On this 82nd anniversary of D-Day, remember: The way we wonder why Germans didn’t stop Hitler is exactly how the rest of the world views Americans and Trump today.
NASA pays $100M for Microsoft 365 licensing across the agency. They standardized every system on Microsoft. They put Microsoft Surfaces on the Orion spacecraft as the crew's personal computing devices.
And the first technical crisis of humanity's return to the Moon was Reid Wiseman radioing Houston to say he has two Microsoft Outlooks and neither one works.
Mission Control's response? "With your go, we can remote in and take a look." The same exact workflow your company's IT helpdesk uses when you submit a ticket on a Monday morning. Except the user is traveling at 4,275 mph, 30,000 miles from Earth, and the Wi-Fi situation is considerably worse.
This spacecraft survived hydrogen leaks, helium leaks, a faulty heat shield, and a broken toilet. Outlook broke anyway. The toilet actually got fixed faster.
The real story here is that Microsoft has achieved something no other software company in history can claim: a support ticket from lunar transit. Their enterprise sales team should frame this. "Battle-tested in space" is a positioning statement most B2B companies would mass murder for, and Microsoft accidentally earned it because Outlook crashes everywhere, including orbit.
Outlook remains the only software in human history that performs identically whether you're in a cubicle in Redmond or aboard a spacecraft bound for the Moon. Universally, reliably broken. And we keep buying it anyway.
Our deepest condolences go to the families and friends of the Jazz crew of Air Canada Express flight AC8646 on March 22.

@sdpnsports@Steve_Dangle There’s a reason that a bunch of 🇺🇸 carriers don’t fly to 🇨🇦. (Southwest, Allegiant, Spirit) A lot of a domestic ticket involves paying airport taxes that the airlines have no control over, other than choosing 2 fly from different airports. Want cheaper, fly 2/from YHM not YYZ.
Eighty-one years ago today, over 7,000 prisoners of the German Nazi camp #Auschwitz, including some 700 children, were liberated by the soldiers of the Soviet Army.
1,689 days of murder, pain, suffering, and humiliation were over.
Today, we all remember. We must keep remembering.
Seth Jarvis, on Team Canada: “Saw a quote a few years ago: ‘Sometimes you’ve got to eat a shit sandwich. You chew on it a little bit, it doesn’t taste very good, but you move on.’ Weirdly enough, that kind of resonated with me.”
He’s been put on standby in case of injury.
