It's not just the domain, which makes me wonder what they were thinking, but also, just look at it.
Why would the real MS use my default serif font.
Nobody and nothing does that, certainly not a megacorp with custom fonts and a brand to protect.
Both the domain name itself (haha, the real one is microsoft.com, can't fool me) and the amateurish look of the login page, which uses my default browser font, instead of an MS font.
Every time I end up on microsoftonline.com I think it's a phishing site.

I should really start shooting in jpg instead of raw. I’m not smart enough for that much power.
And I might post photos more often.

How to decode the Voyager 1 signal - https://destevez.net/2021/09/decoding-voyager-1/
An interesting article focusing on using python and GNU Radio to decode a recording in which Voyager 1 transmissions are included. A great look into modulation techniques and data transmission protocols. It still amazes me that we can receive data from the Voyagers after travelling so far. This is why I ended up studying electronic communications.

The Outlook widget on Android that shows upcoming work calendar entries just said there's nothing at all in the upcoming 14 days and I got happy. Then it started working again. :(
