Did they try to ask copilot for help?

Imagine going to space and still having to deal with fucking email ๐Ÿ˜‚. Fuck that why even bother

[โ€“] Krem@hexbear.net 13 points 2 days ago (1 children)

yeah. i get that they have to do some kind of work, like neat experiments, and fiddle with control panels and such. but emails? microsoft office? come on.

80% of waking time in space should be spent contemplating the universe and our small part in it. then 15% for chilling out and doing cool zero gravity stuff, and 5% fiddling with control panels and communicating with earth maybe

Surprisingly low % of time you've set aside for romancing alien baddies

Just log into one of the 30 dashboards Microsoft uses to manage its 200 services, and go into 15 layers of policy settings to uncheck a setting you didn't set but Microsoft thought it should be set for your security, then realize your account doesn't have that privilege so open up power shell and set yourself as a site admin despite already being a global admin, then OneDrive sync kicks in and Trump's desktop is somehow now the ISS desktop? IDK.

It's so much easier than typing sudo snap install outlook-for-linux --edge

I cannot describe the terror I would feel when I enter a space rocket and see Windows on any of the screens in there. I would be out of there instantly

[โ€“] john_brown@hexbear.net 19 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Now it's time to send an email if you dare

This is Major Tom to Ground Control

I'm clicking on the send

And it errors in a most peculiar way

And this error looks very different today

The screen of death is blue

and there's nothing I can dooo

I'm seeing double here, four Outlooks

[โ€“] JustSo@hexbear.net 9 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Houston I'm seeing an Outlook, no TWO Outlooks outside the craft - we're not alone up here, control.

[โ€“] KuroXppi@hexbear.net 4 points 2 days ago

Yes we are looking out. But they are looking in

[โ€“] deforestgump@hexbear.net 16 points 2 days ago

Teams was probably clogging up all resources.

second-plane Mr. President, a second outlook has hit the spacecraft.

friend-visitor-3 friend-visitor-2 I heard they have a copilot on Artemis helping them fly

"Sir, Outlook is outside the craft begging someone to let it back in."

Outlook: But I'm right here

i know this trick, and tbh i think it's fine if they just wanna watch youtube and chill for the day

This will be a very normal thread about an Orion crewmember's laptop having Windows installed on it, I'm sure.

forum signature

is this a lemmy feature or just a trend I'm seeing people hop onto either way it's neat

[โ€“] Le_Wokisme@hexbear.net 10 points 2 days ago (1 children)

if anyone reading this finds them annoying instead, you can use ublock origin's element picker to create custom rules blocking peoples' sig banners

[โ€“] abc@hexbear.net 2 points 2 days ago

wtf who would do such a thing


[โ€“] cosmosaucer@hexbear.net 7 points 2 days ago (4 children)

i think its a trend but im curious how they do it

do they copy paste the signature everytime they comment or is it somehow automated

[โ€“] Liketearsinrain@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 day ago

idk either way I love it

[โ€“] edie@lemmy.encryptionin.space 11 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

I made a script to help automate, but I only run that on the computer. On phone, sometimes on the computer, and before the script, I copy paste

I just use a Clipboard manager and search for '***' (for the line break portion) and just paste the one I copied when I first uploaded the image the first time I stole @KnilAdlez@hexbear.net's bit


[โ€“] KnilAdlez@hexbear.net 6 points 2 days ago

I have a keyboard that lets me use macros that I don't use and I copy/paste every time instead.


[โ€“] abc@hexbear.net 6 points 2 days ago

Just a bit I copied from @KnilAdlez@hexbear.net


[โ€“] JustSo@hexbear.net 7 points 2 days ago (1 children)

FR THO. What the fuck are they thinking?

It is probably a political requirement, like much of the rest of the SLS.

If they were using Linux, it would randomly not boot one day and take 3 days and 43 steps to troubleshoot

[โ€“] Carl@hexbear.net 20 points 2 days ago (1 children)

The thing is this is the space program, so if they were on Linux they'd be on some Debian build from the 00s and you'd have to go through ten mission specialists every time you wanted to run sudo

Some old-ass BSD derivative (built for Z80 architecture) where you have to recompile the kernel every time the core rope memory gets kinked

[โ€“] decaptcha@hexbear.net 17 points 2 days ago (2 children)

a real country's space program would include a Kernel Officer on every mission, with standard issue programming socks

how dare you not fellate Linux

[โ€“] OrionsMask@hexbear.net 10 points 2 days ago

I would happily fellate Linux all day if it fucking worked.

[โ€“] Calfpupa@lemmy.ml 11 points 2 days ago

Only if they update past an LTS

Still better than Windows 11.

[โ€“] LeninWalksTheEarth@hexbear.net 2 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Outlook classic i can understand breaking, but New Outlook i have doubts. In any case just log into the OWA.

[โ€“] umbrella@lemmy.ml 2 points 2 days ago (1 children)

are you talking about new outlook or the new new outlook? or is that outlook 365?

[โ€“] LeninWalksTheEarth@hexbear.net 1 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

its technically all Office 365, but there is Outlook Classic(the one that has been around forever and downloads your email into a OST file), New Outlook(which is basically just like an app on your phone and is a GUI representation of OWA) and then OWA(signing in through a browser.) Outlook Classic has way more issues than New, and i think it's primarily because it downloads all your emails to the computer for offline use, the someone complains about it being slow and i just recreate the Outlook profile. Outlook Classic is way better when it's not using on-prem Exchange, which is usually the case anymore. New Outlook might not need a license though, im not positive on that.
