  @EvanOwen @tmnxeq @RhoRider I get where you are coming from. It does help *if implemented well*, just like any other software or process. It is way to early to judge effectiveness since most of the businesses are just having people use ChatGPT for random stuff and using copilot in office 365. When I did software consulting many clients would tell me they were “in the cloud” when all they meant is they have office 365 subs and a terrible sharepoint inplementation. AI is the same way. It will be several *years* before AI is used effectively in enterprise scenarios.

  @SeftBunnY HP Victus, RTX 4050 have better performance but the RAM is slow, Office Home & Student is permanent you can pick the ASUS TUF if you want heavy tasks like compiling or rendering idk cuz of strong cpu, also the Microsoft Office 365 is just trial

  @Pirat_Nation I assume this is related to the issue that caused Office 365 email to collapse worldwide earlier this week.

  I hate the fact that the "Microsoft Office" suite of apps is now the "Microsoft Copilot App" with the fire of 1000 suns. Even trying to work out how to download it when I login to Office365 is a complete nightmare!

  @_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.

  It's been a stereotypical Monday. Was awake most of the night. Good news is I didn't have to get up at a certain time for anything. Woke enough to coherent at 1100 am. Text messages from a IT customer about hacked email. Determined that last week he got an email saying to check out this file. It was a PDF stored somewhere else. It grabbed his email password. 😒🫤 Logged in & changed his password. Waited for him to get into office so I could clean his PC remotely. Then reset email password again and give him new one. Meanwhile my van which I bought for $4000 "as is" in February 2001 has decided it's time for the ABS module to fail! 😐 It's a 2009 VW Routan (aka rebadged Chrysler Minivan). I've accepted the fact that I got 5 years and I probably need to just replace it. 😕 Cost of repairs probably around $2500-$3000. And then Finally just saw MS is having issues with Exchange email and parts of the Office 365 product suite. Hopefully everyone else is having a good day.

  @KeithMalinak Autocorrect may have been taking a few days off. Here's a real-life example from my own workplace. Through the miracle of SharePoint and Office365, I'm sharing a document with a Project Manager and we're adding questions and answers as I am refining his request for a change to our production environment. He edited something in the document abruptly last week resulting in colliding words and other jumbled things that I couldn't parse. I highlighted the text and requested, "Please fix these typos when you get a moment. " He fixed the typos and left me a comment in response: "Compelted"

  @MicrosoftIndia Appears you are registered as a gaming entity leading to additional charges by banks for office 365 subscriptions... How is it valid for the consumer? Should @Microsoft not fix the way the tax code for the entity? Or discount those charges (+GST) to the consumer?

  @S4m4_VT @Pirat_Nation Not a Linux problem, 99% of games do works on Linux tho but via workaround (That got simplified by steam in a remarkable way) As for softwares, welp you're not going to use Office 365. You have to adapt and find the right tools that works with your machine.

  The new revelation regarding windows GDID probably has pissed off various “3 letter” agencies around the world. It’s been a staple of easily tracking you and I. Too bad. Glad it’s been outed. I’ve switched out the various laptops I use for online activities such as this one for a certain Linux distribution as well as modified their hardware a bit. Yes, you can be tracked by what’s in your computer. Change it around a bit if possible. Don’t use the same box you pay bills and work remotely on to get on social media. -Proton VPN- DON’T EVER use a Microsoft account. Sign into your windows computer with an old school local account. This is a must. You can search for how to do it. Office 365 can be permanently activated on your computer as a local installation. Do it. (Massgrave) Better yet, use Libre Office and enjoy not being tracked by Office 365. I Google scans your Gmail. Be aware of it. There’s better email providers (Proton). Nobody is perfect but some are orders of magnitude less “nosey.” Download DoNotSpy11. You want to turn OFF virtually everything. You’ll be amazed at what you can shut down. Turn OFF your location / eye tracking / motion detection on your laptop if you don’t do anything else. There is at least one windows GDID changer powershell script I tested. It worked. If you sign into a MS account, you’ll get the same GDID right back so don’t use that MS account going forward. Not going into phone safety or Flock cameras or new vehicles in this post. I’ll just say this: Any time your phone/iPad etc is not inside of an rf-proof bag/case, it’s going to talk to something somewhere, even if it is “off.” You can buy those bags on Amazon cheap. Get one. If you have a newer car (on-star) it tells servers where the car is constantly. Review: Learn Linux. It’s open source, not full of spyware. Get a ham radio license. Keep your 10 year old Toyota forever. Pay with cash sometimes just to switch it up a bit and make the cashier learn to count 😎. Be aware of what devices you use that tattle on your activities and govern yourself accordingly. A little misdirection or just being quieter on social media never hurts, either. Okay end of my coffee-laden ramblings. Hopefully this helped some of you. 🇺🇸

  In order to penetrate an Office 365 organization, you have to get through the Entra ID administrator. Non-trivial. Right now the Claude connector is asking for Read-Only permissions on a very restricted surface of the tenant. That’s the foot in the door: maybe that gets you through the admins, but it’s not game changing for customers. Sure, you can ask about your meetings or who sends you lots of email but you can’t DO anything, You need write. You need delete. If Claude asked for read-write, or any larger scope beyond the user, then you’d hear a big record scratch. They will be instantly shut down by the admins and CISOs. But CoPilot = Microsoft. That means: they have everything, the enterprise admin already trusts them, which means more permissions and thus better features. Right now Entra ID is a moat and this Claude connector is no threat, Perhaps this will get Microsoft off its ***. Or maybe they just acquire Anthropic.

  @esrtweet I think Excel is the grand bottleneck, or was last I checked. Imagine trying to switch a bank, say your local credit union, over to LibreOffice or any of the StarOffice lineage. Doable in principle, but realistically all the macros are broken (the version of BASIC differs from Excel) and the median banker doesn't have muscle memory for the new keyboard shortcuts anyway. You can obviously use Office 365 from a browser, but you lose access to some features (again, last I checked) and it's still Microsoft. Linux is absolutely fine for everything I use it for. The problem is mostly just lack of attention on things that people who have already adopted it don't themselves need. Window Manager wise, there are several where it's hard to tell the difference between that and Windows or MacOS (or the difference is ~entirely good things).

  @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)

  @medsci_yb3r @MicrosoftLearn @Microsoft The problem is that the Office 365 tenant is linked to the organization's email. Then any app on a private device that uses the org email &...tenant to sign- in is linked with office(.)com, even though the linked apps have nothing to do with Office 365. It has further consequen..
