Nice, Get-AzManagementGroupSubscription accepts -WhatIf and refuses to "create" the requested management group lol. Stumbled across this due to it inheriting whatif from a parent function. #powershell #azure

If I pointed an infrared camera at the night sky, would I see more stars/galaxies?

What’s the deal with that chiropractor table that “clicks” down when they push on the person. I mean it’s just a scam, right?

Should I keep this on my resume?

This still blows my mind. Couldn’t track down a bug in a script I wrote, so using GitHub copilot I asked if it had any ideas, and it’s like “sure, I see the problem” and it just fixed it. It’s one thing to just play around with it, but seeing it in action while I’m doing real work is just crazy.

If DST goes away, how big of a deal is that for all the devices and apps out there? Hopefully not as bad as I’m thinking.

Alright guess I haven't been paying attention, what's the deal with all these drone sightings?

Guess it's official, I'm now the technical lead for my team. But I don't think anything with my job role is really changing all that much.

Oh yes, it's the continuously declining Apple Savings APY rate. Down to 3.90% now.

iOS 18.2 is supposed to be out now but I’m still not seeing it. Anybody else?

Is #unifi still the go-to home network gear people use? I hear the u7 has 2.4ghz problems but I just want a solid stable “pro” home WiFi network.

I’m struggling to understand any business justification for a $200/mo #ChatGPT Pro subscription over the standard plan.

I guess #Copilot hasn’t made it into #Planner yet? I think I could see some potential benefit there.

With Customer Lockbox in #Azure, you have to be elevated (pim) when the MS support engineer sends the request or you will never see it. That seems like an odd design decision.

I guess I listen to Spotify a lot.

I wish #Bluesky didn’t hide the “back” button when scrolling on someone’s feed. Gotta go back to the top and then it appears.

I had no idea Gamers Nexus was right down the road from me.

Finally putting my new 3D printer to use printing random Christmas things. This is fun.

And the next step: @github.com Stars can now also verify themselves on verified-bluesky-rpu7w3bv.fermyon.app! Thanks to @santoshyadav.dev for the help and @eliostruyf.com for testing 😊 (By chance, both are Microsoft MVPs as well, but that is of course not required)
