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 👍🏻

    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.
