we got a team back to the moon, and still can't get teams or zoom to run correctly, and they're back on holy terra.

not even any warp fuckery, or dark side comms outage, just straightup slopware.

@da_667 i want nasa to make an announcement saying some shit like "fuck these clowns, we're going nextcloud selfhosted" or someshit. or like "fuckit, thunderbird and imap because that shit just works as long as packets flow"

@da_667 ostensibly they are coming for your job but it remains secret? it is mostly sales since in 6 mos there will be something more advanced - quite likely

@rossmadness @da_667 i dont think block io is a good idea over a laser with 2500 ping

slopware. That's a new one. Nobody coined that yet, right? There's slop, there's AI slop, but not slopware. There is a lot of slopware these days. Just the most dog shit software depending on years of hardware refinement to make up for its lack of optimization and refinement. And we're here lapping that shit up like its the finest thing there is, techbros feeding us lies the entire time.

how in the fuck do we manage to get back to the moon and in that effort, enterprise software failed twice. Two different outlook clients, and meeting software.
In one hand we have the apex of humanity: traveling the furthest from our planet we ever have with the most complex hardware and guidance software there is, with the most well-trained space and ground crews. On the other hand, you can't send a fucking e-mail because slopware.

@da_667 microsoft was not only zero help in space missions, they were a detractor, in that even their flagship fucking products didnt work, even with the pressure of the entire planet watching history being made
what a fucking fantastic opportunity for literally eveyrone to dump outlook and exchange

@da_667 Right, but how often do you LEGIT get to use the cosmic rays or solar flares excuses when something fails though?

@da_667 like, if they gave a shit _at all_, someone at ms would have been doing backflips to make sure shit went absolutely 100% perfectly
but they didnt.
and its not because they are "under resourced"

@TomSellers but all of the streaming software and APIs worked perfectly fine.

microsoft just ...
didnt care to deliver when the rest of humanity was making history

@Viss if we count the 70s and the mainframe era is the genesis of modern computing, we've had somewhere in the neighborhood of 60 years to improve. Meanwhile in that era, we got to space on fucking hardware the equivalent of the TI-83 calculator.

@scottwilson @da_667 i hope that some pinhead at nasa gets shot into the sun over it

@Viss don't get me wrong, I'm celebrating a triump of us returning to the moon after 50+ years but god damn am I disappointed in modern software.

@da_667 I am amazed Office is still the standard. It doesn't even fucking work right. You should hear my wife scream at her work issued laptop.

@nuintari I refuse to use their cloud shit, because I absolutely refuse to pay for a subsciption for something that was (and if you try hard enough still is) a one and done purchase.
At one point, I had a license of office 2016, but it was single use, single install. Then I installed linux, and pirated a copy for my Windows 11 VM, because I'll be god damned if I'm paying again for software I already paid for.

@da_667 their backhaul was fine. we were getting telemetry and fucking live highres video for 9 days of people who literally did a loop de loop around the moon.
then when they got out their nikons, and started machinegunning photos, they were able to then send those photos back to nasa via laser.
all that worked!
tcp was good, the link was good, 2500ms pingbut outlook didnt work.
meaning everything from "the moon" to "the groundstation" was 100% fine
