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

    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.

    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.
