oh I know it, it's just profoundly inconvenient. I wanted to share funnypic.png that came through teams with someone over signal, who the hell wants to engage in multi-step data janitoring instead of ctrl+c ctrl+v though

The Teams service worker folder saturates every computer here because every profile has at least a GB or more. On an SSD, that poo poo adds up fast and Windows happily lets you use up disk space down to the last byte. This is healthcare, so random people log in and out all the time and their profiles are 2GB each even if they just use the browser and the citrix app for a little bit and leave.

yeah thats what happens when every app requires an entire browser install and then they install it into the user profile cause nobody wants to manage permissions or updates properly.

Oh man I ran into this on one of our long-running EC2 instance last year and had to use a script to remove all of them and i think stop it from installing it in general

Best Bi Geek Squid posted:windows explorer decided that a pdf I was trying to open was too big, so it hung and crashed. loving it My favorite was when people would try to print their PDF paystubs to an HP Laserjet M603, so not even something ancient, and then the printer goes into Error 49.0.0.0 and refuses to do anything else forever until the offending print job is deleted from that computer. Now imagine trying to figure out which computer in a recovery room with 30 computers, now imagine doing that with thinclient VMs and everything is direct connect with no print server. So lol, a one page PDF print job makes the printer throw a hissy and refuse to ever work again until the offending job is removed. Why the gently caress these things can't just print an error page or just drop the job is a total mystery. If just doing basic poo poo is a total lockout performing a denial of service must be trivial. Best Bi Geek Squid posted:computers are so fuckin bad

explorer will use whatever your default viewer is as a preview handler. so generally either chredge or acrobat. if the preview handler chokes, it will usually crash explorer

the gently caress is this ai horseshit that ms has shoehorned into office. found out i've had some ms office program that's a part of their ai poo poo running anytime i've had office running no doubt hoovering up all sorts of poo poo. 4200 hours this loving thing had ran before i noticed it. has literally been preventing my computer from going to sleep automatically. the official ms solution is to delete the individual file and then it will stop doing whatever it is it was doing.
