A license verification certificate expires and when it expires, Microsoft Office for Mac assumes it’s unlicensed even if it has been fully paid for.

So, any idiot who paid for Office 2019 for Mac “perpetual” will lose access to it next month.

The same will happen with Office 2021 and Office 2024 in the future.

Pirates are unaffected, only who paid for the product gets punished

Good job 👍🏻

    You going to make it?

    When you try, they just laugh. They’re not going to verify anything. They do it on purpose. It is their fault.

        Weird thing quotes are. Ignorance, which is what I was describing in this case is intentional.

          No the original commenter said idiot, with some caveats that it’s not because the people are stupid, it’s because they’re being treated like idiots by the company, and you reply, yeah no actually they are just idiots

          You never wrote the word ignorance before now

          Bulshitt ass backpeddling. You have only written ‘its their own fault’ untill now. And then you try to act like ‘oh my god dude I’ve only been referring to people keeping themselves wilfully ignorant…’

          Okay then fucking write out the words you mean instead of all this other horsecock that you apparently can’t stand by.

              Jesus christ just apologize and move on how hard is it to say “yeah sorry that was a bit rude”

              Instead of this passive aggressive stinkpiece

              Have some dignity, please

                Lmfao go fuck yourself. That was a half hearted attempt to leave this alone. You came at me with personal attacks white-knighting for people I described as ignorant without using the word ignorant, tripled down and now you want an apology?

                Please tell me what ignorant means.

                  Fuck you too my man. The ‘ignorant’ thing is entirely a pivot. You’ve only mentioned it now after several comment doubling down on them being idiots and that’s its their own fault.

                  Being willfully ignorant and an idiot are entirely different things and had you said wilfully ignorant there would have been no discussion at all.

                  And I’m not accepting you trying to act like I’m the unreasonable one for pointing out that what you wrote is a fucking asshole thing to say. And if you didn’t mean it like, then that should’ve been clarified long ago, with a ‘yeah that was a rude framing what i actually meant was this:’

                  Instead of acting like you have been saying reasonable stuff all along, when no, you’ve only pivoted to a reasonable proposition now, in the face of criticism

                    It’s not a pivot, it’s expanding.

                    If they didn’t learn anything from them before this, they will be as described.

                    Explain to me what being ignorant is

                    Edit: and a reminder, we’re arguing about words you put in my mouth.

                    If you wanted an actual discussion you would have started one. This is my last reply.
