  @garethicke Stop subscribing to Microsoft Word years ago went you had to pay an annual fee for Windows 10 office 365. To type documents on your own laptop. That got stored onto their server. Still have an old Windows 7 on an ancient PC though. **** off Gates.

  @OrevaZSN Why would anyone be trying to edit a PDF in Word? Edit it in Acrobat, where it belongs. And Word isn't a DTP app. Some of us know how to use it very well and don't have these issues. Not saying Office 365 isn't a hell hole, but at least use the right app for the job at hand

  I am really disappointed in @Apple Business. They finally launch a cloud platform for business mail, but you can’t set up a user mailbox if it was previously used in iCloud+ custom email domains?? I’m being told that it’s not just a 30 day wait, I will never be able to set those mailboxes up. And there’s no user aliases, no multi-domain email support. No multi-tenant offerings (not that I expect that yet). I get that it’s still in its infancy, but come on. These are basic features and they worked with the personal side. I found a way to create user groups with emails that seemed like a workaround to still get mail that’s addressed to these inboxes, but then I found out that they can only be emailed to internally from the same domain. Apple policies are blocking external senders. I spoke to four different support reps over 3+ hours yesterday and they don’t even understand this issue or how to fix it. They keep asking about where the domain is registered when it is clearly an issue deep within Apple systems at a very high level that needs to be changed. I didn’t like the Office 365 integration with the Apple ecosystem, which is why I was so excited for this. But not having access to my mailboxes and not even being able to implement a workaround IS A MAJOR ISSUE. What’s going on @tim_cook? How could this have shipped like this?

  Holy **** GoDaddy is among the worst companies on the planet. Been trying desperately to get them to fix the issue with a domain name previously owned by another company who in the past, used Office 365. Now that my client owns the domain, we can't seem to get them to remove the domain. Microsoft support has been non-existent as well. They assigned a dude to the case, but then he dropped the ball and won't reply to me.

  This is insane, frustrating, and, frankly, pathetic on Microsoft's part! I am a law firm, trying to buy a Microsoft Copilot Business license. Just one $30 license for the law firm. Nope. Blocked. It's not available to my account on Office 365 Markeplace, inside my Admin account [I am the global admin] and the block seems to be due to some technical issue between MOSA and MCA accounts. I have business premium subscriptions. They are making it DIFFICULT to BUY their already market-trailing AI. Maybe I should just spend all the law firm's money on ANTHROPIC. Mircosoft, get your **** together! @Office @Copilot

  The new revelation regarding windows GDID probably has pissed off various “3 letter” agencies around the world. It’s been a staple of easily tracking you and I. Too bad. Glad it’s been outed. I’ve switched out the various laptops I use for online activities such as this one for a certain Linux distribution as well as modified their hardware a bit. Yes, you can be tracked by what’s in your computer. Change it around a bit if possible. Don’t use the same box you pay bills and work remotely on to get on social media. -Proton VPN- DON’T EVER use a Microsoft account. Sign into your windows computer with an old school local account. This is a must. You can search for how to do it. Office 365 can be permanently activated on your computer as a local installation. Do it. (Massgrave) Better yet, use Libre Office and enjoy not being tracked by Office 365. I Google scans your Gmail. Be aware of it. There’s better email providers (Proton). Nobody is perfect but some are orders of magnitude less “nosey.” Download DoNotSpy11. You want to turn OFF virtually everything. You’ll be amazed at what you can shut down. Turn OFF your location / eye tracking / motion detection on your laptop if you don’t do anything else. There is at least one windows GDID changer powershell script I tested. It worked. If you sign into a MS account, you’ll get the same GDID right back so don’t use that MS account going forward. Not going into phone safety or Flock cameras or new vehicles in this post. I’ll just say this: Any time your phone/iPad etc is not inside of an rf-proof bag/case, it’s going to talk to something somewhere, even if it is “off.” You can buy those bags on Amazon cheap. Get one. If you have a newer car (on-star) it tells servers where the car is constantly. Review: Learn Linux. It’s open source, not full of spyware. Get a ham radio license. Keep your 10 year old Toyota forever. Pay with cash sometimes just to switch it up a bit and make the cashier learn to count 😎. Be aware of what devices you use that tattle on your activities and govern yourself accordingly. A little misdirection or just being quieter on social media never hurts, either. Okay end of my coffee-laden ramblings. Hopefully this helped some of you. 🇺🇸

  @pitdesi Yeah I was there was there for 2 years at the Mountain View campus one of them being the year he took over as CEO (2014) before moving to Apple in Cupertino. At the time many folks in the company didn’t like how he was deprioritizing a lot of Windows stuff like Windows phone and prioritizing Azure/Cloud and Office 365 running well on mobile (iOS, Android) and web. He was the head of Azure before becoming CEO so not too surprising imo. Also the switch to use Linux for networking layer OS software stack in Azure data centers over Windows Server and wearing the infamous “Microsoft Heart Linux” T-Shirt. All of which were clearly the right moves now but at the time in various lunch room discussions there was a lot of dissent and people thinking he would fail. But now all those dissenters seem to pretend he played no role in Microsoft’s comeback which is amusing. But since I saw it happening first hand and in real time I knew otherwise. I was a skeptic too because I had been raised culturally with the same biases and prejudice that Asians (using Asian in the broad U.S. Census definition) can’t make successful innovative decisions and thus can’t be good CEOs, sadly my own parents use to think that which shows the colonial mindset (even Malaysia was a former British colony) but clearly now we know that’s not 100% true with various success stories. It depends on the individual as it always has. I’m sure there are plenty of bad Indian ethnicity CEOs as there are from any ethnic group in the world, But Nadella is probably one of the overall best CEOs in the world of any race or ethnicity.

  I cannot believe that a Company as big as @MSFT365Status @Microsoft @Office365 has had an Exchange outage since 9:11AM PST (at least) - resulting in a continued, now 5 hour, outage. So many tenants are unable to send or receive emails, and how there isn't world-class redundant infrastructure in-place for their Exchange server is beyond me.

  Silk Typhoon (HAFNIUM), a Chinese 🇨🇳 state APT, has evolved from on-prem Exchange exploitation to cloud-native supply chain attacks, most recently abusing CVE-2025-3928 in Commvault's Azure-hosted M365 backup SaaS to pivot into downstream customer tenants. - Initial access spans three vectors: CVE-2025-3928 (zero-day in Commvault Web Server, T1190), stolen API keys from privileged cloud vendors (T1195), and leaked corporate credentials found on public repos like GitHub (T1078.004). The Commvault campaign gave them client secrets for Metallic M365 backups, opening direct paths into customer M365 environments via hijacked service principals. - Lateral movement pivots from on-prem to cloud by targeting Entra Connect servers (T1210, T1078.002), enabling privilege sync between Active Directory and Entra ID. Credential dumping and key vault theft support pass-the-hash moves (T1550.002) into Azure. - Persistence relies on adding passwords to existing consented service principals or creating new Entra ID applications named to mimic legitimate Office 365 services (T1098.001, T1036). Web shells handle C2 on compromised Azure VMs (T1505.003). - Collection targets email via EWS and MSGraph APIs, plus SharePoint (T1213.002) and OneDrive (T1213.003), all through OAuth apps with admin consent, a low-noise, API-native exfiltration path that bypasses many endpoint controls. #DFIR_Radar

  Mike Nicoletti (@mikenicoletti) reported 45 minutes ago

  The bear case on Office 365 boils down to one thing: does Microsoft participate in the agent-facing side of data work? Right now most people talk to agents through a terminal or some stitched-together texting setup. If Microsoft makes Teams the place you talk to your agents and share work with them, they own the interface. That interface is the moat.

  There's a question I get asked constantly by investors building individual accounts: how much of a single name is too much? Been sitting with this in the context of the Revere Gro and Rair exposure framework circulating around $MSFT positions. The model tries to map concentration risk across growth-rate sensitivity and rate-cycle sensitivity - not a bad starting structure. But I think it locates the problem slightly wrong. For a long-horizon value investor, risk management is not primarily about volatility. It's about permanent capital impairment. Those are genuinely different things, and conflating them leads to genuinely different mistakes. MSFT at current prices trades around 32-33x forward earnings. P/B north of 13. EV/EBITDA in the high 20s depending on the quarter. Not cheap multiples by historical standards - even for a business generating the FCF that Microsoft does. And the FCF is real: Azure margin expansion, Office 365 recurring, Activision slowly integrating. The capital allocation story holds up - disciplined buybacks, a growing dividend, R&D spend that's actually productive rather than defensive. ROIC consistently above cost of capital. The moat is not in question. But here's the thing about exposure management in individual accounts specifically: when you hold a concentrated position in a company priced for near-perfection, your margin of safety becomes structural rather than mathematical. You can't just point at the balance sheet and call it hedged. The Rair framing - rate-adjusted intrinsic return - is useful because it forces the right question: if the 10-year rises another 100bps from here, does this company's intrinsic value hold? For MSFT, probably yes. The business doesn't need cheap debt to function. It generates cash in almost any macro environment. The moat doesn't erode with rates. But position sizing is where individual investors chronically underperform. Institutions manage downside scenarios as a daily operational function. Individual investors size based on conviction - and conviction is not risk management. Conviction is the justification for taking risk. Risk management is the system of rules that governs how much risk you actually accept. Practical framework, after holding through multiple cycles: - If you can articulate the bear case (multiple compression, Azure growth deceleration, AI capex overhang not yet reflected in FCF) and still sleep at night at 10-12% allocation, that's probably the rational ceiling for a concentrated individual book. - If a 20% drawdown in this one name would materially alter your financial situation, you've crossed from investing into speculating on management quality and multiple expansion. The Revere Gro side of the concept is really just another way of saying: don't let a great company become a great risk by virtue of how much of your book it occupies. The business quality and the position size are separate questions that individual investors routinely collapse into one. Balance sheet analysis matters. FCF trajectory matters. They're inputs into a position-sizing decision - not substitutes for one. That distinction is the actual heart of risk management in individual accounts, and most frameworks bury it. Long MSFT. Have been for years. Never let it exceed 12% of the book regardless of how strongly I believe in the thesis. That ceiling is a feature.

  I've been thinking about this a lot. I've been using Windows most of my life, and in general preferred it to other operating systems. Windows 10 was solid, it just worked and got out of the way. Enter Windows 11. I read all the bad online press, and even defended Windows. Until I installed Windows 11 on my new home PC. It's hard to describe how badly MS ****** up Windows as a consumer operating system. Some of the top things that drove (and still does) me insane; 1. The initial install is quick enough. But then, enter the Co-Pilot and Office 365 prompts. I had to decline Co-Pilot probably 7 or 8 times during the install. Absolute madness. I do not want to use it, and have no interest in it. Just stop with this madness. 2. Create a local user? Nope! You must have a Microsoft account linked to OneDrive. I bought a desktop PC to play games, and do things locally. I do not want or need a cloud based account linked to and blocking my PC setup. 3. I want to create a separate local profile for my 6 year old daughter. Nope! Can't do that... your kid needs a Microsoft account. Absolute ******* madness. 4. Finally I get everything setup... cool now let's get Minecraft installed for kids. I buy Minecraft in the store. Go through the hugely convoluted user switching process, login to daughters account. Minecraft's not there. WTF? Game is tied to, and only available to play under my login. 5. Figure out I have to setup family sharing. The UX to get this going is such a ******* hot mess I almost give up. One of the worst user journeys I've ever done in my life. After all the effort, I cannot share Minecraft with my daughter's account. To this day I haven't been able to figure out why, as all the prerequisites are met. So now as a parent, and owner of the paying account, I can't buy games for my kids. Serious WTF moment. 6. Never ending daily barrage of Co-Pilot and OneDrive notifications. 7. The overall UX of Windows 11 has also just been neutered. File Explorer is now as bad as MacOS, and the OS is laggy as hell for simple tasks. And OMG, ads everywhere. Always. For an OS I paid thousands for. I can't imagine ever wanting to say upgrade my parents to Windows 11, it simply just won't work them. The only thing really keeping me on Windows right now, is Flight Sim 2024. But TBH I've been very disappointed in that as well, outside of fancy graphics, it's very meh compared to previous versions. Modern Linux distros are looking very enticing right now. All the games I play via Steam work on Linux, and Nvidia driver support lately is good. Microsoft should take long hard look at this. If customers move off off Windows, they move off off your entire ecosystem. No one is using your cloud products from any other OS, which seems to be the only thing MS cares about lately. Folks like @marchr and @pavandavuluri really need to undo this absolute shitshow, PM drivel driven, that MS released in Windows 11.
