richyawyingtmv , to technology in Microsoft in EU antitrust crosshairs over Teams, Office tying

Half of every morning meeting is trying to work out wtf is happening with teams in my experience.

A frequent occurrence is when it, without warning, changes your text to right-to-left Arabic layout, so every now and again you get a message from a colleague that reads like they’re trapped in the black lodge

I also had a moment yesterday when pop up messages took over almost my entire screen and I had to force quit teams. If anyone used to get pop up spammed back on MSN Messenger twenty years back it was just like that.

Teams is absolute fucking shite.

PenguinJuice , to world in Kevin Spacey acquitted of all nine sexual offence charges in London trial

So does this mean we're canceling his cancelation?

complacent_jerboa ,

looks like the court of public opinion had its former ruling overturned by [insert whichever court this took place at]

Chozo ,

I'm still having a hard time liking him again after this. Whether or not he committed a crime according to the legal system, he still openly admitted to very predatory behavior. From my understanding of the situation, none of the claims against him were really refuted or disproven, just deemed to be "not that bad, after all", which doesn't really sit right with me.

I probably still won't be watching any of his new stuff, either way. He's still a sex pest.

Not guilty doesn’t mean innocent.

It’s also important to point out that “not guilty” is only a legal distinction.

He’s as innocent as OJ Simpson

It’s another way of saying he’s for enough money/fame that he passes regardless of where the d20 lands

It’s just a lack of hard evidence. The man clearly is a predator.

Of course…

The justice system is racist

Oh STFU, Danny Masterson was found guilty by the same justice system. You win some, you lose some.

Literally different justice systems actually.

ryathal , to news in White House says it does not back Ukraine attacks inside Russia

Of course they don’t, they aren’t interested in a decisive Ukrainian win. The US would be ecstatic if this war lasted a decade with Russia being stuck in a no win situation.

Russia should probably just leave Ukraine then.

That’s ultimately going to happen.

shortwavesurfer , to technology in Dish Network partners with Amazon to offer wireless services

No way do i trust dish to offer good service. I will stick with my T-Mobile Connect $15/mo plan thanks.

Anticorp ,

Boost Mobile is in a competition with Cricket to be the worst possible option for cell phone service.

shortwavesurfer ,

I know nothing about cricket since it runs on AT&T and AT&T hate almost any device that is unlocked. They make it nearly impossible to use an unlocked OEM device on their network. Verizon and T-Mobile are pretty good about letting you use whatever you want.

freeman ,

I mean…i Just moved from Ting/Verizon to Crickett. It works fine. The primary line is a verizon line but the device is unlocked after 60 days per Verizons Policy.

The biggest annoyance with Crickett/ATT is

  1. ATT Passport Wifi cant be disabled permanently and is annoying
  2. Crickett constantly sends spammy SMS messages to me.

I may just move to ATT pay as you go for a bit more. Have dual sim verizon is borderline pointless from a data perspective. And t-mo has shit coverage where i need it.

shortwavesurfer ,

What device? i know AT&T maintains a very strict whitelist and if you are not using Samsung, Pixel, or a device they sell your device is unlikely to be in the whitelist.

freeman ,

Oh it’s an iPhone for sure.

But I also had a google pixel 4a with CalyxOS on it from time to time.

shortwavesurfer ,

Ah, see both of those are whitelisted. Try anything from Motorola or OnePlus and you will quickly find your phone unusable even if it supports the correct radio bands.

Anticorp ,

Cricket also tries to charge you a bunch of fees to pay your fees. They’re predatory towards poor people.

freeman ,

I don’t understand? They have flat rates. But will take 5 bucks off if you do autopay.

I did notice they charged my card even though I had a negative balance (aka a credit). Which is odd.

That said their onboarding process is ridiculous and confusing. Even for me. And they try real hard to charge you 9 dollars for an esim.

But the fees are included in my monthly service charge.

Anticorp ,

It has been years since I tried Cricket, but back then they wanted to charge $5 to pay your bill unless you did it a very particular way. I think it was either pay by check or enroll in auto pay. Plus they had fees for a bunch of other stuff. They charged me $5 on my bill once because I went to the store to ask questions about my bill. Maybe they’re better now, but I would never try again to find out. Plus the actual service was awful. There were dead spots all over my city.

freeman ,

Yeah dont get me wrong. Theres a reason i moved to crickett but havent moved the rest of my family yet, though most of the savings come with multiple accounts.

Like I said i dont like their onboarding process, having to use a burner account/number to get started, then setup an actual account. I also dont really trust their security, specifically with porting and IMEI etc.

That said, their billing is pretty straight forward. Its x dollars a month (60 for my plan) and if you do autopay they will credit 5 bucks. Like I said though, i had a -65 dollar balance, so unsure why i was even charged, i had a credit. And their support is total dogshit. LIke call at noon on a tuesday and still wait 45 minutes through 4 queues to talk to someone that just wants you off the line.

But their billing is pretty straightforward.

Is unemployment calculated differently in Spain? It seems incredible that so many people are looking for work all the time over the last few years.

anti_antidote , to technology in Microsoft in EU antitrust crosshairs over Teams, Office tying

I hope this makes Microsoft unbundle Teams from Office. It’s ridiculous how much of a market advantage this has given Teams and it’s nowhere near worthy of it.

Cheers ,

Isn’t the argument the other way around? No one would pay for this shit, so we have to bundle it with our better products.

That’s kinda like saying we should make phone makers stop bundling chargers because it damages the charger industry…

    Interrupting a belligerent, invasive military supply line is not a war crime.

    Russia should not be illegally occupying Crimea.

    Ask Crimea about Ukraine cutting their water supply and attacking them. I can remember your username anyway, you are a shitposter.

    Varyk ,

    Based on your posts, a fact-checking anti-propagandist would seem like a s***poster to you.

    Ukrainians aren’t very happy about their country being annexed. That source is from, let’s see every single article interviewing Ukrainians since the illegal seizure of Crimea by Russia, breaking the treaty they had with Ukraine.

    Creberc , to worldnews in Russia Ends Another of Ukraine's War Crimes - Fresh Water Flows Again to Crimea

    OP is obviously a ragebaiter. No person is stupid enough to believe this shit other than brainwashed Russians. Move along folks.

    silverbax , to technology in Microsoft in EU antitrust crosshairs over Teams, Office tying

    I remember about a year ago I mentioned on Reddit that Teams was not only a security risk, but the bundling alone would get them in hot water with the EU. Microsoft astroturfers came out en masse to claim I had no idea how vanilla Teams was.

    And here we are. Microsoft always tries to build competitive advantages that break the law and then use them, and yet people still think they would never use the things they actively build and deploy.

    Naive.
