Imagine training your entire life to become an astronaut, and then you finally get to leave earth’s orbit on a historic mission…
But you still have to deal with Microsoft bullshit.*Microslop
It’s an accurate name. The company has explicitly told us that they are a slop-first cloud company.
I’ll probably attract downvotes for this, but I find ‘Microslop’ as cringeworthy as old staples like Micro$haft or Crapple.
Like, yeah, they’re shitty companies. But calling them childish names just comes across as petty and insecure, kind of like when Trump gives someone a dumb nickname.
Nah, microslop is a great name, especially because they throw tantrums about the name. It’s very descriptive of what they have become.
nasa is about to remote into the computer
I’ve dealt with slow RDP sessions while fixing servers in the past, but the lag on this connection must really suck.
At least while they’re in orbit you’d be looking at a few hundred ms of latency (due to satellite to ground station bounces). If they need to RDP while at the moon, it’s going to be a couple of seconds latency
“Houston, we have a Windows problem”
“Outlook is looking bleak, I’m seeing double.”
“Cannot open Windows in space.”
“Disk space issues.”
Can I ask why people still use dedicated email software? I’m sure there’s a reason. Maybe just familiarity, but I’ve never once opened my email inbox from anything other than a browser. It seems like a royal PITA.
Thunderbird is pretty neat tho
I don’t disagree, but I don’t use it either.
Ultimately Email is old technology, all the web frontends just get in the way more or less.
I use an email host that has roadmapped switching their frontend to one I don’t really like, so figured I’d get ahead of the curve and switch to a client that was open source and compatible with the typical standards — so I could learn it and never have to deal with another client again.
Ended up using Thunderbird, even for my old inboxes at the typical web companies
One client, all my emails in one spot, don’t have to deal with stupid UX changes being forced on users.
