a $10 giftcard for amazon, uber eats, grubhub or doordash is less than that i think. they're not all the same amount of points but i definitely have less than that they also have $20+ but idk how many points they go for offhand

a pretty cool edge feature is where you switch to another microsoft account profile in the browser, then go to like outlook.com, and it pops up a modal dialog that asks if maybe you want to switch back to your initial profile to log in. very mindful of my needs.

I like the Onedrive integration on my work machine. it seems that the documents folder is mapped to the OneDrive folder, even though the actual Documents folder still exists. And I can't attach a powerpoint file from that folder to an email, it won't let me drag and drop it from that folder, and attaching it from the menu also doesn't work because it complains that the file is open. Just next level genius poo poo.

their current trend is about making sure that you know that the poo poo you use is microsoft so they'll prolly turn "Azure" into "Microsoft Azure" or maybe "Microsoft presents Azure"
