    Hospital I worked for just merged with another one, and they decided to use teams instead of WebEx. So some cum stain making a half a million or more a year, who probably owns Microsoft stock made that decision, and now we have no fallback if one of the systems go down.

    People over 55 shouldn’t be making decisions. Boomers are fucking cancer. We need to round them up and put them in the camps built for ice

      Tbf, teams might be marginally better than WebEx. WebEx sucks so, so much.

      Now if you raise the bar off the floor they both are terrible and are surpassed by many other products.

      Boomers are 75-yo, not 55. If you want to hate on GenX in tech, I’ll remind you that we invented this shit. Along with elder Millennials, we were the only generation in history to straddle the digital divide. No one before or since can have that perspective on tech.

        Classic Gen X: the most covertly narcissistic generation in history. Always the most unique, the most victimised, the most forgotten - the unsung “heroes.”

        The world’s problems are always blamed on the generation before or after them. Never the generation that’s been running every company and country into the ground since taking power, with no adults left in the room to supervise them.

            You don’t need a significant population to have a stranglehold on executive positions, boards, and key positions within the government.

            Of course, when it comes to Gen X, they had to wait for the Baby Boomers to finally retire or die in lieu of having any actual merit to fill those positions.

            (not saying all Gen X are the same - just saying what the generation is like generally speaking)
