Accidentally misplaced.

See it's almost whimsical. Not scary at all.

Eyes front and center folks - wouldn't want to make them think you're thinking. Only terrorists would be thinking.

100%

Germany is providing an open source solution to gsuite (which I haven't looked at yet) but am told it's pretty good. More open and more choice is great.

were moderately smart

This is mostly the problem in a lot of cases. A lot of companies don't pay you to be smart... they pay you to be "efficient" which normally means cheap.

Good and skilled people may be in a lot of these companies... but their hands may be tied in terms of choices.

Notice or not any infrastructure change is brutal - even if you go like for like.

I'm not saying I'm against the idea: I loathe all the centralization and robber barons running around in this era. But switches like these rarely go as planned. If haste is required even less so.

But you love teams right?! (get the gas can - I'll get the matches)

That is pretty much how the VMware situation shook out.

It's not about the providers, it's about the move. Companies will need to migrate their infrastructure to another platform which (let's be honest) likely will not have the bandwidth / rack space / hardware to support the influx of users. Companies will self host? Okay sure: time to spin up internal clusters, train employees, provision additional bandwidth / connections. And naturally - this will all go off without a hitch. Like flipping a switch.

And we need to remember that many of these services rely on each other so one goes down: they take each other out.

Where do I sign up for newgrounds 2.0?

Would probably end the Internet faster than China can cut intercontinental cables. I'm here for it but the fallout would be positively insane.

That's kind of my point - just based on the reception it's clear that a number of people were perceiving that as one. Normally that's the "pump the brakes" or the "hol up 🖐️🖐️" moment where you clarify.

I'll be honest - you weren't really presenting your case in that way. Understand my confusion: you seemed pretty adamant about your concern with no backing data on it. Most people pick their hills with something to back them.

Every 10,000 miles. Or after you hit 40. Before putting it on?

Shit. I know this one... uh...
