Should have been using Betterbird.

It’s fucking email. This problem was solved in 1988. Why do you need Outlook to begin with?

To ask Sloppilot if the moon is fake.

Every government or bigcorp employee I've ever met does not know the difference between the software Outlook and the concepts of both email and digital calendars

The original RFC for SMTP is forty-six years old.

There are zero valid reasons to use micro$lop for a space mission. 98% of Lemmy users could have built a more robust solution at 1/1,000,000th the cost.

But the point was to blow money doing the thing we did 60 years ago.

Happens all the time on my work computer. It’s amazing that this hasn’t happened earlier, makes me think they didn’t really practice this thing much.

There's this one software we have to use for our emergency response and it's buggy as hell. Crashes on opening on phones, tablets, even the PC application. The browser version only works marginally better but is slow and can take minutes to pull or submit single queries.
