Wow!
Yet another killer feature that everyone has been demanding!
It's so inspiring, the way they respond to customer requests and bug tickets.

Like car companies:
Customers: Hey your car keeps breaking down
Car company: We added more cup holders!

Everyone in marketing.
This is the kind of feature that adds to marketing ticklists.

Better than that lovely (and where does everyone get the elephant emoji I see in a lot of posts?) feature that would clean "unused" shortcuts off your desktop.
Look, Windows, I may not use it often, but, I bloody well put it there!

A new study is the latest to show how indistinguishable false memories are from real ones. I think.

Microsoft is revealing more about how people are using its Teams app, and it predicts the novel coronavirus pandemic will be a turning point that will change how we work and learn forever. How you gonna keep them coming to the cube, now that they've worked in sweatpants?

If it gets a lot more people working at home instead of spending a stupid number of hours every week primping for work and commuting, it'll be a huge silver lining.

Just wait for google's new remote-working app!
It'll be really, really convenient, specially designed to be easy to set up and use, even for people who don't know what a computer is.
With all that personal data to be reaped, google will pull out all the social-engineering and marketing stops to ensure that everyone want to feed it to their reapers, rather than anyone else's.

Microsoft promises better communications as Azure cracks under increased demand during the coronavirus pandemic. Move everything to The Cloud! It scales!
That's a bit of an oopsie.
I guess they need to have Azure Incident Manager Service now?

If a bit of increased demand is too much for them, potential new customers would do best to sign up with someone else.

Sorry for that. I know I don't miss it.
It must be double-irritating these days?

When pagers were clip-on devices, a colleague whose pager duty finally ended tossed it onto a busy street after bets were taken on how long it would last. They kept calling it until it failed to buzz. It survived longer than most of them had anticipated.
