Btw, there is no #Microsoft outage when you don’t use Microsoft 🤷
Corollary, there is no technofascist brotherhood when people stop buying fossil fuels.
That axis alliance between American tech and the oil industry; it needs to go.

@stux Welcome to Club Totally Unaffected By This Nonsense! ^.^
@stux I only use Microsoft for my college classes and for my labs.
@stux there was a microsoft outage?
I must have missed the news. *shrug* oh well, some tuber will probably report on it at some point.
@stux Some people don't have a choice... But it's not always a bad thing... See, today, no annoying work emails.
@stux The only Microsoft product I use is email. Way back in the past I thought that Microsoft was less evil than Google. So, I am curious. What do you use for email? For a while I was thinking of switching to Proton, but that seems unwise now.
@stux This. I didn’t notice a thing.

@stux Folks at our dentist office were very impressed when I told them that we (mostly) don't use Microsoft products.
