  • Microsoft Teams is getting a controversial location tracking feature that users may hate

    Jump

  • Agreed. It’s updating your status to in-office and updating your office room location.

    Many hybrid workforces already have software that’s doing this as part of desk hoteling.

    If you’re online and not in the office, it’s not updating your location to your home address.

    This is useful for coworkers to figure out where they are at so they can sit close. It might not sound like a useful feature at first but consider how large a campus like Microsoft is. Knowing what building and floor someone is at makes it much easier to work together.

    Some of the other responses here make it sound like they’ve never signed in with a badge before.

  • This is using your office network/wifi SSID to set your location status in Teams. It’s not sharing your location when you’re nothing the office.

    Also, it’s opt-in.

  • What are your opinions on regular drinking?

  • It’s fine unless it’s a problem for you. It’s also fine if you don’t.

    Everyone self medicates in some way.

  • Opening remotely from the house so I can remotely start the car.

    Shutting the door when my SO forgets to.

    Creating temp PIN codes for guests.

  • Even without the app there are downsides. The wired wall panel connections are odd/cheap and it’s not using a simple method to activate the doors.

  • Researches should publish after 90 days. That would solve the problem.

  • I’ve learned that it’s better to find a company local if they are reliable and back their work, which this company is.

    It can hurt to try because like many of my other tasks, the non-local company have screwed me over. Ive paid for a 2nd roof and the work is bad, but the company is gone. Plumbing/well work has never been right from the companies from the city.

  • My SO regularly leaves the door open. I sometimes get anxious that I left it open.

    I like opening the door remotely and remotely starting my vehicle.

    I want to see if the door opens while we’re away from the home.

    There are a number of reasons to want some of these features.

  • Amazon data centers used 2.5bn gallons of water in 2025

    Jump

  • Most high rises have cooling systems. They run ambient temp water to all of the floors, and tenant hvac units cool their server rooms by pumping heat into that water.

    It then goes through the loop and gets cooled back down to ambient with large radiator systems outside.

    It’s closed loop.

    There’s no reason this can’t be applied to datacenters.

  • The US is probably going to hurt the least. Easily defendable, farming that’s insulated from attacks, distributed power, roads, rail, and waterway distribution systems. Additionally the us has oil and can refine it.

    I’m not saying the us will be fine.

  • Chinas problem will be all of the old people that are alive but not contributing and it will be sudden. Their economy is all about making things and pushing it onto other countries. When they can’t do that, either because they don’t have the people, the supply chains are broken, or other counties can’t afford to buy their widgets, their situation looks bleak and immediate.

    Japan is better off than you would think but only because they’ve accepted their fate and have pushed much of their manufacturing into other countries where they merely need to supervise and send some of the profits back home.

    They also have a capable navy and are naturally resistant to invasion due to their geographic situation.

    South Korea is so fucked, but the blast radius won’t be as bad as China. China won’t go down without taking Taiwan (with force or just from economics) and that’s the end of advanced CPUs.
