Hey @wsvguy.bsky.social - Can you point me in the direction of the PM who owns Azure Update Manager? I have some feedback I'd like to discuss, but my org blocks access to MS Store and Feedback Hub :(

Am I the only one who constant mis-reads "winapp" as "winamp" and then spend the next 10 minutes giggling to myself about it really whipping the llama's ass?

Sometimes I wonder if there is any correlation between how big "vibe coding", and AI code generation in general, has gotten vs the population of MBA-type middle managers pushing lines-of-code as a KPI...

Today I was prompted to change my Windows Hello PIN. As part of that reset, there was an option to "Allow letters and symbols to be used". Isn't that just... a password then? Go home Windows, you're drunk.

What day is it? why it's SHOUTY TUESDAY OF COURSE! *mumble mumble stupid blue screening hyper-v hosts*

Today's question of the day: Why do vendors think they can just make arbitrary changes to long-ratified standards? Found out today apparently PAN-OS doesn't support more than 30 characters in the CommonName field when it generates CSRs for TLS Inspection. Less than half the allowed standard...

Today, I asked the Government Representative in the Senate of Canada about how the Federal Government will protect the Charter rights of 2SLGBTQI+ Albertans in the face of the Government of Alberta threatening to use the Notwithstanding clause to violate their human rights. #cdnpoli

Anyone able to recommend some moderation/muted word feeds that will help me purge my timeline of politics? I'm spending way too much time manually adding words & phrases to my list This anxiety riddled Canadian head-case can't cope with the sheer volume of dumbfuckery going on in the US right now.

@nedpyle.com I was talking to my brother today about dogs and I showed him pictures of Darby, Indy, and Kell - He asked what their breeds were and for the life of me I can't remember! Now I feel like a negligent internet snoot booper! Help please?

@syfuhs.net @brd.bsky.social - Do either of you fine gentlemen happen to know who owns ADCS? Curious if this bug is/will ever get fixed: learn.microsoft.com/en-us/troubl...

"What is common knowledge in your field, but shocks outsiders?" That just because I work in IT doesn't mean I know how to fix your PC problems. I've been a server/storage/network guy forever - couldn't troubleshoot end-user compute issues if I tried! Much respect to those in customer-facing roles.

Why does today feel like it's going to be another Shouty Tuesday?

Shouty Tuesday? Oh yes. Yes it is. SHOUTY TUESDAY!!

Best thing I ever did on Bluesky so far is add the soon-to-return Commander-in-Cheetos last name to my blocked/muted word list. If only I had an equivalent list for the _rest_ of my existence.

Does anyone else feel like today is gonna end up being Shouty Wednesday?

Always 💖 Don't make me tap the sign

No one really follows me, but I'll introduce myself as well (as is the trend right now). I'm Chuck, aka Mnooseman. You can find me various places online doing various things. I'm also a Senior Systems Admin for a utility company around Edmonton AB.

Why do folks seem to love screwing with #GroupPolicy in #ActiveDirectory ? Just because a knob/lever/control exists does NOT mean you should be twiddling it! So many broken environments because people can't leave well enough alone...

Shouty Tuesday?

Sigh... People who in-place upgrade a Server 2012 VM to 2016 because they don't want to fight with migrating their Enterprise CA are my new mortal enemy...

Happy New Year, all!

Does anyone else feel like Elmo fucking up Xitter is the beginning of the end for social media? The whole community is fractured with some on Mastodon, some on Bluesky and some on Threads... Having expand to multiple platforms is kinda painful, truth told

Am I the only one to realize that Musk is well on the path to transforming into a real life Cave Johnson?

O_O I've finally arrived on Bluesky... It... feels like the bird-app used to when it was "good" and not Musky. I think I might like it here.
