Managing #Intune doesn’t have to feel complicated, I promise. 😊

In Part 2 of my Microsoft Graph series, I show how to use #MSGraph and #PowerShell to simplify your workflows without adding extra layers or tools.

Had such a great time chatting with @andrewpla.tech on the #PowerShell podcast about #Intune, #PowerShell, IntuneStack, #DevOps and getting started on your #automation journey.
Remember when people thought #PowerShell would take away jobs?

@allwayshype.com draws a great parallel between that moment and the current wave of AI anxiety.

Her reminder: “You’re not getting paid to write code. You’re getting paid to think. You’re getting paid to solve business problems.”

The government said they aren’t releasing SNAP benefits in November — but ALDI is helping families out. Their Thanksgiving meal bundle feeds 10 people for just $40! 🦃 Available now through Christmas Eve, it includes 21 items (like a 14-lb turkey + sides). Share this with everyone!

The truth is, you’ll never really know how far your kindness travels.

Something you said in passing might still be echoing in someone’s mind.

A small act that felt routine to you might have meant everything to them.

Don’t underestimate the ways you may have made a difference in someone’s life.

What if #Intune policy could promote itself based on success criteria I set in advance? 🧵

No more ClickOps. Just deploy, evaluate, and promote.

Dev, Test, and Prod not as separate environments, but as 'containers'. Prod wouldn't be special, just the last deployment stop.

If you're using (or thinking of using) GitHub Actions with Graph, take note of this awesome detail!
At #MMSMOA I kept seeing folks using client IDs and secrets in their #GitHub Actions workflows for #MSGraph.

I'm not an authentication expert, but I know enough to be paranoid.

There's a better way: OIDC federated credentials. Think of it like a system-managed identity, but for GitHub Actions.

What a week! Another fabulous @mmsmoa.bsky.social in the books. Picked up a lot of good info, met friends old and new, and had great conversations about real-life stuff with attendees! A little sad to be back home and in "normal" mode again, but looking forward to the next #MMSMOA!

Hanging out on Broadway in Nashville with the Belgians Tom and Kim. Great music and atmosphere! Nice way to come down from the #MMSMusicCity high.

This evening, the MMS Music City Edition kicked off with a welcome reception by the pool at the Grand Hyatt in Nashville. It was a great opportunity to reconnect with community friends and meet new faces. Tomorrow will be a packed day with sessions 👌

In addition to ASL interpreters having an important job, they're also (sometimes) more interesting to watch than those for whom they interpret.

Mad props for _any_ interpreter, TBH. I admire their ability to do what they do as seamlessly as they make it seem.
Shout out to the ASL interpreters at rock shows (or any show, really). That can't be easy. Especially if you are dancing/grooving while you sign.
