i_am_hiding, in Email clients

Cannot Start Microsoft Outlook. Cannot open the Outlook window. The set of folders cannot be opened. The operation has failed.

As the de-facto IT admin in a small business, this message haunts my dreams and I hate that I know it by heart. Time to make a new mail profile and configure all the accounts again. Its not like it’s the seventh time on this computer. It’s not like I’ve reinstalled Outlook three times already as per Microsoft’s “accepted solution”.

There’s a reason I don’t use Microsoft software on my hardware.

Yerbouti,

One time, when I had to use outlook, someone called me asking why I wasn’t replying to emails since like 3 days. Turned out Outlook had decided I could receive emails, but when I was replying, the email would put in a special folder “to be sent” or something, because the MS outgoing server was not working. I looked like a fucking imbecile when I figured it out and tried to explain what happened.

blackbirdbiryani,

Another fucking stupid outlook thing is that you can only schedule send emails from the Web client, not the desktop app. If you try to do it on the desktop app it sits locally in your outbox and only sends if the PC holding the email is on. And if it’s off when the scheduled time passes, the email just sits in the outbox. So incredibly stupid.

LinkOpensChest_wav,

My current employer doesn’t use Outlook, but I’ve worked for several in the past that do, and I’m pretty sure I’ve seen all of those messages at some point.

What do they use? Is there a viable alternative?

LinkOpensChest_wav,

My current employer is fully into Google’s ecosystem, so we don’t use a dedicated email client.

cduke23,

I just use Outlook as a PWA as part of the M365 system. Works great imo. The desktop client can be a bit of a resource hog. I installed the PWA as an app and haven’t looked back.

35 today.

Why am I 35 already?

Please stop.

Help.

I remember 35. That’s exactly when I started feeling like I was actually in my 30s. Let me tell you, it just keeps going like that, and you’ll only realise how young you are years and years from now. Rinse and repeat.

BudgetBandit,

Close to 30, stopped aging at 22

TheSanSabaSongbird,

I’m in my 50s, but in my head I’m still 36.

This is by far the largest settler colony and one of the largest real, actual genocides conducted in human history. Not fake like the ones West invents about others.

snowraven,

To be fair more people died from the diseases brought by the settlers.

Omega_Haxors,

You mean the diseases they intentionally spread as part of their settler colonialist genocide?

snowraven,

There’s very less evidence to support that. I can only recall one incident where a blanket infected with small pox was handed out to a tribe and the officer who did that was later severely reprimanded.

But anyhow, I am not trying to downplay the ill intent of European settlers, I will just quote this here “history is written by victors”. The blanket incident is all I recall about deliberate disease spreading. who really knows? How many hundreds of such incidents went unreported?

Omega_Haxors, (edited )

I took a course about it back in high school, they literally wrote about how they were going to spread infected blankets to wipe out the indigenous population. But you’re white so that means your genocide denying hipfires are more accurate than actually educated facts on the matter, so excuse me for thinking I knew what I was talking about.

BCsven,

Apparently that is false. While disease did kill some, as well as early settlers, the rest was actual murder.

snowraven,

Unless you could link a credible source it’s hard to accept this as anything more than a mere opinion

BCsven, (edited )

history.com/…/native-americans-genocide-united-st…

You can start the journey of learning the truth here. There are lots of sources of info ( if you ignore Canada/ USAs own accounts in some instances because of whitewashing history) . Also the churches reporting many died of germs from early settlers is a fake after take, because in that era they had no concept of germ theory, that discovery came later.

xor,

Which made up genocides would those be?

TheAnonymouseJoker,
@TheAnonymouseJoker@lemmy.ml avatar

The ones in China, Russia, North Korea and whoever is the enemy of USA. Ironically, USA has been part in most genocides ever committed, some done by themselves and none that they actually discovered via authentic journalistic investigations.

xor,

Okay let’s break this down into the three unrelated parts:

Which genocides? Sounds to me like you know that the genocides you’re referring to actually have huge amounts of evidence, so you’re intentionally avoiding saying which specifically to avoid scrutiny.

Most genocides ever committed? The country has only existed since 1776, and humans have been committing genocide for a hell of a lot longer than that.

none that they actually discovered via authentic journalistic investigations

What the hell is that meant to mean? Who is “they”? None of what? What makes a journalist’s investigation “authentic”?

TheAnonymouseJoker,
@TheAnonymouseJoker@lemmy.ml avatar

I am not interested in western pseudo-intellectual hipsters that like to dance around morals and authenticity.

xor,

Nonono, you’ve passed the point of getting off that ride.

What’s happened here is you came in spouting absolute bullshit with nothing to back it up. Then you got called out for it by this “hipster”, and realising that, you’re trying to back out by pretending you never wanted to have this conversation in the first place.

Now you’re doing the internet equivalent of putting your fingers in your ears and yelling LALALA to convince yourself you’re right, and that you’re not giving your government a free pass to commit genocide, it’s just those damn westerners trying to “make you have morals” and “form sentences that actually mean something”.

This feels less meme like and more advertisy. Plus who the shit hasn’t heard of discord before?

This discord thing looks promising. Maybe it will get popular.

Well, to be fair there are indeed enough houses… We kinda just assumed they would, by the grace of the market, end up distributed among virtually all people and at a fair price. The reason they never did and increasingly don’t is one of the largest unsolved problems in economics /s

PersnickityPenguin,

The houses aren’t in the right place where people need them, however. Where are there millions of unoccupied homes in California, Oregon and Washington?

Oregon alone is short something like 150,000 housing units. I can’t ever recall seeing an empty house that stayed vacant for very long.

joyjoy,

We know what the problem is, and how to solve it. The people in charge just don’t want it solved.

lugal,

This is so weird, isn’t it? I reran the model thousand times, it can’t be wrong! I mean, what’s supposed to be wrong? The assumptions? That’s ridiculous! Let me readjust the factors once more…
