It’s almost Friday, so there’s really no point in Outlook coming back now.
And it’s November, so it’s almost Christmas. No point really coming back until January if you think about it.
Let’s circle back then.
To the Microsoft employees desperately trying to bring Outlook back online, please don’t push yourselves too hard. Your health matters more than any deadline. Take a long weekend, relax, and come back Monday feeling refreshed. You’ve worked hard enough this week, and I promise those 400 unread emails aren’t going anywhere.

Concept art may be considered a thankless job, but the end result is something so uniquely beautiful and human. Disappointing to say the least that WDI would want AI anywhere near this art form.
NEW: Disney and Adobe have announced a multi-year strategic AI partnership.
Walt Disney Imagineering is already using custom AI models to transform hand-drawn sketches into fully rendered concept art and generate franchise-accurate creative assets for theme park development.
The partnership now extends to Disney Studios, ESPN and Experiences/Disney Cruise Line.
Adobe will now serve as Disney’s Official AI Innovation Partner, providing the company early access to new AI tools and custom models trained on Disney’s characters, environments and visual styles.
In the news release, Disney says the technology will help creative teams develop ideas faster while keeping the process artist-led and protecting creators’ work.
