  @DeepValue47 On Azure. 👎🏻 If they force their Office dominance they’ll likely force @PalantirTech into the office document space. Office 365 web word support is terrible and everyone knows it. If Palantir integrates Team equivalent capability, the war will be on.

  I pay for Office365 so the @onedrive experience (esp uploading from mobile) shouldn't be this terrible In contrast, @googledrive is flawless. #Microsoft #onedrive #googledrive

  @12Knocksinna @Office365 It has become too complex for Microsoft to manage as proven by the numerous issues they cause every day

  @CalebInvests_ Ackman bought $MSFT in Feb when it dipped and looked more compelling on valuation. He probably sees Microsoft as more "embedded" in enterprise, Office 365, Azure, Copilot with stickier revenue and better pricing power compared to $META, which is heavily tied to ad cycles and consumer attention. Wall Street isn’t missing anything big, it’s mostly about price and margin of safety. MSFT just offered a better entry at the time. I believe his entry was around $370 for $MSFT that was a great entry and it provided a great margin of safety. $META would need to go down into $450 area for same margin of safety $MSFT was at $370.

  Recently I've been thinking about how though microsoft does get a lot of hate, if you judge the company by its good products its actually genuinely a pretty good company. It just gets dragged down by the ****** versions of windows and the hell-scape that has become office 365.

  Dan Greller (@dgreller) reported 14 minutes ago

  @bretgreenstein @KarolCodes Agreed. Historically, things moved at a slow enough pace that there was ample time to reasonably estimate the cost of an associate's tech stack. The value obtained from that stack was self-evident, exceeding its cost. For example, no rational firm was doing an ROI on whether a new associate should have a PC or an Office 365 license. It was table stakes. In this new AI world, both the costs and the potential value are radically changing on a routine basis. It makes it that much harder to have sound and stable financial governance models.

  Noticed Microsoft is still shoving stuff down our throats. I have Office 365 without the AI stuff, and noticed the app now has a diamond in the top right corner on apps which is where they push to you AI upgrades.. Just give me the app without all the extra pushed crap.

  @Mettshish @onestromelufan @NetflixAnime It’s the stupid Indians that work there that caused this whole mess, they have been doing this for a very long time and have been getting away with it for a long long time. Until now this plague has started to reveal itself into the public eye. Office 365 not working in space was just the tip of the iceberg people

  Security Weekly Podcast Network (@SecWeekly) reported 19 minutes ago

  Passwords get stolen. MFA prompts get approved. Rob Allen explains why some organizations are now locking SaaS apps like Office 365, GitHub, and Salesforce to specific trusted IP paths instead of exposing login access to the entire internet. Even if an attacker has credentials, they still can’t connect unless traffic comes from the approved location. Is location-based access control becoming the next layer after MFA? #Cybersecurity #SaaS #IdentitySecurity

  @Microsoft365 To use Scout, you need: 1. to be part of the Frontier Preview Program 2. need Office 365 Copilot Access 3. need local admin privileges on the device 4. your IT Admin needs to configure Frontier. 5. your IT Admin needs to configure InTune policy for Scout 6. your local IT Admin needs to agree to (attest to) and opt-in their organisation to third party inference paths. Note: "When data is sent to GitHub Copilot, M365 data residency, retention, eDiscovery, legal hold, Data Loss Prevention (DLP), Sensitivity and Confidentiality Labels, audit, SLAs, and the Customer Copyright Commitment do not apply." Here is why this matters: If 'AI' extracts a list of sensitive intellectual property or customer data from a labeled document and pastes it into a new response, that new response has no label. A user could easily copy and paste that text into an external email or a public generative AI tool without triggering any data loss prevention alerts. Regulatory frameworks require strict auditing of where sensitive data travels. Because the new content does not inherit the source classification, your automated compliance systems lose track of that data. The responsibility shifts entirely to the end user to manually classify every single output generated by the AI session, which frequently leads to human error.

  @AiwithLucas_ Your analogies fail. These AI agents are still using M$ tools. If Netflix used Blockbuster as the source for their videos, Blockbuster would still be around. The Goodyear analogy works because just as self driving cars still rely on tires, AI will still rely on M$ services. Switching to "background infrastructure" does not hurt M$. M$ makes MORE money off of server apps and cloud services, such as Active Directory, Exchange Server, SQL Server, Azure, etc, than it does from the Office 365 services you're talking about AI reducing. Where do you think AI agents live?

• 
  Dan (@Holmyverse) reported 22 minutes ago

  @FinanceDirCFO But rather "subprime AI", right? SaaS stocks go down because people don't get business, and think that Dropbox, LinkedIn, Spotify, Office 365, Slack, Netflix, Instagram etc. will go out of business simply because "anyone can vibe code their own version".

  @KingDamilotun XLOOKUP (This only works on latest version of excel like Office 365 and has inbuilt error msg) INDEX-MATCH (works on older version of Excel, but more complex to write. The downside here is that you'd have to wrap it in an IFERROR function to return an error msg)

  @EvaAnanova Bro i remember I got put on a migration from a file server to office 365 and share point and this was a key reason I left IT. My manager refused to listen to anyone and forced us to go ahead with this just before Christmas. It didn't work 90% of the machines had 4gb ram

  Brian Murray (@intheblueyonder) reported 31 minutes ago

  @_stormed @xPraveen07 I used to agree, but at this point, IT is just factory farming. Nobody knows what they’re doing, so if they can just use remote office 365 and basic tools, that’s what IT departments hire. I had one guy quit because “they use Linux on a server”. Ok buddy, don’t let the door hit you on the way out.

  I've been thinking about this a lot. I've been using Windows most of my life, and in general preferred it to other operating systems. Windows 10 was solid, it just worked and got out of the way. Enter Windows 11. I read all the bad online press, and even defended Windows. Until I installed Windows 11 on my new home PC. It's hard to describe how badly MS ****** up Windows as a consumer operating system. Some of the top things that drove (and still does) me insane; 1. The initial install is quick enough. But then, enter the Co-Pilot and Office 365 prompts. I had to decline Co-Pilot probably 7 or 8 times during the install. Absolute madness. I do not want to use it, and have no interest in it. Just stop with this madness. 2. Create a local user? Nope! You must have a Microsoft account linked to OneDrive. I bought a desktop PC to play games, and do things locally. I do not want or need a cloud based account linked to and blocking my PC setup. 3. I want to create a separate local profile for my 6 year old daughter. Nope! Can't do that... your kid needs a Microsoft account. Absolute ******* madness. 4. Finally I get everything setup... cool now let's get Minecraft installed for kids. I buy Minecraft in the store. Go through the hugely convoluted user switching process, login to daughters account. Minecraft's not there. WTF? Game is tied to, and only available to play under my login. 5. Figure out I have to setup family sharing. The UX to get this going is such a ******* hot mess I almost give up. One of the worst user journeys I've ever done in my life. After all the effort, I cannot share Minecraft with my daughter's account. To this day I haven't been able to figure out why, as all the prerequisites are met. So now as a parent, and owner of the paying account, I can't buy games for my kids. Serious WTF moment. 6. Never ending daily barrage of Co-Pilot and OneDrive notifications. 7. The overall UX of Windows 11 has also just been neutered. File Explorer is now as bad as MacOS, and the OS is laggy as hell for simple tasks. And OMG, ads everywhere. Always. For an OS I paid thousands for. I can't imagine ever wanting to say upgrade my parents to Windows 11, it simply just won't work them. The only thing really keeping me on Windows right now, is Flight Sim 2024. But TBH I've been very disappointed in that as well, outside of fancy graphics, it's very meh compared to previous versions. Modern Linux distros are looking very enticing right now. All the games I play via Steam work on Linux, and Nvidia driver support lately is good. Microsoft should take long hard look at this. If customers move off off Windows, they move off off your entire ecosystem. No one is using your cloud products from any other OS, which seems to be the only thing MS cares about lately. Folks like @marchr and @pavandavuluri really need to undo this absolute shitshow, PM drivel driven, that MS released in Windows 11.

  @paul_e_jones No, I have zero business with GoDaddy. But I have to deal with them for an issue that they caused through Microsoft office 365's design. The problem is that a domain name that belongs to my client used to belong to a company that used to have a Microsoft office 365 account provided through the vendor. GoDaddy. GoDaddy sells office 365 accounts. What happens is a domain name previously used with Microsoft office 365 but then the account expires and is never renewed because the company that held the domain name went out of business and sold in bankruptcy. Two company transitions later and we acquire the domain. So we go to set up Microsoft office 365 only to be hit with a message that we cannot provision the domain on their platform because of a previous tenant that just doesn't exist anymore in the real world. That business vanished a long time ago.

  @OrevaZSN Why would anyone be trying to edit a PDF in Word? Edit it in Acrobat, where it belongs. And Word isn't a DTP app. Some of us know how to use it very well and don't have these issues. Not saying Office 365 isn't a hell hole, but at least use the right app for the job at hand

  @codewith55 Your first step for a new Windows computer is not what to install, but what to uninstall. 1) OneDrive 2) MS-Account (use local login) 3) Copilot 4) Office365 5) Manufacturer & MS Bloatware. Then start your installs. 1) A real browser (Brave, Firefox) 2) LibreOffice 3) VLC

  @gabefollower Those lawsuits from those companies are straight up retarded. They claim Valve is monopoly and then in next sentence they say that 30% cut is too much. What they think will happen if Valve lowers it to like 15%. Consumers will choose Steam less? Hell no, they will like Steam even more then. As a result those companies will cry wolf even more that Steam is monopoly. Competition offers trash service, tries to bait with discounts and loses and them cries like babies. C’mon now. Epic owner cries every day about Valve and Steam and his “Game Launcher” is still mega slow and looks more like launcher for Office 365 than game launcher.
