@AirCanada this is URGENT. I need to change a booking that CANNOT be changed on your website and it is IMPOSSIBLE to speak to your customer service. Have been trying for TWO DAYS. No luck getting connected to an agent.
@AirCanada I have a flight to change that cannot be changed online, with your system asking me to call you, what I have been trying to do for the past TWO DAYS. Always says it cannot connect me to anyone due to the extremely high volume of calls. How can this be addressed?
Side project. A portal with Entra ID auth, retrieving AVD desktops assigned to a user (1:1) and allowing the user to resize and then power on the VM (as it is stored small and with cheapest storage). Once on, user can use Direct Launch to connect to it and later downsize it.

@JustinTrudeau I am not sure how we can say that in Canada we have Universal Healthcare. What is being given to Canadians is a disservice, a shame really. Of course politicians do not have to wait 8-12 hours at any @OttawaHospital to see a doctor. High taxes for what? Nothing.

@Bell_Support by far the worst technical support I have seen in Canada after 25 years here. Have an issue with my Internet service and your technical support cannot fix and keep telling me that an IP address that changes every hour in the middle of the day, disrupting work is ok.

Someone probably complained that @CrowdStrike was slowing their desktops down and they decided to turn the knob a bit further... They should also rename it to CloudStrike to better align with their proposition.

All I want is to install the regular, normal, well-know, widely used @Outlook so I can import my PST. I do not want to use the Outlook (new) at all. Why did @Microsoft do this? I understand the idea behind updating apps but to the point the new one cannot even open a PST???

Ok people. Got a new ARM laptop and had to install Office 365. Thing is, classic Outlook is simply gone. Downloaded the offline installer for Office 365 (O365HomePremRetail.exe) and the damn thing gives no option at all to even choose which apps you want to install. Any clues?

From @E2EVC Madrid, AWS Session. The new AWS AppStream 2.0 multi session helps with rising VDI costs. Well like RDS but 20 years later? Old is the new new. Cool.
First attempt at deep space photography. No editing, simply stacked pics. Taken last night from my backyard in Ottawa.

I am a couple years ahead of them as it seems...
@crod ... remember when you showed how it was possible to broker AVD workloads that were hosted wherever you wanted and Microsoft got upset? They've now designed a better method, that involves tons of extra licensing fees and restrictions. :)

@Aeroplan is a joke. Their support number asks you all sorts of questions to then tell you it cannot connect you to an agent due to high call volumes... Heard of contracting more people? @AirCanada #Aeroplan #AirCanada
