Actually, after the great Hamstercaust of '23, (75% of them were fried after dhillip {the other one} spilled soda on the server circuit.) they were replaced with a variety of gerbils, guinea pigs, and marmots.

So really it just takes a clumsy nerd and some code red Mountain Dew.

Nope, I see it is to the actual MS servers, not localized. This is very unusual.

Does anybody actually use outlook as a non-work email?

January 6th has a whole other meaning here. Was nearly 24 hours of panic and we lost the Q thread.

Meetings are just melting away from my calendar.

Once they fix it, it's going to break again because of the billion unsent emails and unsent calendar notifications. They'll need to find a way to bring people online incrementally.

Also, I guarantee you an H1B did this.

I dunno. Word is up. I’m able to be more productive without constant email interruption. Definitely gonna pay with the backlog later, but it’s a nice breather now.

Hell yeah. But if you're trying to get shite out today so that you can go fishing tomorrow, you're pissed right now.

Yup. I can read my junk mail, sent mail, out box, and drafts. Can't see shite in the inbox. I am decidedly NOT happy about this. Undoubtedly, Bill Gates is up to something nefarious with this.
