What a lucky crab

A screenshot of a Smithsonian post. There is a picture of a fossil crab partially extracted from the surrounding rock. 2 little barnacles on its shell are also fossilized. The text says: This crab has never had to log into outlook at 8 am on a Monday morning. Crabs and other fossils are often found at the center of hardened spheres of rock known as concretions.

Cool crab but how do they know what time it logged in to Outlook?

Geologic record? Pardon, if you need me, I'm gonna settle down into this lovely muck for a while.

The Lync Skype Teams availability tracker that isn't at all a sidelong un-administered timekeeping system.

TIL that Linux users are a bunch of lucky crabs.

I still have to use the pile of poop that is the web Outlook client for work.

Yes... absolutely.... I'm very lucky that I don't need to deal with Outlook...

muttered curses about a slew of boot problems and wondering if just reinstalling it would be easier
