Avec l'#IA, le bilan #carbone de #Microsoft dérape en 2023.

Alors que Microsoft vise une empreinte carbone négative en 2030, pour le moment ce sont 29,1 % d'émissions supplémentaires de CO2 qui ont été émises par la firme en 2023.

Et ce alors que le fournisseur n'est qu'au début de l'histoire d'une GenAI follement énergivore.

It took me way too long to figure out what "pmby" could mean ...
Thanks admin panel - yet more sloppy work in the world of I.T. which is ever so common these days. Every day supporting this stuff is so disappointing.

Wachstum, aber in die falsche Richtung: Microsoft hat nicht weniger, sondern fast 30% mehr CO2-Emissionen. Es ist nicht leicht mit den Klimazielen, wenn Du dem KI-Hype verfallen bist.

Microsoft´s Outlook really needs a bulk edit function for calendar events.

I´m spending a quarter of an hour cancelling individual meetings ahead of my vacation.

Here´s a free user story for the Outlook team:

As an Outlook calendar user
I want to be able to select events across a given timeframe and respond to all of them with a single action
so that I can cancel all appointments during my vacation.

Microsoft's carbon emissions up nearly 30% thanks to AI

https://www.theregister.com/2024/05/16/microsoft_co2_emissions/?td=rt-3a

Microsoft has increased carbon dioxide emissions by nearly 30 percent since 2020, making its goal of becoming carbon-negative by 2030 even more difficult, and it looks like AI is to blame.

Peak enshittification. I've finally been 'updated' from Mail and Calendar to 'new' Outlook, and the go back toggle has been removed. This means no offline access, no shortcut to a calendar, no touch support, no unified inbox. What a complete clusterfuck. Thanks #microsoft. Oh, and thanks to our IT department for locking out any other mail client, including all clients for #linux

Are you fucking kidding me ?

Closing Tango and Arkane, two of your most impressive studios and a few weeks later you open a fucking new studio?

I'm so extremely disappointed by Microsoft lately. That damages my relationship with so much…

Dear tech blogs. Please stop.
These are massive trillion+ dollar megacorporations.
There’s no “war”, no need to choose sides. No flame wars to be had to take more of our money.
These are appliances to get stuff done or enjoy for fun.
Period.

Okay, I hate Windows 11.

How bad of an idea is it to downgrade to Windows 8.1?

Microsoft is how large a company with how much money? Yet downloads of the Microsoft store come down at 56k speeds.

This final school term that requires I use Windows can't be over soon enough.

I truly loathe windows at this point.
