Modern start menu search was designed to drive users toward Bing and give MS-favored results to users. It's hot garbage and has been for a while. So yeah, if you rely on as an IT pro it you probably aren't very technical.
You can launch any common inbox or Office app and most MMC panels from the Win-R menu. And most of them haven't changed since Windows 2000 / Office 95. Not being able to adapt and improve upon how you perform your job is sad.
It's been broken and slow as hell since Vista. So yes, when IT "professionals" haven't figured out other ways to run common programs by now, it hints at how remedial their skills are.
Have you had Culver's root beer? It's so good. It might be even better than A&W.

The start menu has sucked for a long time, but you don't have to use it. I cringe when I see other IT folks using its search feature to launch common apps.
At least they are improving the app list with a nice category view and removing the All Apps button (still in preview). That'll at least upgrade it from hot garbage to okayish.

I mean, on a typewriter yeah. But otherwise, no.
I don't think many places encrypt/hash email addresses, but even if they did they could just apply the hash algorithm to what you entered to compare the hashes.
Can't say I've had this exact roast, but everything I've had from them has been good.
Yep that's how my desktops and servers are set up. I only recently started adding the TPM PIN to my laptops for a bit of extra protection from cold boot / evil maid attacks.
