The boat had sailed. I deleted my Twitter account on the day the deal is done. 

Oh, what’s the view like way up there on the moral high ground?

I would have said: “Good thank you, I sleep a lot better now”. I’ve also deleted my account. Moral or not. I don’t like what Elon stands for. People have the right to, for instance, delete their accounts.

I have a mackbook air M1 for working purposes. For office, and online work it’s fantastic but as soon as you use MS teams for a meeting, sharing a screen and video conferencing, the cpu get’s too hot. And because there is no fan inside MacOS makes the cpu’s work slower to avoid heat problems. And then the machine will get very slow. Therefore I would always buy the 13” mackbook pro to avoid this problem.

MS Teams does that on 16 core behemoth desktop systems - it's not the system, it's the appalling software from MS.

Is it really that bad using Teams? I planned to buy the M2 Air as soon as it is released, but the price increase (in Europe anyway) means it's gone from a bargain to a premium product. Suddenly the old Air or a Windows machine seems like a better option for me.

From my experience: it’s terrible. For example,
I’m frequently experiencing problems with icon statuses that supposed to show wether a colleague is online to not. Also, sometimes my own status doesn’t show anymore. Other MS apps like outlook, after a while, just stop collecting mail. After a few updates it starts working again but in the meantime I’m constantly switching between desktop and online versions of the app. You can use MS teams in the browser but the video resolution isn’t that good. I’m thinking it is because of the M1 chip, because on the intel macs I didn’t experiencing these problems at all.
