  @Azure The latest official Edge build can't synchronize Profiles with old MS Accounts like @live.com.ar We've had these accounts for around 20 years, and spent a lot of money on MS Store purchases. If #Microsoft does not fix this it's plain theft.

  @guyrleech @Azure **** name, **** experience, **** performance. The sooner it's yeeted into the sun, the better. RD Client still works, is quicker and more reliable. Will continue to be used until it stops working.

  Usually it’s complaints here… today it’s appreciation. Got stuck with my certification issue, but @AzureSupport @Azure @MSCloud followed up every single day for 5 days and fixed it today. Not AI bots. Real support. Respect...!

  @Azure : Remove this insanity of #AuthenticatorApp! I created a new biz account for some emailing, put the debit card, then the login forces to setup that stupid app, but I don't own a smartphone (and won't borrow anyone's). I tried to call support but got disconnected, calling again leads nowhere. At this point I could not even cancel the membership because I cannot login... Madness! Just let the customer decides what they want as 2FA!!! They know better, you control-freaks. So what am I supposed to do at this point? Cannot login, cannot setup auth app, cannot even cancel because cannot login, cannot open a case online because cannot login, and no "Use another way" option to skip this silly Auth-App setup, and no Desktop App either since I run exclusively on Linux.... Why so complicated??? Keep It Simple Stupid. @Microsoft @Outlook

  @Azure just lost its most valuable competitive edge. @OpenAI officially ended its cloud exclusivity with Microsoft. Their models can now be deployed on any cloud provider, and AWS CEO @ajassy already confirmed GPT models are coming to Bedrock "in the coming weeks." This was always going to happen. You can't build a $150B AI company and let one vendor own your distribution channel forever. The 2019 Azure exclusivity deal made sense when OpenAI needed survival compute. In 2026, it was just dead weight. The real lesson is that single-cloud dependencies in AI were always a bad bet. Model access, GPU availability, data sovereignty, you want optionality in all three. Anyone who locked their AI stack to Azure assuming exclusivity would last is doing some uncomfortable math right now. Is your AI stack still locked to one cloud or are you already spreading the risk?

  So Microsoft Azure platform decided to NOT let me in because it’s so sure that I am a bot. It’s just mind-blowing how terrible Microsoft has gotten, this is probably vibe-coded. @Azure , yall are shameful i aint gonna lie, absolutely ridiculous the kind of user experience yall created

  @Azure @Microsoft it must be a joke to pay $100 for support then still having to fill out this ****** form for EVERY SINGLE MODEL with 20 fields of the same IDs, names, data, email, etc and different ratios for TPM depending on the model. it can't be real? how does this pass product? is this a joke?

  @MSCloud assuming you guys handle Windows365 which is cloud based (and whose principles I love), you may consider using what we called a "transaction processor" although frankly it is very hard these days to find a description that fits what I knew of them when I started coding on IBM mainframes in my teens in the 70s. I'm only saying that because the executables' images these days are so huge and full of useless code you'll fast have huge memory management issues, the same we used to have on our mainframes back in time as we squeezed our code in a few kilobytes. The word transaction processor comes from the fact we mostly coded for banks and insurance companies, where one performed transactions before computing turned up, so it doesn't tell you why it's so great, nor how it works: Despite the fact we had thousands of online users for one tiny computer, there was only one executable image contiguously loaded in memory (maybe two). Each user had a session but all that was kept for each session in resident memory was only the data it used, and the adress (the position) of the next instruction to execute in the executable image for that session. And the beauty of that in a multithreading environment, is that it happens automatically without overbearing thread management. To be honest we coders never had to bother about it all, and Cobol as a programing language was well geared to such a use: working storage was defined before the executable code using those data definitions was lined up, unlike Basic for instance where you could define fields as you went, but where professionals defined them up with comments at the top of the program. (I suppose this can be reshuffled at compilation stage.. yes sorry you need to compile). I Guess object orientation that came a little bit later will fit very well in that framework. We used IMS and CICS on IBM, and ACMS on DEC VAX/VMS.

  @AdamGell @Azure I should think so - I don't use CMtrace sorry but anything that makes getting information about a problematic environment is important. I wrote a script for AppSense support to gather as much relevant information as we could in one go to stop toing and froing with customers just to get basic info

  @Azure @MicrosoftHelps damn this is how your "Azure MVP" developers talk to marginalized people, huh? As a disabled person, very glad I don't use Microsoft products and push back against your AI garbage considering you condone ableist slur usage.

  First attempt: 2014. Graduation project. An @Xbox @kinect + @Azure remote rehab system — inspired by patients in Cairo who couldn’t reach physio clinics through the traffic. Microsoft noticed. Then my career took over. But the I never let go the idea.

  Ok, I finally got approved for better rate limits on @Azure which surprised me cos I’ve been waiting for months… It seems they fixed a few issues and the models feel somewhat reliable now? Also got access to both Claude and GPT models now. Yay. Good job Microsoft.

  I have never seen an organization more aggressive about NOT providing support than I am experiencing with @Azure right now. Can't log in, can't get support. So angry.

  A few months ago I attempted to create a RAG index using aisearch in @Azure that pulled it’s knowledge from PDFs in sharepoint libraries. It was a miserable experience tweaking a Logix app flow to ocr, merge, split and chunk the PDFs that i eventually gave up. I attempted it again yesterday because I saw they now allow me to do all of the above by just building out some JSON configs and a skill set. It was easier, ran faster, and didn’t run into the same errors/limitations that I ran into in Logix apps. Kudos to @Microsoft
