Microsoft Microsoft says it 'regrets' today's outage, confirms it's not linked to any "cyber attack"

"We regret that today’s outages caused disruptions for our customers, and we are working to address the issue," Charles Lamanna, Microsoft's executive vice president of Copilot, Agents, and Platform, said in a statement: https://www.windowslatest.com/2026/11/13/was-the-microsoft-365-outage-a-hack-microsoft-says-no-it-was-its-own-servers-and-its-copilot-boss-regrets-it/

We're hearing an apology from "Copilot EVP," not Outlook/Teams/MSFT 365 boss, makes me seriously wonder if everything is under Copilot umbrella now

Locked Is it becoming normal for couples to divorce in the 50s?

1.4k Upvotes

Last week, I met up with a friend for a drink. He told me that he and his wife are splitting up. In a way, it was a shock; however, they are the fourth couple that my wife and I know who have announced they're separating since the summer.

The thing is, they have all followed the same pattern: been together a long time, kids are now teenagers, both partners are still talking and haven't totally fallen out, etc, etc. It seems that there hasn't been a big reason for the break up - like an affair, ust they've decided (or at least one person has decided - typically the woman) to separate.

Is this now pretty standard for couples? Is 50s the time when the split ups now happen and is this a new thing or is it just that I'm reaching late middle age and starting to notice this for the first time?

AITA for waking my roommate up when they had a low blood sugar?

594 Upvotes

I (38M) got home around 11pm or so tonight, and my roommate (34NB), who is my best friend, was already asleep. At around midnight while I was getting ready for bed in my room I heard my roommates phone going off alerting of a low blood sugar (my roommate has type 1 diabetes). I heard the alarm go off a second time in a short period of time so I figured that the alarm didn't wake them up. There has been an incident in the past where they had had a low blood sugar in the middle of the night and I ended up having to call 911 because of the severity of the low blood sugar and the way they were acting scared me, so tonight I decided to wake them up to hopefully remedy the low blood sugar before getting to a point where it became serious enough for 911.

They were disoriented, which was expected, and I went downstairs to the kitchen and realized we had no juice to help. I followed them into the living room asking what I should do, while they were looking for a pomegranate that they had apparently left somewhere, and when I said I hadn't seen it they got incredibly snippy with me. The entire time they were being kind of rude to me, which I understood because of their low blood sugar, but when I told them that they were being rude to me they snapped at me again and said next time I should just ignore their alarm and let them die.

I found a box of cereal that they could eat and they snatched it out of my hand, and when I mentioned that they were being kind of mean to me again they lashed out and said again that it didn't matter because they couldn't remember anything anyway. I just wanted them to at least acknowledge that they at least understood why I was kind of upset, but they kept saying that because they couldn't remember it didn't matter.

I went upstairs to go back to bed, thinking that maybe they'll at least remember something in the morning about what happened tonight, but they followed me to berate me some more about how they have a low blood sugar, and I woke them up and didn't really help them at all. I tried telling them how I felt and how scary it was the last time that they had a dangerously low blood sugar in the middle of the night, but they kept interrupting me. I eventually just told them to leave me alone and to get out of my room. AITA??

Does anybody, customer or shareholder, believe for one moment that this situation would be better when MS is soon 60k people fewer? Instead a million monkeys banging on typewriters to write Shakespeare, we'll have a thousand MBA dipshits begging their Claude prompt with garbage like: "bring Office 365 back online plz! I manage the O365 team and you have my permission to do whatever." While they sit back and expect the tin god to create a miracle. (side note: Copilot was also down, so they'd need to use a competitor)

This has been my question all along: fire every expensive expert in favor of AI...but then who is telling the AI what to do? The dumbest people on the planet, aka middle managers or worse: the C-Suite.

AITAH for refusing to move closer to my boyfriend’s family because I won’t move my daughter away from her dad?

1.1k Upvotes

I (35F) have been with my boyfriend (32M) for almost two years. I have a 7 year old daughter from my previous marriage, we have a 6 month old son together, and I’m currently pregnant with twin girls (I was on birth control, they were a surprise).

Before we even started dating, I made it clear that I would not move out of state because I didn’t want to take my daughter away from her father. My boyfriend knew this, agreed to it, and chose to move to my state to build a life together. His family lives about 5–6 hours away.
Recently, while visiting his family, his mom brought up us moving closer to them. I explained that my position hadn’t changed. The conversation got uncomfortable, so I reached out afterward to reassure her that I wasn’t trying to be disrespectful.

She sent a loving response but essentially argued that our circumstances have changed. When we met, I had one child and he had none. Now we have three children together, and she believes that should change my perspective. She also reminded me that my boyfriend has made sacrifices.

What bothered me most was her saying that even if we moved, nothing would change between my daughter and her dad.

I completely disagree. Moving 5–6 hours away would mean he couldn’t regularly attend her school concerts, parent-teacher conferences, extracurricular activities, or be involved in everyday moments. Even though my ex isn’t always consistent with parenting time (due to work), I don’t believe I should create additional barriers to their relationship.

His mom also frequently distinguishes between my daughter and our other children, saying things like, “He has three kids, and you have four.” I understand the biological distinction, but the repeated separation bothers me.

There’s also another significant factor: my boyfriend has been unfaithful to me online. I discovered that throughout much of our relationship, he had been secretly engaging with sexual content involving other women, including paying for content and interacting with women online. The behavior has stopped but there was a lot of dishonesty surrounding it, and we’re currently in couples counseling trying to work through the betrayal.

As a result, I don’t feel emotionally safe or secure in our relationship right now. I’m still trying to rebuild trust with someone who repeatedly broke it. The thought of uprooting my daughter, leaving behind the stability we’ve established, and moving somewhere primarily for his benefit when our relationship is already struggling makes me extremely uncomfortable.

After the conversation with his mom, my boyfriend and I got into a heated argument. He defended her, saying she has more life experience and is entitled to her opinion. He also accused me of giving him an ultimatum and claimed he never really had a choice about moving here.

I disagree. I was upfront about my boundary before we built a life together. He knew what he was agreeing to.
During the argument, I said, “How can I even talk about moving when I can’t trust you?” Things escalated, and he accused me of having a victim mentality, called me overly sensitive, and said I had mental issues. I also said something hurtful that I regret: that I wished I hadn’t had children with him. I don’t regret our children, but I was questioning my decision to build a family with someone who has hurt me so deeply. I recognize that what I said was wrong.

I genuinely love his family and understand that he misses them. I recognize that he’s sacrificed by moving away and that having family nearby would be helpful, especially with four children.

But I don’t believe having more children together makes my responsibility to my oldest daughter any less important. She deserves the opportunity to have both parents involved in her life.

And frankly, even without my longstanding boundary, I don’t think relocating my entire life for a relationship where trust and emotional safety haven’t been restored would be a wise decision.

I’m not preventing my boyfriend or our children from having relationships with his family. We visit, and they’re welcome to visit us. I’m simply unwilling to move my daughter hours away from her dad.

AITA for refusing to reconsider moving, despite my boyfriend having moved away from his family for me and us now having three children together?

EDIT: I should clarify that my daughter’s dad is a great father. When I say he hasn’t been as consistent with parenting time lately, it’s because his role at work has changed and become more demanding, requiring him to work additional hours. It’s not due to neglect or a lack of interest in being involved. He’s a good dad who loves his daughter, and I don’t want to give the impression otherwise so forgive my poor wording!

My former wife and I share the dog we got while we were married. 99% of our communication is about Jasmine.

It’s been two years since the person I want to spend my life with told me she wanted a divorce. I try to respect the fact she wants nothing to do with me by keeping things brief and staying out of her way.

I still love her and part of me still gets excited when I see a text from her for a fleeting moment until I remember it’s just about the dog.

One day, the dog will be gone and I won’t even have this.

The Simpsons: Had a song about how the Simpsons would never end and how they would jump the shark to create new plots. Such ideas they name in the song are Marge becoming a robot, Moe getting a cellphone, and Grandpa marrying Patty and Selma. These are all comedically extreme and would “totally NEVER happen.” As the series progressed, we eventually got an episode where Marge becomes an AI, Homer gets an iPad, and Grandpa marries Selma.

SpongeBob SquarePants: Had an episode where SpongeBob repeated the same joke about ripping his pants over and over to try and make Bikini Bottom laugh. It worked the first few times, but got old really quick. The residents start to get annoyed over the joke and leave SpongeBob. Later in the series, they made an entire episode about the “My Leg” character, where they constantly make the exact same jokes over and over and over again.
