Love being interrupted when my monitor asks me to accept user agreements

Coming soon to monitors with integrated webcams: please drink verification can to continue working!

Sadly they've only given us Mountain Dew flavored Doritos but not the other way around yet...

Doesn't microsoft have that patented?

I know you guys are joking, but there use to be a Microsoft energy drink, that was only available to employees.

The blue one actually tasted really good. Was available on campus for several years in nearly every building. :)

Actually, it's Sony's patent 8,246,454 which has that "interactive networked video game" feature (https://patents.google.com/patent/US8246454B2/en), and AFAIK there isn't a "drink verification can"-style patent yet.

Not sure if it's this one in question, or even from a real patent at all, but I think this is what GP was referencing; it made the rounds a few years back.

I suspect these are just rebadged generic soda cans but there is something oddly dystopian about a company drink.

The verification can version specifically comes from 4chan: https://i.imgur.com/dgGvgKF.png
