Speedtest.net bought a service that was doing this already sort of. I looked just now and I think it’s their “map” option on their mobile app. You need to switch between carriers to see coverage.

The tech was based off of manual speed tests and a background app that would measure coverage from a phone for a small area, about the size of 3 square acres.

Outlook is pretty good, and exchange does a decent job of making calendars available on mobile, web, or desktop client.

The outlook web app is the expected future.

Does it not work well with other calendar servers?

They said it was their corp. networks and not their software but who knows for sure.

90% sure I saw this guy at a Margaritaville in Palm Springs. Looked exactly like him, had a lanyard and had some sort of assistant walking with him.

I think this makes the intermediate company a military target?

That guy sucks.

What I really hate is when I search for a problem I’ve seen off and on for a few years and the search results is exactly the issue im experiencing.

Great!

Only to find out after chasing that link that it was me who posted that question, 4 years ago, and it’s still unanswered.

Ever since windows 11, edge, and MS’s approach to resetting defaults, I’ve stopped getting support calls from relatives. Yes it’s riddled with annoyances but it’s a net improvement over previous gen software. I see regular people struggle with tech and can tell things have improved dramatically for them.

One one hand, this can be pretty annoying.

On the other, when thinking about the lowest common denominator general user that’s been tricked into running some awful PUP-ware browser, I can understand MS’s point.

It’s probably the browser, not the OS, that’s doing this. The teams are separate although someone in upper management oversees them both.

DNS doesn’t propagate fast enough.

Just like ipv4 though, you wouldn’t use external addresses internally because your external IPs might change, such as when moving between ISPs. You would NAT a hosts external address to its internal address.

What translates the public ip to the internal ip? Aren’t they different?

If you use a single shared public ip then you’re using some amount of address translation.

If you’re using an external ip address that’s different than an internal ip address but both are assigned to a single host the you’re doing 1:1 NAT.

At least that’s how I understand ipv4 and I don’t think ipv6 is much different.

Yes but you’d still be performing NAT. It’s at least 1:1.

You’ll need to deal with firewall rules regardless, and drop IPs into policies. IPv6 doesn’t remove any of those chores but gets rid of having to maintain tables to deal with many-to-one NAT.

They’ve also been pushing PWA hard. A lot of apps run on webview2 even in specialized industries.

I won’t be surprised if we see a larger push to non-x86 and if it’s arm then it’s also possible to go risc-v if app support is there.

Because many 3rd party hardware providers are lazy, while Linux maintainers are not.

Ms provides a way to have drivers deployed over their windows update channels when needed but the hardware provider has to do it.

Linux allows basically anyone to provide a driver.

Hmm I wonder why MS has spent so much time converting office apps to run on webview2…

So you don’t need to change your network if your isp changes.

Love this. I don’t know much about risc-v but I’d love to see it disrupt the market a bit.
