Unlike Microslop Outlook, there’s a program that doesn’t break when you lose internet connection.
The asshats for some reason felt that they needed to reinvent it as basically a web app and it’s broken in so many ways, and I think it’s lost feature parity with mobile and Mac instead of gaining. Sheer incompetence.
Can’t wait for the day Satya Nadella gets fired, hopefully it will happen when the AI bubble bursts
He’s going to keep all his wealth and maybe stroll into a high paying “consulting” gig. It’s unfair. it’s unjust. People who are bad at their jobs and making the world worse do not deserve immense wealth and comfort.
It’s incredibly frustrating. I’m starting to think the only way out of poverty is immense crime.
If you choose that route, make sure it’s immense enough that you’ll never be prosecuted for it.
Don’t you kinda need internet for an email app?
No, given that one of the points of Outlook (and most email apps) is to store a local archive that can be read even when offline.
I found the most useful Outlook was '97. Just did everything I needed. Wasn’t overly technical. No AI!
No encryption, probably running SMTP, no spoofing prevention, no compatibility with modern protocols, could it even handle files bigger than 2Mb?
But did we need all that back then?
Email is older than the internet.
Anyway, no, you don’t need internet for the modern version we have today either. You only need it for a few moments.
