i have this vague memory, like a faded dream, of a product called “Skype” being well regarded and something people used. Microsoft burned that to ash pretty quickly after buying it.

When it was new it was somewhat novel because it could reliably punch through most NAT and firewalls to make p2p calls, while other voip software needed a server (Teamspeak is a few years older afaik). If it couldn't make a direct call, it would proxy via skype's own servers. Other IM services didn't have calling.

Chris Knight posted:god drat sharepoint gently caress it up it's goddamn loving rear end also to do anything productive you need to go to multiple documentation sites because no one site has all the info. it's also extremely unclear which versions support which features. thankfully I was able to target the cloud office365 online version which supports everything except the features they've removed. I fear the day I am asked to support a version from 2011 or earlier -- pretty sure I am going to hire a contractor do it. Khorne fucked around with this message at 17:42 on Sep 29, 2021 |

previous and current fave thing is how you can't export the Version column using the export to Excel feature. sure, it'll ALWAYS include poo poo like user ratings and whoever rated your items, even if you don't have those in the current view, for uh reasons I guess, but not Version! I've tried every single stupid "hack" I tried googling, and the worst ones are of stack overflow that say "hey this post over at the ms community really works!" except ms changed their whole board thing and the link just redirects to the homepage and searching on even the title posted gets you nowhere.

ive been getting into the win32 API i have purposefully only read books made when at most the newest version was windows 2000 it really seems like a nice well designed operating system to program against i do not want to face reality also lol how much of Microsoft's documentation is unchanged from 3.x era

mystes posted:Yeah but how likely are you to recommend SharePoint to someone you hate? It's difficult to even get to sharepoint from the office365 page. And you better hope you don't need to make a list now because you need to use an external teams program that you technically have access to but can't find on any of the office365/microsoft sites if you are the administrator and little IT angels didn't add a shortcut for you.

It’s easy to tell just how bad teams is because slack is used in favor of teams even though it costs many companies hundreds of thousands if not millions extra per year to have a slack subscription.

i mean, teams is huge as well, but tbqh i think what'll kill slack will wind up zoom expanding into that space as the non-microsoft option.

you should check out windows WTL as well. it's a surprisingly nice C++ USER32 wrapper library, although docs for it are more or less nonexistent unfortunately. somehow it is still being actively developed too on sourceforge
