the point then why not mimic Microsoft's actual design?
- giancarlostoro 8mo agoIsn't the design inspired by Microsoft's Windows 8 flat design?

- perching_aix 8mo agoWould be surprised, looks nothing like it. Certainly not to my eyes anyways.
- dominicrose 8mo agoIMO Windows phone design and Windows 8 Metro were too minimalistic and squared like this, but TBH the current version of Windows has nice design and you can customize the theme and other things. The issue with Windows now is the unjustified delays and bugs. I think professional PCs suffer the most from bugs because my own PC works fine. Not sure it's completely Microsoft's fault, could be the company. Sometimes the problem can also be the hardware and it's also not completely MS at fault since many manufacturers can produce PC and at widely varying prices.
- oersted 8mo agoNot at all, one of the key features of that design system was that the boxes had no borders, and they were differentiated by their flat background fill color instead. There's borders galore here.
- blitzar 8mo ago> Microsoft's actual design They wouldnt know what one is if it hit them in the face
- fireflash38 8mo agoThere's a consistent Microsoft design?
- kypro 8mo agoHard to know if this is itself slop or self-aware intentional slop to make a point. The "GALLONS OF SLOP GENERATED" counter suggests some intentionality, and the "Everything seems to be working. Probably a glitch in our monitoring." caption on the status page maybe suggests that is also intentional.
- sph 8mo agoIt's slop all the way down. The tech world will soon become https://xkcd.com/2347/ https://xkcd.com/2347/ but everything is vibecoded trash.
