You shouldn’t joke with these things.
When my dad was seventy, and under a lot of pressure from work, he had to use Microsoft Teams once and he hasn’t been the same since.
How did they know me and my wife’s safe word?!
I mean its a safeword in two ways.
First that you both communicated it to each other to be the safe word.
But also
If you say that word during action every lust will plummet for every partner. So either way it works ^^
Unpopular opinion: slack is worse than teams.
Doesn’t matter, we need to get rid of all these platforms. Pinging large groups of people shouldn’t be this easy. Maybe get rid of internal email as well.
Want to contact somebody? write a note and have it delivered. I’d bet it’d be more efficient, when you need to limit your messages.
Just imagine how much calmer your day would be, if you wouldn’t have to deal with “who ate my lunch?” or “there’s a car with the headlights on at a carpark on the other side of campus” with the same urgency as actual directed communication.
I have my mic right beside my mechanical keyboard. Nobody hears a thing if I type during a meeting in Zoom and Slack. In Teams, if I type as light and quietly as possible, people complain immediately. That is my experience with Teams.
You do know you can mute your mic, right? Unless you type and talk simultaneously
I do sometimes, but generally I can mute myself and be fine. It’s a mild annoyance. But the main point is that Teams appears to make no attempt at noise cancellation. What if there was loud vehicles or sirens? Barking dog? Kids screaming, people talking in public? I guess everyone just hears everything in Teams. Seems like a really basic feature that’s missing.
I was in an online meeting years ago when a formation of F-16s flew over my house at 500 feet. Ain’t no cancelling that noise. That was a good day.
For serious, does anyone use it out of free will and not because it’s mandated from work?
I think I used it to manage my parents’ computers remotely so I could fix shit for them during their winters in Florida. Maybe I’m thinking of something else, though.
Yeah, that’s one use case. I’ve used TeamViewer for things like that.
Ah, TeamViewer is what I actually used. Got it mixed up with Teams.
What’s interesting is that the first time I’ve heard about it was from someone I would actually help with computer problems, just locally.
“I totally get why I need to have to versions of teams and outlook without any of them working”
That or webx
Fuck Cisco webex and the executives it rode in on!
Woops forgot that “e”
I’m a Skype man.
I also liked Skype, even though I spent five years of my career writing Skype clones that absolutely nobody used.
I like Teams 🤷♂️
Lie him down on his side and keep his head elevated, I’ve already called the ambulance.
On it.
Wow, people are really butt hurt over productivity software. It must be that you neanderthals are hitting the computer with a rock and expecting something great to happen. Do us all a favor and disappear.
