The “We’re all in on AI” to “Everything’s broken” pipeline
Won’t somebody think of the tokens.
I’m token right now, token on a joint.
Fuck M$
im going to be a petty ass and say that in this meme format the last two slides should be the same
it shouldve just been “nothing works except teams” twice
My only quibble with this meme is the proposal that Teams works.
It works just enough to torture you. And that’s working as intended!
Gotta break it to you that it’s just like that
Is it not a torture device?
I was a programmer for 25 years starting in the mid-90s. I’ve had numerous coworkers end up working at Microsoft. I’ll admit I was jealous of their insane salaries, but I have to say they were all some combination of terrible programming ability and utter apathy towards their job. The only thing that surprises me is that it took fucking AI for things to get this bad.
I will say that I did have some professional interactions with older MS programmers, the generation that was working for them in the '80s and '90s. These people were genuinely competent, but by the time I interacted with them they were all multi-millionaires and had fallen solidly into the “utter apathy” category.
Does teams really work though, does it?
I’m using it daily for work. It seems to work fine. They changed things a long while back which made things harder to find in the app chats etc. But it does what it is supposed to do.
I preferred it when the Linux version was being maintained, since I didn’t have to be on a Windows machine for work.
I use it for daily work too but it constantly crashes on me in the middle of the day. This also happens for colleagues of mine. Last week one colleague abruptly left a meeting in the middle of talking twice in one meeting because his teams crashed
My husband works from home and I swear I hear bitching about teams coming from his office every other day.
To be honest Microsoft’s software never was of high quality. Not sure if LLM has worsened anything.
There has been a pretty consistent decline over the last year. Windows now updates multiple times a week, my work PC now randomly freezes for 10 to 30s multiple times a day, hardware that worked fine now has odd quirks like my headset now needing to have it’s microphone switched to another source and back again every time I unmute in teams, there was a teams bug for a while where it would immediately kick me out of a meeting the first time I joined it, and another where my headset just wouldn’t work when joining a meeting and would need to be shutdown and restarted to be used, my home dock that worked fine now won’t connect properly when the machine resumes from sleep, needs to be physically disconnected and reconnected, I’m sure there are others. These are all issues that started since Microsoft demanded all employees start vibe coding in 2025 and were not problems previously. Hardware has not changed in that time.
Teams on android regularly fucks up all Bluetooth audio.
Like all Bluetooth microphones will stop working until I reboot.
I’ve tried a bunch of things so far and only a reboot can fix it.I’m glad I don’t need to deal with teams on mobile.
