I Hate Microsoft!


So, to speed up the laptop I cleaned out stuff, cleared the history, and began to reset everything, as you do.  Hours later I had finished this task.   What I had not realised was that the mobile phone, that thing that nobody uses to contact me, would be affected by this.  All the main programmes, sorry, 'apps,' had to be logged into once again.  Now I have to do the same with the phone.  Eventually, my fat fingers not according to the ladylike size of the buttons on these phones (can I borrow a 14 year old to fix this?) I kept entering the wrong thing, even when the email address was robotically entered for me.  'Wrong password' lied Microsoft.  AI then refuse to allow me to do it properly 'As you have tried to log in too many times.' Once!  Not 'too many!'  I hate Microsoft, even Twitter works better and that is run by a 12 year old mental case.  In the end I had all things working bar the 'Outlook' programme which keeps telling me to download the app which I AM USING!   👿
I am becoming a little frayed here.  
My latest attempt has not been successful.  This means I now have to go downstairs and search for my phone which is lying somewhere over the road among all those dogs leavings.  I'm just going outside, I may be some time...

This would make me laugh but honestly, it makes me feel sad. It would have been rough to have lived in the days of hoop skirts but at least they never had to deal with this technology.

You have my heartfelt sympathy. I tried to return to twitter yesterday....they had no trace of my account
To open a new one they have invented a game on which using two horizontsl arrows you have to move icons vertically....and this is supposed to deter bots. Only a bot could do it, so twitter has been deprived of my ravings. Or perhaps that was the idea.

Kay, Tech is a great advantage, if it works!

Fly, That's anew one. I get miffed at seeking verification via 'crosswalks.'

Fly, I would advise not even bothering to open or reopen a Twitter account. I have given up and what a lot of time I have to do interesting things now!

Jenny, It is worth it, if you like headbangers and constant unexpected changes from Musk.
