Before #Intune policies or MDM check-ins, there was... a patent. Filed in 2005. Quietly shaping how every #Windows device still checks in today. We dug up the origin story, and it’s a wild, nerdy ride ➡️ https://bit.ly/3Leefl5 #MoreThanJustPatching #PatchMyPC

🚨If your #PowerShell CI/CD pipelines are failing, it's probably not because they're broken. Many GitHub workflows use Install-Module and the PowerShell Gallery is currently impacted by the Azure Front Door outage. 🎛️PowerShell gallery Status Page:

I tried to login last week and couldn't and now I can't even load it. The PS Gallery is cursed for me.

Finding out about the #azure outage because a pipeline keeps failing due to the #PowerShell gallery being down says a lot about me I guess... Time to use @posh.guru alternate mirror in production? DNS sure is a harsh mistress. #MVPBuzz

Only a few days until this great little mini-con from my good friends at @psconf.eu happens. Spend an afternoon hearing from #PowerShell experts.... And me...

Hey! next week I'm virtually hanging out with friends at this fun little mini-con! Do I remember what I'm talking about? Will @posh.guru, @hcritter.bsky.social and @bjompen.com cause chaos? Make sure to attend to find out! #MVPBuzz

Going through some life altering changes in my life. Spending a weekend by myself in Copenhagen. Making plans for the future. Things are weird. But coffee helps.

Oh no, say it ain't so... I have to use #PowerShell now? www.theregister.com/2025/09/10/v...

I generally despise Microsoft and whatever comes out of it but I think PowerShell is a cool software. Works on MacOS and Linux too.

A friendly reminder that variable syntax in #AzureDevOps isn't important until it is. Which is all the time. Refresh your knowledge today so you don't end up like *someone* I know who was fixing a pipeline template bug at 1 am... It's me, hi! I'm the idiot, it's me... #DevOps #MVPBuzz #PowerShell

I'll bring some #PowerShell desk mats too, for those joining us in #Bern... Like you see on @powers-hell.com's setup here:

Dearest @sonarqube.bsky.social - Can you please stop paywalling Dark Mode behind your SaaS product? You've paywalled SAML SSO on the cloud behind an even more expensive license, which, after your recent LoC pricing changes, has forced me to run a PoC with SonarQube Community, and my eyes hate this.

In my latest blog article, I explore a couple of ways that I use #PowerShell to add flexibility to my use of AutomatedLab. If you're an AutomatedLab user or want to learn more about it, the post links to my friend @dotdot.horse's fantastic AutomatedLab introductory article. Read here:

So here is my origin story for lokka.dev, my Microsoft Graph MCP server. I was having an amazing Sri Lankan kothu from the Lokka food truck when the idea hit me. So that's how we got from exotic Sri Lankan food to AI tooling for Microsoft Graph 😂

🎆 Can PowerShell control fireworks? At #PSConfEU 2025, @leodarcy.bsky.social showed how he reverse engineered a firing system & built a PowerShell module to automate it — safely. 🎟️ Early bird 2026 → psconf.eu #PowerShell #Automation #Hardware #DevOps

Lots of neat new stuff! Check out the thread below for demos, my favorites: - Window Accent Color probably is the first step in replacing Peacock with a first-party option and I'm here for it. - Full MCP spec support. I just can't keep up with these rapid changes. - Lots of terminal suggest new!

Hey #PowerShell nerds - I was just talking to @allwayshype.com about a session I did at @psconf.eu back in 2019 (the before times) and I had a question.... Does anyone still use plaster? if so, let me know what you are using it for below!

Humbled and exhausted. #MVPBuzz

I had a lot of fun doing this talk and learned a few things from talks by @jakubjares.com and @jborean.bsky.social that have already come in useful in my first days back at work. #psconfeu rocks!

"t's Monday morning. You just logged in using your MFA authentication. Now you just got yourself a nice cup of coffee, sipping your coffee. Do you feel secure" Love the way this session starts :-) #pwsh #Security #MFA

"you will never be as cool as us (but you can try and we love you)"

I've published an experimental module called WinUIShell: github.com/mdgrs-mei/Wi... WinUIShell allows you to create WinUI 3 applications in PowerShell. Only a small number of UI elements are supported for now but they will be added gradually. If you get a chance to try, let me know what you think!

I haven't done a lot of social engagement this year. But I'll be here. I can't wait to see everyone.

Far from tech-related, but this is one of those "never thought I'd see happen" shows. Wish it happened under better circumstances. #IShouldHaveStartedAChemicalFire

I literally never stop talking about authentication. It's equal parts super interesting and the most mundane thing in the world. I love it.

I was so excited to watch @posh.guru & @andrewpla.tech talk about Justin's #PowerShell Runtime Containers & #GitHub #DevContainers on the #PowerShell podcast. youtu.be/u45I8-oOO1Q?... If you've ever been curious, or felt overwhelmed at how to get started, this episode is for you!

A few years ago someone in marketing said "No one comes to the conference to see highly technical talks" so I trolled them by naming my next talk with Stephen Toub "Highly Technical Talk." This year's talk is ALL code and zero AI as Stephen implements Channels from scratch youtu.be/J3IQBI5HVOw?...
