    New WFH job has me using Teams for the first time ever and it made me reflect back on my long feud with Microsoft. I thought it was hyperbole when I told the class it's been 30 years. I realized, that would make me 12. Did I really give a batcave about operating systems when I was 12?! But then I remembered that would have been 1995, when Windows 95 was the first time I was encountering being in a situation where I have more impressive CPU and RAM specs but can't run the damn software because we're still on 3.11.

      @scribus MS Teams is in the weird space of being good enough and suck. I'm using it for years and the most annoying it can get is when you have to use it across organizations. There is no unified view and you have to switch accounts any time to view a notification. The era of Win 3.11 and 95 was really weird. I had DOS, 3.11, and 95 software at the same time and had to have a parallel installation of 95 and 3.11. Scanner software in 3.11, photo editing in 95, games in DOS.
