Imagine finding a log with something like "we couldn't stop shareholders, our planet is doomed. We will start with a new colony on the planet closer to sun, perhaps this time we will not destroy our home"

I thought we knew we already did that with the rover.

Your IT has set up Conditional Access policies with a Sign-in Frequency set too low (it should really be labeled as a period, because it defines the time period that will occur before reauthentication is required). For regular users like all of you, forcing reauthentication that many times each day is excessive and just cruel on the users. They maybe thought it would make them super secure, but it only trains the users that MFA is an annoyance rather than an important security feature.

It’s a setting that can easily be changed, so make some noise and see if you can get some feedback passed through your org structure to IT.

Agreed. Sounds like a config problem if the whole org is seeing it.

Yep. I sign in once when the app is opened (which happens automatically as I’m logged into the computer as my Entra ID) and then am never prompted again until I close and reopen Teams.

Something is misconfigured in the environment, or there is a security policy that is set way too high, or one is scoped incorrectly. It is definitely not the normal or expected user experience.

Teams has a lot of faults, but that one is on your org’s admins and security team. Hopefully for you it’s a mistake and not done intentionally.

Bill Gates logged in under six different usernames to downvote it.

That negates the entire biblical story too.

To be honest, we're talking microsoft teams here.

Artemis II astronauts going around the Moon: "I have two Outlooks, neither of which works"

Astronauts during the first Mars mission: "I previously had two Teams versions, neither of which worked, and now there's apparently a third one, and it doesn't work either"

There is a novel "Microserfs" many years back and in it if I recall all the guys at MS drove Ford Taurus because at some point Gates drove one. So all the little serfs wanted to be like him.

Amazing

6 is too many.

"Houston, what is 'New Teams Classic' and why is it asking me to log in three times in a row?"

If someone keeps pressing the button then it will fluctuate between 6 and 7 downvotes

I'd believe there are six people in management here who see Teams as a "good solution"

Or calendar invites

If you go to notifications and filter by unread you will probably be able to find what it is

You can get multiple sign in requests if you change devices regularly. It's common to require authentication any time you change device

Agile

Indeed it does. But it's not like people actually believe creation myths anyway >.>

They took a lot of care to sanitise all of the landers and rovers

I had the same thought. Evidence of a long extinct and clearly human civilization.

I don't think I've ever had to sign into Teams (PR Outlook, for that matter) in my desktop. Mobile, I have to after changing my password. I assumed all the MS apps signed me in with my domain login on my laptop. On weird issue I have is things like SharePoint and Dynamics 365 asking me to sign in again after its already brought up the site, and clicking the button to do it just brings a blank pop-up that immediately disappears and I'm logged "for real" I guess.

Not in my experience. I sign into lots of different systems every day and run Teams on all of them, and I never see any MFA prompts so long as I’m on a managed asset. Every system logs in to Teams automatically just by opening the Teams app.

Now, if you’re talking about a pinned app or SharePoint link or something once you’re in the app, maybe. But default chat and meetings should be the same experience, in terms of authentication workflow for the user, as launching and using Outlook.

Funny enough, he found out later he had three outlooks lol

Yeah that’s usually the case, but some orgs don’t domain join devices cause they are bad.

Also the dynamics blank popup thing is your windows auth working

Mars is doing the me gusta meme face.

It turns out all the Rust is just dyno clippies that rusted out millions of years ago when the planet was populated by clipies.

One day kids won't understand the reference and will probably come up with stuff like "That's funny, didn't I donate my left testicle as required by Microsoft government for population maintenance purposes? Why are they asking me to donate my remaining testicle?

Exact replicas of everyone on Earth. But we all have something... off about us.

Obviously it hurt him so much he's become the worlds largest compensator. Maybe that's why all his kids are IVF
