          “Yeah we’re familiar with this issue design, and have opened 17 support requests and upvoted 5 user voice posts to Microsoft about it. But hey we have this workaround that is not maintainable that you can use meanwhile”

      They said that about computers going to make books disappear forty years ago… They never printed so many books that attempted to explain how those damn computers worked!
