inI finally fixed a client's Outlook loop after 6 hours and the culprit was one 3 year old PST file on a network share
I once spent a whole afternoon blaming the user for a "broken" Outlook, then realized the PST was on a mapped drive that kept dropping every 10 minutes. Moving it local fixed it in about two seconds, which made me feel real smart after three hours of uninstalling and reinstalling Office like a genius. Network shares and PST files just do not mix, so moving it local is usually the first thing to try instead of the last.

Two layers of the stuff with a gap beats one thick batt every time for stopping heat.

inHot take: my bank's fraud alert text used to take 20 minutes to hit my phone, now it's about 3 seconds
Why did it take them that long to flip a switch? Two days is insane when the crook is already three states away by then. Mine was the same way until this year, and now I get a text before I even finish pumping gas. It's wild that the tech existed the whole time and they just sat on it. Makes you wonder what else they're dragging their feet on.
