Closely followed by the #PowerShell team's bot being asked to sign the CLA (Contributor License Agreement) This is funny as bot's themselves cannot sign an agreement, even if they can respond to a comment like this, even if said bot is "employed" by a Company like Microsoft This needs another 1/x
In today's funny #PowerShell related things I found whilst looking at PR's in the main repo This comment from @sdwheeler.bsky.social about the PowerShell team's automation bot (not Claude or copilot etc) being thanked in the changelogs. I'm on the fence about this "highly controversial topic"
Definitely a worthwhile few hours digging in to what is needed with adding the -minprofile (or it's full name, minprofilescriptpath) parameter to a local test build of the pwsh executable. By using it, internally it implies that you want both -noprofile & -noexit to run
If only more apps took this approach to pricing #Error-404-PricingNotFound #Bad404Jokes
Hey @discord.com what's the point in Requesting a manual review (under 64551722) to just close the request via what looks to be an automated response. Especially as I recommended the use of a tried and tested UK Government service & one that does not share an image file either. Do better!
I think this section sums up the mood of most users of #Windows especially as I expect as high as 75-90%+ of users out there aren't even close to being "PowerUsers", Developers or Administrators & even those in those groups likely don't use/know many of the decade+ old features Windows has today.
I dunno why @github.com Coplilot cannot re-read an issue that has been updated like in this below image but this really really slows down it's ability to do any work like this addition to the hugo theme that I'm extending for mroe accessibility and functionality github.com/kilasuit/hug...
Hey @merill.net sorry for the direct ping This blank Entra ID login box on #FireFox browsers that i've been getting for months now (with Multi-Account Containers extension) seems to be due to a Content Security Policy (I think) I have console logs if that would help with a fix at all..?
Been roughly 3 months on and off trying to 100% #Slipknot #BeforeIForget on Guitar Hero 3 (a Game that still only works on the @xbox.com 360 due ot no Back compat for it 😔) (2 attempts earlier 2nite I did 693 note streak & 98%)
Look at what I found (reminds me of the other social site) at @skircle.bsky.social (skircle.me) @mrpowershell.com / @jdhitsolutions.com I think this would be an interesting project to build some additonal automation around this and further BlueSky Automation (like pic AltText) what's your thoughts?
Oopsie @powershell.org.uk Will fix this soon (same with dumb-question.info too)
The continued usefulness of this from 2016 @psconf.eu is just amazing. For 2026 would be great for them again with a duel USB-A & USB-C adaptor. #PSConfEu
I feel that somehow @github.com added this because of @threddyrex.com and friends
and this is a great example of how to do it from the pandoc.org/try/ page
Yes I did just schedule the restart for the latest @windowsinsider.bsky.social install to start at 4:04am In fact I think that's when I'm gonna schedule them all from now on
Finally found a blue drink to go in this blue mug of mine that I received a long time ago
He's bigger at the UK HQ (if he's still there!) This was taken at one of the conferences I was lucky enough to be one of many helpers at in December 2019.
I added to the ALT text all those locations too btw I however forgot about the National Sea Life Center in Birmingham which is a short walk awy from Thinktank, Science Museum in Birmingham.
This may seem like a bigish tour of the country, but all these are accessible easily enough using a mix of trains, coaches, buses & taxi's or driving isn't too bad. You'd get to see some great views along this journey too & you could do this in 7-10 days easy with overnights on the journey
Not sure to be proud of my this load time of my minimal #PowerShell Profile or be scared I've been wondering what the difference may be and thanks to @posh.guru for sharing the Benchmarking gist the other day & @jakubjares.com for building the Profiler module now I know.
Neat #Git tip If you ever want to commit just a few lines in a file at a time that you've been working on then you can do either `git add -p ` or in vscode highlight the lines and and run the Git: Stage Selected Range
Help! Calling for backup as we have #999 open issues in the #PowerShell repo (though I expect this to grow a little bit before it comes back down to a lower level)
Sorry for the ping @syfuhs.net - not sure on best way in reporting this I'm getting on quite a regular occurance using a FireFox Container & attempting to login to one of my many accounts where I get this screen which should show me the TOTP for the Authenticator app popup Is this a known issue?
Hey #PowerShell & #WinGet people Does WinGet show you this when trying to upgrade/install a package like PowerShell? Here's my writeup on how to fix this (expanding on @samerde.day3bits.com comments) github.com/PowerShell/P... Hope this helps you!
