  • Microsoft makes Outlook for Mac free

    ITGUYINSD said:

    The article incorrectly infers Outlook for Mac only works with IMAP accounts, which isn't true since it works with Exchange/365 accounts.
    No, you just read it wrong. "includes support for Outlook.com accounts, Gmail, iCloud, Yahoo, and other email providers that support IMAP" — that's a list of different things.

    Oh, like macOS?  Remember back in good ol' days when macOS was lean and stable, but at the same time, feature-poor and not supporting the newest hardware compared to Windows?  Then, Apple starts adding features and brining macOS into the current century and it's bloated and buggy.  Each new version is worse than the last.
    Rose-tinted glasses. There have always been myriad bugs in all versions of Mac OS/OS X/macOS. I don't have any major issues right now outside of a few built-in apps.
    I didn't read it wrong.  The article states nowhere that Exchange support is included in the free version.  It does list what it does support, and Exchange is not in the list.

    You can assume it's included, but again, the article infers it's not.

    Yet another expensive piece of junk from Tesla, guaranteed to stop working, if you can get it to work at all.
    You really have a hard on for Elon don’t you .
    I don't own a Tesla car, but our neighbor across the street had 2 (not at the same time) and Tesla repair truck was at their house more frequently than I would expect for a new car.  My Hyundai has been flawless, never to a repair shop in 6 years (knock on wood).

  • TikToking Apple employee fired over medical leave, not videos

    JP234 said:
    Unless she was under contract, Apple can terminate her at any time, for any reason, or no reason at all.
    If she was under contract, it's certain that HR ran her termination by Legal, and they cleared it. If she sues, she will fail. Or bankrupt herself trying to combat Apple's $2,000/hr lawyers. Best she can hope for is a lowball settlement.
    Not true.  There are protections in place for employees.  You can't fire a pregnant woman because she's taking time off related to her pregnancy, for example.
    (Well, you could fire her, but you'd lose in court and the pregnant woman would become very rich).

  • Eufy cameras upload content to the cloud without owners knowledge

    zviratko said:
    Apparently, Eufy has been aware of this already, which means they have also missed all deadlines on notifying agencies about GDPR violations etc. This could cost them at least a few billion EUR.

    I wonder how this affects people who only ever used it with Homekit, as it claims to be disabling most of the Eufy functionality.
    Having Eufy cameras enrolled in Homekit doesn't keep one from using the Eufy software to view the cameras.  I've got 5 cameras and can view them in Homekit or Eufy app.  Some advanced features are disabled in Eufy app since they are in Homekit, but basic functionality works just fine.

  • Apple's ad agency recommends a stop to Twitter campaigns

    Twitter has become a sh!tshow. A dumpster fire of epic proportions. But the parody blue check account posts were epic!! Hilarious!!
    I saw on the news today that bankruptcy for Twitter isn't off the table.  Is this how he operates Tesla and his rocket ship company?  Jeezus!
