If you're using a shared mailbox in Outlook, and you delete a message, it moves it to the Deleted Items folder in your personal mail account instead of the one on the shared account.

Okay I think we can probably chalk this one up as a straight-up bug.

Because if you create a rule to automatically move certain messages to a folder, and you specifically select the Deleted Items folder under the shared mailbox, it will move them to the Deleted Items folder in your mailbox.

I hate basically everything about Teams but I particularly hate that when I copy text to the clipboard it adds attribution. If I wanted to copy the sender's name I would have fucking highlighted it.

...dude's sending me the commands as a series of fucking screenshots now, so I guess that at least means I don't have to worry about copy-pasting them. :facepalm:

If your website lets users find a location for pickup, please provide a map on your page. It is highly annoying to pull up a separate tab to check the location so I can verify either that the location listed isn't on the opposite end of a major road, or that it isn't physically close to me but difficult to get to because ridiculous highway crossings

In TurboTax, when you try to submit a donation credit for Arizona, instead of submitting it displays bold red text at the bottom of the form telling you to check that you entered the correct code for the organization you donated to.

It is not a validation error. It is not an error message at all. No validation occurs; this message appears no matter what number you put in the box. Clicking submit again with the same information will submit and move on to the next page.

It's just a reminder to check your work. That they made look and behave exactly like a fucking validation error.
