    Actual signs of a stroke for those who want to or should know: the acronym is FAST- face, arm, speech, time to call 911.

      Or FAST VAN if you want to be a first aid nerd.
      V - visual disturbance
      A - aphasia
      N - neglect (of use of body parts they would otherwise probably be using)

    I had hope for Microsoft when they came out with WSL and VS Code.

    I was a fool, of course.

      It’s so calming when it just decides to not get any new message for a day and starts removing meetings from your schedule…

      You and me are out there enjoying it (unless you are being sarcastic, then it’s just me out there in ignorant bliss).

      I still don’t get why people are so opposed (it’s cheaper than the collection of apps required to do the same thing). The best reason I heard was it doesn’t work well on Linux, which I’m like duh - they don’t care about that demographic, like, at all. My best thinking is that maybe folks aren’t using all the features. I mean, one of them is a voiced Copilot summary of a meeting done by a man and woman, like they are talking about the meeting at the water-cooler. Truly terrible and amazing all at once.

        I use MS teams on Linux all day long for work through web browser (I think it’s a PWA app?) and have no issues at all. I’m not saying I love MS teams but I am not running into any bugs with it. My only complaint is they used to have a ‘native’ Linux app that ran using something called electron that would allow for notifications in my desktop environment, whereas now in the browser I don’t get those, but that didn’t really end up being a problem.

          Wait, you are running it in a browser? That would give a terrible experience and limited features (you probably miss out on that sweet voiced meeting recap). I can understand why you/anyone wouldn’t like that.

            Check it out, teams.microsoft.com, I don’t feel like I’m missing out on anything for my day to day work duties? I can lead meetings, screen share, use Copilot, calendar…all the “Teams” stuff like the tabs for onenote or planner or other apps (they’re all web based too). I guess I don’t feel like I’m missing out on any capability?

            TBH I’d rather read a transcription than listen to two voices paraphrasing a meeting anyway.

      There is so much to like!

      I think my favourite is when you go through the files in a team then click “Copy link”. It thinks, thinks, thinks, then when it’s done it has a big green tick but doesn’t actually copy the link until you click a second copy link button.

      But I do quite like how when you find the file you want and switch to a chat then it loses your place. And as far as I can tell, there’s no way to bookmark a folder, which is great.

      Long story short I love how it tries to do everything instead of being good at one thing!
