   Not exactly, but I do often find myself trying to imagine how I would react to being the person who discovered that thing.

   Because you’re funded by investors who have been lied to about eventual automation. Netflix delivered DVDs at a loss to build a brand and content licensing for their streaming service.

   Good of them to do this thing to people’s credit cards, inside of a major economic crisis. Google must be close to death! A business needs money to survive, don’tcha know.

   The great firewall should work both ways, otherwise it encourages more selective censorship.

    Why does CC need to do this, but Office 365 and G Suite don't?

    The Skype engineering team is an acquisition with relative autonomy, and is always making weird choices. Wouldn't take that too seriously.

    Pretty happy with OneDrive for Mac these days. They've been investing in improving it, and it shows.

    Go check out /r/office365, this is a fairly irrelevant question to this discussion.

    I don't think the complaints are about office suite access, as that has a fallback in case of failed auth. It's more about IM/VOIP/email, OneDrive/SharePoint, Azure cloud, etc.

    For some reason with the 1809 version of Windows, I've been able to run both Hyper-V and VMWare Workstation simultaneously. Never was able to do that before. Anyway, I eventually switched for docker support, and used this powershell-ba

    IE became abysmal because principled developers didn’t want to continue to work on it. It wasn’t always so.

    So you disagree with the actual definition of a word? This is absolute nonsense. From a legal and a linguistic perspective, neutrality is well defined. Sometimes people just don’t want to hear your crap, and the particular flavour of crap i
