it wasn't my idea, it was the only option prodivded to me. i didn't have a work email there yet as i just started working, and it's work with children - seeing their teachers name pop up and then someone introducting themselves as a substitute is fine, but seeing some guy join in with a random email and name you never heard of would be alarming to the parents
it was a work account used exclusively for teams for online lectures, there was nothing of interest on it, i checked lol, i'm nosy
it was during a time when i was just substituting so i didn't have my own work email, and i ain't joining with my personal one when i need to be professional. after the bullshit with that account getting linked to my local system account i indeed used teams in the browser, i just didn't anticipate microsoft bullshit vol. 2 to hit me months later when i tried to log into my minecraft account and couldn't because my coworkers email got baked into it! but now i know i guess
how on the fucking earth are you the biggest company and have hands down the worst login imaginable. you know for a fact people have multiple accounts for your platform, it's incredibly common to have a work specific micorosoft account after all. AND YET you lock in a specific email for login??? and you don't even put a bloody "i'd like to log in with a different email"???? oh there's a "use a different login method" button it's all okay right? wrong that button still doesn't let you change the login email! but now you can log in with a code sent to it :).
what if that """""convenience"""" you're trying to give people by checks notes, not including an incredibly common button that takes you to the default login page without a specific email baked into it, is actually an impossible pain in the ass? what if that email is someone else's and then just hit the "remember me" out of habit? go fuck yourself :). go into the browser setting and manually delete the cookies or if you can't or don't know how to do that then just fuck yourself :)
not to even fucking mention how if you try to log into teams desktop client app that info is going to get fucking applied to the entire windows account??? without asking about it clearly either it just fucking does that! it just fucking links to your local account instsntly
who asked for that microsoft? what deranged motherfucker in your board of directors came in high off his tits and uttered the cursed phrases needed for those feature to fucking exist?
and is that guy the only one allowed to speak? the only who's vocabulary extends past "great idea! let's do that"?
how is your user account management worse and more annoying than any virus i had?
i literally just needed to log in to someone's account once, for an hour, to substitute for them in one call. and that silly little action has taken fucking hours to undo, and all done with force "how to delete someone else's email from microsoft login"? delete your fucking cookies or team cache. "how to unlink a microsoft account from windows"? don't forget to input your pc password! dw about how we didn't ask for it when we just linked it to your local account, you need it now :) oh and unlinking isn't removing, you gotta do that one too!
there has been genuinely nothing else in the past decade that has made me more frustrated, more fucking seething with anger, than dealing with the fallout of needing to use someone else's microsoft account for an hour
i will admit, i do not remember where i got that info from, i thought it was part of the reply to the petition that was making rounds a week or so ago but i'm not sure now
yeah and their government is planning on restricting VPN use because of that, they're not going to stop being dickheads, brits need to get their voices heard sooner rather than later
the brits really need to learn from the french how to protest. it's been nearly a month and i haven't heard of even a measly car being set on fire, just one petition that got a reply akin to "lol, nah". the french would've set a car on fire for less is all i'm saying
hmm, fair enough. though i still feel like being given an answer (however correct) on a platter would make me less likely to double check, and when i google things on my own the double checking happens as i look for the answer (because i myself have to look through various sources)
yes absolutely, when you google things you have to look at sources to find the information you need. it's easy to notice if a piece of information is consistent across various sources, or if it's just one guy saying something.
and AI cuts all of that off, even an AI "overview" can be harmful as people assume that the overview has the same information as the sources... when it can just be made up. AI answers don't give you an easy way to double check the information its giving you. is the AI's opinion a regurgitated opinion of the scientific majority? or is it a regurgitated opinion of John McBadOpinion?
what? (._.) <- this has been my face the entire conversation, sometimes (o_O) <- this
this is not what moving the goal post means. at least look up things before saying them
i would make a rational argument, if i thought my argument would be met with an equally rational response. but so far you haven't really shown off your ability to do so, so i'd rather outsource that task to someone who at least would make some money from a conversation with you
i'm really not enraged, not even close to that. i'm calmly bewildered by your far-reaching thought process
it's you who picked a hypertechnicality ("property of their parents" who btw. aren't the ones making the kid do work here? it's the school doing that, in case you forgot) to be mad about
