I can see Word, PowerPoint and Outlook as stupid.

But Excel is perfect! You can't say You have mastered it.

Even if You have written a book about Excel, it transcends You.

Excel is, almost certainly, the single most important and influential piece of software in almost every business.

Excel can do anything, including so many things it shouldn’t.

i heard you like a little database in your excel

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

we have an excel spreadsheet at my workplace that takes a solid 2 minutes to open and even longer to close and accesses a number of other spreadsheets with read/write access in the background. it's an absolute monster.

(it's essentially a database that keeps track of the calibration dates for our testing equipment)

Is it just me or is office 365 just worse and more impractical than the old office suites?

I think it's mostly because they keep trying to push other services down your throat. For example, opening a link in Outlook opens it in Edge, even when your default browser is something else. I can't use Edge for that link, I'm not signed into stuff there. So now, because of retarded decisions like that, Outlook actually is missing basic features that Hotmail in the 90s had.

You know you could have just used shitty instead of using a slur, which would have the same emphasis without the baggage of the other word.

Idiot. Moron. Imbecile. All words used as retarded before it. 🤷‍♂️
