Don't worry, there's actually 4 teams
- New teams
- Teams classic
- Teams for school
- Teams Home and small business
I was just about to post this, the fact that it means that there is actually a precedent of astronauts using Teams on a mission, so we may be bringing Teams to the Mars for real, makes it a lot more funnier.
I mean, actually the most terrifying thing we could find on Mars would be a congratulations screen saying we’ve finished the demo content.
that was the tutorial? Fuuck
Well, when the full release comes out we’ll have to play it all over again. Save files don’t transfer.
Please buy WinMars license!
I'll just close the popup and keep using it as is.
15.99/month to access Uranus
Ugh, unacceptable! All of that just to access Myanus...
I dunno, that might be some immensely relieving news to hear, that all this is not true reality.
Now I'm picturing trying to conduct a video meeting with a 10-40 minute lag for the people on Mars.
And you will love time zone conversions. A "day" on mars is called sol, it's 24 hours 39 minutes. So if the meeting is at the same mars time every sol, it starts 40 minutes later each day... Weekly meetings drift 4 and a half hours each week
You don't need to go to Mars to deal with timezones .. plenty of people right here who have absolutely no idea that half the planet is dark at any one time and still schedule global events in their colloquial timezone rather than UTC.
And I experience that idiotic practice mostly from Americans and American companies
I love when companies schedule things like trailers, lives, premieres etc etc when most of the world is asleep
If I'll ever schedule some important event for huge number of people, I'll use Martian time.
I would rather permanently cut off all contact between Earth and Mars than have to program day/time conversion between them. Especially with time zones and leap years.
Need satellites around each planet and around the sun for when earth and mars are on opposite sides of the sun and both people are on the night side
A solar conjunction of mars happens every 26 month and takes about two weeks. That's the perfect time to install Windows updates and reboot the system. At least that feels as if it also takes two weeks.
But that’s just how Teams operates today, how will it work on Mars?
The most terrifying thing we could actually find on Mars? Ruins of an ancient proto-human civilisation that had reached a similar level of technological advancement to our own.
I think the worst would be that they were one or two steps ahead, suggesting that the Great Filter is ahead of us.
I think, Climate Change is the great filter.
I was thinking the implication would be that we have already reached the filter without understanding it, and our destruction is imminent.
If we've only reached it yes, but the best news would be that we just passed it

It doesn't work
Omg. On Mars we will never experience Windows.
At the rate Microsoft is going, by the time we set up a community on Mars, everyone will have migrated to Linux 😁
A fossilized human skeleton.
No references to Doom yet?
Thst photo's literally the Doom3 menu screen...
Elon Musk
The film “Life” with Ryan Reynolds is pretty nightmarish.
If ghosts were real, they’d be even more confusing than our own Earth ghosts, lol
horrific on multiple levels.
All I know is that the only thing they fear is you
Either gates to hell, or Epstein files of Gates
