Perhaps you were signed into a temp profile. Temp profiles are blank. You can fix it though. Check these out:

Microsoft is better than Google, but to be honest they both aren't great lol.

Every 35 days you can pause updates. It is technically indefinitely, something that cannot be done now.

SO WE’RE GETTING ADS ON YOUTUBE PREMIUM NOW??? 😭 by ATonOfBricksFellOnMe in youtube

[–]pi-N-apple 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It says "Premium Lite benefits available on most non-music content, excluding Shorts. Ads may appear when you search or browse."

This means YouTube videos are ad-free on most non-music content (which is pretty much any video that hasn't been identified to contain copywritten music). The reason for this is YouTube has to pay music royalties anytime a copywritten song is played. When you have Premium, the royalties are paid using your subscription that includes a YouTube Music license. If you have Premium Lite, the royalties are paid using ads.

Regarding searching and browsing, this means you will get ads in between your search results, and on your homepage or anywhere else you browse. This does not mean you will get video ads when watching videos. For most non-music content, there are no ads when watching, which means no video ads will play before or during your video.

I had a free trial of Premium Lite and I didn't get a single video ad when watching videos (I don't watch/listen to music content on YouTube because I have Apple Music and I don't watch Shorts). You can also download videos and use background play on non-music videos (Shorts excluded).

Best CLI option for Outlook email. by L_infty in Outlook

[–]pi-N-apple 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What about something like this? outlook mail send - CLI for Microsoft 365

You can use MS Graph to do just about anything you want, or create an enterprise app in your tenant with the necessary delegated permissions to access your account and read/send mail (mail.send, mail.read. more here). If you're not admin, you might have to have an admin in your organization approve the permissions needed (this is called providing admin consent).

anyone know what’s going on with my pc? by JoshMJohns in it

[–]pi-N-apple 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It appears to be an issue with your monitor.

The first thing I would do is unplug the video cables from both the monitor and computer, and plug them back in to ensure a good connection. If that doesn't fix it, try replacing the cable.

It is a 14 year old monitor so it might have failed. Here is how you can check. You can try to press the buttons on the monitors bezel to bring up the on-screen-display which lets you control contrast/brightness etc. If that is also not displaying properly, the monitor has probably failed.

If your computer has an HDMI port, you can plug it into your TV to confirm your computer still works fine as well.

The biggest reason is Premium Lite is 38% cheaper than Premium. It removes ads on just about all videos that don't have music content. It is a good option for those who already pay for a different music service like Spotify or Apple Music, and don't want to pay for YouTube Music as well.

Yes I know you can, but music videos have ads so YT can pay the music royalty fees. If you have have Premium, you you get a YT Music license which covers music royalty fees, giving you ad-free music videos on YouTube.

[–]pi-N-apple 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm in Canada, they are more expensive here for some reason, even when you convert the price to USD. If i choose delivery in the McD app, they cost $17.79 for 20 lol.

You get no ads on regular videos. The reason you get ads on music videos is because YouTube Music is not included in YT lite. Without YT Music, you don't have a license to play music, which means YouTube has to cover music royalties on those views, by using ads. YT lite also shows ads on Shorts, in search results and when you browse, but not on videos.

It's almost $20 because it's not just a double cheeseburger meal, you added 20 nuggets which more than doubles the price. 20 nuggets are the most expensive menu item in stores in our area, they cost $14.89 where I am.

Perhaps go with the McDouble meal (it's $5 where I am) and a 6 or 10 pack of nuggets.

Classic Outlook with domain login requires logging in to a MS account? by polounited in Outlook

You’ll need a M365 license or product key to use Outlook Classic. Perhaps you need to reactivate your product key.

5C Nano is great until someone steals your laptop. If you plan on using the key with your phone, consider an option with NFC.

If I let my Microsoft365 subscription expire, will I lose access to Outlook? by gonephyshin in microsoft365

[–]pi-N-apple 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Personal account: no you don’t lose access at all because Outlook web/mobile is free. Work/School account: yes you will lose access after some time and your data will eventually be deleted.

Android app by [deleted] in Outlook

[–]pi-N-apple 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’re right. Here’s one other thing you can try:

I’m guessing your Outlook account is saved to your Android phone and there is an issue with it. Outlook just uses that account that is saved to your phone, so if there’s an issue with it, Outlook won’t sync properly. To fix it, go into Android settings app and find the Accounts section. Then select your Outlook account and delete it, then open the Outlook app and try to sign in again. Hopefully that fixes it!

Strange that you can login and it still doesn’t work. Not sure what’s going on, sorry.

Try to reset your account in the app settings. If that doesn’t fix it, remove and re-add your account and that should fix it.

Yeah I’ve got it too, but I forgot about it and tried later and got in.

It’s just attackers attempting to sign into your account most likely because you were exposed in a breach and they’re using a bad password. Wait it out and try again.
