Vintage Microsoft! #MicrosoftUglySweater

I hope everyone is having a wonderful and fun #MSIgnite here in San Francisco this week!

Happy #NationalAlbumDay! Picked up this limited edition copy of the Foo Fighters’ debut album! It’s in mint green colored vinyl with bonus live tracks! #FF30

We're doing a limited-edition release of Windows XP-inspired Crocs with custom Jibbitz charms and a Bliss-themed drawstring backpack! Details in this blog post! I scored a pair - my first ever Crocs. #MicrosoftCrocSweepstakes #Microsoft50 blogs.windows.com/windowsexper...

Yes, I am taking on a new role within the Windows and Devices group here at @microsoft.com focusing on communications. I won't be as visible as I have been all these years but you'll still see me posting about Microsoft, Windows, and nerdy things of course.

Happy #BatmanDay2025!

Happy 20th birthday to Techmeme. This has been my go-to for tech industry news for most of that time and one of the homepages that opens whenever I launch my browser (Edge of course). I’ve also been featured on Techmeme for blog posts I’ve written which is always fun.

I was a bit on the fence, but I am excited and fascinated about #StarTrek Starfleet Academy based on what I see here! ew.com/star-trek-st...

I hate coming here and seeing screenshots of tweets/posts from X. It feels silly. Why be here if all people share are screenshots from the "other place".

I can't be at SDCC this year but I'll be buying a copy of this.

Wow. #Superman  was incredible. This movie has a lot of heart.

I’m so very excited about this. #Superman

I will be having this.

Spending the day cataloging my vinyl record collection and listening to records.

This doesn't match what my friends who live in Los Angeles are saying. Yes, there is a "dispute" between California and the federal government but its the "fiery protests" mentioned that doesn't quite seem to be what others are saying...

I am so excited about the work we're doing for gaming handhelds and will be picking one of these up when its released!

I’m sorry but this is fucked up. Sign the petition.

Another #LEGO set done. The Shuttle Carrier Aircraft. NASA partnered with Boeing in the late 70’s to use a modified 747 to haul the prototype Orbiter Space Shuttle Enterprise between locations during early testing for the Space Shuttle Program. This was a very fun set to build.

There is no discounting the impact Jony Ive has had even on modern Apple products today. But this really is weird. A AI wearable product people actually want that isn't their phone (right now)? I'm not sold.

I want this back. I loved doing this on my PC when I was a kid. Take my compute cycles to search for extraterrestrial intelligence! Please!

I probably should be more active here.

I am absolutely loving the new 12-inch Surface Pro. What a nifty little PC. It's my main personal tablet.

Xbox Alpha, Alpha Skip Ahead, and Beta Insiders should have the following recent games & apps list features: hide system apps, reduce tile count, and pins. Also you should see in-game benefits for free-to-play games in Game Pass's perks gallery, and new accessibility tag filters in My games & apps.

Today at #MSBuild, we’re unveiling a new era: Agentic DevOps. From #GitHubCopilot #coding agent to #AzureSREagent and #Copilot app modernization, you can ship faster, reduce tech debt, and secure your stack. This is software development reimagined. aka.ms/AAwbfai

Hello #MSBuild! Come visit the Windows Insider team at our little booth at The Hub!

I’m still looking for suggestions on vinyl records!

I wrote about listening to and loving vinyl records in 2025 and talked about grabbing some #RecordStoreDay2025 records! www.brandonleblanc.com/listening-an...

@jamesgunn.bsky.social I’m in a vinyl record mood. Favorite vinyl record?

My Record Store Day haul! #RecordStoreDay2025 #RSD2025

I’ve been struggling to keep up with Daredevil: Born Again because how good the allegory is with what’s going on with current events. It’s one of the best shows today but hard to watch as it makes me frustrated. But. Catching up tonight.

I’m 10 minutes in on #DaredevilBornAgain and I’m shook.

I’m super pissed off about this. I’ve been collecting #Batman action figures from @toddmcfarlane.bsky.social for over 4 years now. As a collector this is just absolute shit.

I absolutely love "Mask of Zorro" and own the 25th anniversary steelbook UHD 4K version.

I look forward to when we can all move past sharing screenshots of posts from X here.

I wrote about moving my blog from WordPress to @ghost.org. www.brandonleblanc.com/moved-to-gho...

This update also includes support for also finding photos saved in the cloud with improved Windows Search on Snapdragon-powered Copilot+ PCs!

We're releasing Build 26120.3073 to #WindowsInsiders in the Dev Channel and also as an optional update in the Beta Channel for Insiders there to upgrade if they want. Please read the blog post as it includes all kinds of good information. We've also added a few known issues. aka.ms/wip-dev-1-31...

I’m so excited for this movie!

What will happen in space policy over the next four years? It's clear there will be some drastic changes. Here's what I can glean based on past behavior and this first week of speeches, orders, announcements, and personnel moves: 🛰️

I really love this change!

Excited to watch #StarTrek Section 31 this weekend! I am genuinely fascinated by the concept of a Star Trek adventure outside the Federation. I caught some of the early reviews which sadly aren't so positive about it but I am hoping I enjoy it!

Moved my personal blog to @ghost.org this weekend. Migration didn’t go as smoothly as I wanted. Still have a few issues to resolve including trying to figure out the header image.

Love will never do without you. Janet Jackson told me so.

If any of y'all plan on going to Disneyland or Disney World, my friend @hollyamos22.bsky.social makes Mickey Ears!

@jamesgunn.bsky.social have you considered making a cut of Peacemaker Season 1 that strips out that "Justice League" stuff?? I promise you this is an honest question and I'm not trying to be a little shit. Promise.

What a lovely evening going into the weekend. @bdsams.com and I are Jeff Goldbluming each other. I am drinking whiskey and migrating my personal blog over to @ghost.org. And I've got my pup. I need this right now.

My progress moving my personal blog to @ghost.org is slow going. I was able to migrate most of the content over but almost all my images are missing from my posts so I have to manually replace them/update them.

The most frustrating thing about social media is watching so many people waste so much energy having an outrage over the most dumbest things. If wish people spent more time allocating their energy to bettering themselves and supporting those around them.

Unpopular opinion (as I cook): The Flash movie isn't as bad as people call it. I think the only reason folks think its bad is because at the time the movie came out, it was already known that James Gunn was rebooting everything. But I think the film still holds. Sorry.

I am making Red Lobster Cheddar Bay Biscuits. I am using the official mix. But I am making them. I am learning to cook and bake. It's wonderful. I regret that at 41 I did not take the time to cook and bake far earlier in life.
