  • I'm with you. I use it on the iPad. But a part of me is a little cautious. I don't think the devs would do anything nefarious, but Russia is Russia.

  • I can't really completely blame the user here. Microsoft used to market OneDrive as the "last backup you'll ever need". Obviously, this was bad marketing, but a standard user wouldn't know that.

  • What's the opt-out? "Continue without"? Same options as the ms account screen before it.

  • Very cool! I hope it's a successful change.

    Look into onlyoffice. Last I heard, it was Russian based software, so it might be risky. It might not be, though.

  • we're at war with eastasia. We've always been at war with eastasia.

    • Big Brother

    Really has "trust me bro" energy.

  • I guess Obama finally did it. Look at him, never giving up on his goals and finally achieving them. We can learn a thing or two from him.

  • For many reasons. One of which is that I still have to use it, and enter my PII into it. If I can convince them to use less of these, why not do that?

  • That's what I was saying. Everyone gave Mozilla flack for their deal with Google, and here MS is doing it way, way worse. I actually don't mind that Google was the default search engine in ff. It made it usable out of the box for the vast majority of users, and the minority had to click two button to change it. Seemples.

  • Roku has entered the chat

  • I'm sure that's an end goal here, but logging into a Google account through Edge, integrates it into the Windows OS. Sort of like (but not as intensely as) logging into a Microsoft account through Edge. So, while, yes, it's end goal is through rivalry, the method is a partnership.

  • Google's MS deal makes it more integrated into the Windows [OS], than Google was integrated into Mozilla's FF browser. Odd phrasing, I'll give you that lol

    [Edit]

  • Not a choice in most business settings. Windows servers, Microsoft cloud, Windows workstations, and a 365 to complement. You have a better, equally integrated solution? Because, if so, I'd love to hear it.

    Edit. I'm being serious. I'd love to hear it. If it meets the needs of my employer, I'll pitch it. I have some pull. Who knows... it may work.

  • Are you saying that reddit users are the dumbest users out there?

  • A buddy works at Microsoft. This is exactly what they're doing.

  • How many lemmings do you know that actually read the full articles? If an article interests me enough to read it, I usually try to summarize it in the comments, and, yes, point out its flaws.

  • Why are they called unwomen?

    Edit: ffs. I need to get off the phone and drink my coffee. United Nations Women. Third shift is killing me.

  • Indeed! And I used those a few times on friends' computers and told them they I "upgraded" them back to 95. It was so funny
