ahh, the "value add" of a 3rd party provider.
quick google pointed me at: Connection issues in sign-in after update to Office 2016 build 16.0.7967 - Office 365 | Microsoft Docs[^]
Under the Symptom 2 header:
Description: AADSTS70002: Error validating credentials. AADSTS135011: Device used during the authentication is disabled.
perhaps can check event logs if that's the issue and pass that on to the 3p-support (basically: doing most of the leg work for their lazy asses then leaving them no option but to fix it)

Country music star Kenny Rogers dies - BBC News[^]
Country (or was it western, I can never tell the difference) music was never my "thing" - but he had a good gravelly voice. RIP: ![Rose | [Rose]](https://codeproject.freetls.fastly.net/script/Forums/Images/rose.gif)

Aren't they all?
I'd be hard pressed to think of half a dozen sequels that were as good as the original, much less better. I think it's the way Holywood works: the sequel must be the same as the original, but with more explosions. For number three they can get creative, because two flopped so badly and they want the franchise to continue ...

well star trek has a few "better" sequels
then again with later release shows changing the past, past-future, future-past ... are they really sequels? requels? unquels? un-de-se-re-quels? ...
(terminator likewise but T1 definitely had the best lines.)

Put Wrath of Khan on your list (but only because the first Star Trek movie was so dire).
The second Paddington movie was a brilliantly crafted piece of work, too.
An even smaller list would be of movies that are better than the books they're based on.
The only one I can think of is Logan's Run. It's not a brilliant movie, by any reasonable standards, but a Hell of a lot better than the godawful book.

"Blade runner" / "Do androids dream of electric sheep?" is one of 'em.
"Ender's Game" definitely in the poo pile.

Isn't that mostly the curse of high expectations?
The movie wasn't bad actually, it was just that the book was so much better.

I think the problem was that the movie was just too short - they had to cut out 2/3rds of the book to fit it in, and what was left didn't make any sense.
If they'd done it as a "The Expanse" style hour-long-per-episode TV series, it could have been brilliant.
But most movies are like that - a short story spread over 2 hours.

The same as with the ring trilogy.
Way to short I say, way to long my wife says.

Aliens. It is also a vastly different movie than Alien - which I view as more of a space based slasher movie.
If you can't laugh at yourself - ask me and I will do it for you.

Indeed.
I allowed my young daughter to watch Aliens, because it's just a monster/action movie, and kids live monster/action stories.
Alien, however, wasn't on the cards until she was a lot older.

My folks were country fans and never missed an opportunity it seems to crank up the volume whenever they heard Kenny Rogers on the radio. As a kid, I hated it.
But as an adult, I've grown to appreciate what he did. The Gambler is such a catchy classic.

Source[^], but the NYT has the same thing.
I really don't like the "one in __", in this kind of context; it's just not precise enough language, for me.
A back-of-the-mind inference is that each family or grouping of five people has to choose one to stay at home. Even though the reader knows that is not the case, it still fuzzes the meaning, subconsciously (and if you don't know how to write for the subconscious, you shouldn't be writing headlines).
Percentage and fractions have no such implications: "20% of" and "a fifth of" don't conjure any illusions*.
* OK, so who immediately thought "unless you chop people into fifths!"? That's what I mean by writing for the subconscious.

90% of assumptions about other people are wrong* -- unless they don't understand percentages, of course, in which case, assuming they're stoopid is 100% correct.
* Yes, that's one of the 78% of made-up-on-the-spot statistics.

Who are you calling "they"?
(90% of statistics are made up)
If you can keep your head while those about you are losing theirs, perhaps you don't understand the situation.

It wouldn't surprise me.
We should put out fake news that it's only 4%, to prompt them to maybe get an education (or an additional prosthetic limb).
