Remember that scene in Transformers when the fire team is trying to call in air support and they get stuck with a jeet call centre doing every single meme about asking for premium services, not actually doing what the caller wants, and being little other than an active problem to everyone?
That's what this is going to end up like, but with challenging result.
You think that's bad. I have an old email address that I can't retrieve because the server that holds passwords doesn't communicate well between the MSN.com, Hotmail.com, and Outlook password servers. Unless you had a phone number associated with your account BEFORE the service migrated, you're fucked. It's been like that for years and they haven't fixed it.
... and THAT is the email they chose in a "performance critical" environment?
This is funny because there is an absolute warzone of forum posts of people having crazy problems thanks to Windows bullshit and the top answer is always some Microslop rep with bad grammar telling them to just nuke and reinstall.
I remember being told that by HP "support" around 2005. I also remember calling Microsoft directly and being told they'd only help me if I paid them $300, which would get me five support calls for the year. That was the same cost of the Xbox that I just bought. None of those clown could even speak English, so I wasn't going to even give them $30 to tell me to power cycle the damn PC. I found the solution myself, which consisted of quickly typing up a very long series of command lines before the BIOS would automatically reboot. I felt really proud to have fixed it myself.
IIRC the international space station was initially on NT4 when it was first manned, not sure how far up the Windows versions it has updated since then.
The entire US government runs on Windows, mostly. Are you surprised that they are using Outlook?
The shuttles used proprietary, purpose-built systems. The ISS may have had Windows on its workstations but I'd bet the actual operations were running on proprietary systems as well.
"Hey, guise, did anyone think to check the GPO settings on the avionics in the Orion before we launched?" "SHUT UP, HUWYTE DEBBIL! DEM MAJIC BAWXES BE WERKIN' OKAY!"
I think people genuinely forget how many non-whites and women have flown in space, as the Shuttle era was genuinely filled with non-whites and women as astronauts
shut down the spacecraft for an urgent update? Press to dismiss this message for 5 minutes.

It was on his Microsoft Surface Pro.
Basically they could have sent a monkey up there so they're already on their phones to play gotcha games.
I just recently watched this video about how shit outlook is.

Hello, saar. I am seeing your email and the Dell service tag, but I am needful of the serial numbers of the battery.
Saar, I am seeing the serial numbers, now I must verify it is you by calling the number you have given me at a time you say to call.
this is a real conversation I have had this week
Klkerosoft jEWing its consoomers. Surprise Surprise.

Yea, I was talking about the laptops they have up there.

Houston, can we get the wifi password for the moon?
What, is the default latency - rrejection behavior of Outlook not acceptable for Space latency?
Why didn’t the womens engineers foresee this?
a) There ain't no looking out (perception) while going into outer space (suggestion)...
b) We have two outlooks (ones perception + suggestion by another) and neither one is working (all perceivable)...

I thought this was going to be about an actual window rather than software.
