Looks like it uses wifi and bluetooth. So anything just “ON”.

You know its not all that hard to reproduce if someone wants to. Except when we do it, its against the law.

I wonder why they are pushing so hard on new outlook. Its one of their most used products…and people REALLY dont like changes to it.

“I have two Microsoft Outlooks and neither one is working”

I use Thunderbird for my stuff. I like it for personal email. Its good enough.

Took 330 ms to load for me. Maybe your internet connection is a bit slow? Its also getting hit by multiple big sites at the same time.

Our office is slowly making the transition. Its been fantastic slowly getting rid of IIS, windows boxes, etc…

The examples are pretty funny. Is VERY slow. Like I thought old outlook was a bit on the slow side for syncing. The videos they provide are remarkably slow in every day interactions.

Kinda reminds me of creaper world.

Same, i enjoy it here!

This style of posting lends itself to having “hot takes” get upvoted and actual discussions have middling success.

At least with us, you can chose the tech and put it up yourself. Like right now you are using slrpnk.net and im using piefed.social on a lemmy.world server. Without any issues. We (the collective WE) made this happen without huge billionaires having a strangle hold on the way we interact. Its not perfect, but its better than a LOT of the alternatives.

Fantastic series, thanks for introducing me!

The screenshot really should have a cat photo on it.

Looks great! GL!

Cant know until we try!

I wish meshtastic did any of that. Its more like a worse pager. Fun hobby to get into but its not all that great at reliable packets.

I have some friends that are thinking of investing into some HiLow systems and making our own intranet. Or a meshnet. Seems like a fun project.

And no random bot scans, no agencies, no nothing but our own sites.

Windows has better accessability features than linux does. Itsn ot talked about much but ive been in meetings with people with disabilities, survivors of accidents, etc… and Windows is the only real option. If you are blind there are standard programs that they use.

Its the one area i think linux could use real work. A couple of places ive put in pull requests to help out from time to time.

Otherwise linux is generally better ;)

Its automatic in piefed and peertube. Its part of the cross post feature.

Yep the thing is to learn at least one, then its VERY easy to jump into another (usually). The simple things such as loops, functions, classes, etc…etc… are all about the same nowadays. Its more about what you are trying to do rather than the language you find yourself using.

If I had to do it again, I would try out either python (for a on computer solution), javascript for web stuff, or C/C++ if you want to go crazy and learn low level stuff. Go/Rust is fine too. Any language is ok really. Just try it out and see what you like!

My entire career is mostly 90% SQL and CRUD. To each their own!

Plus almost everyone developing the platforms we are using is doing it for negative money. Like a LOT of negative money. And its not really all that many people. We think they are huge teams but a literal handful are keeping a lot of the fedi up and running.

They are doing it out of a passion.

…or hate for other platforms? Hate can be a great motivator.
