Down the Rabbit Hole - Posts

When I was forced to change from Classic Outlook to New Outlook, I lost the ability to control the location of the notification window, which in turn made it hard to notice, and caused me to be late for some meetings.

My old work cloud-based VM used VMWare Horizon, which had built-in support for accessing the client machine’s files from the VM.

I recently had to switch provider for cloud-based Windows VMs.
