What is the biggest lie in tech and why is it Update and Shutdown? #FridayThoughts

Damn 😭

💡 The Death of Manual Docs: A DevOps Approach to Power Platform Docs Ian Tweedie shows how #PowerPlatform solutions can be documented automatically using Azure DevOps pipelines, producing diagrams and Word docs from solution metadata 📺 Watch now → youtu.be/iljeesT50uM

Hey friends, the baby that I made Baby Smash for is going to turn 21 this year. So I updated with it an all new website, installer, new .net 10 code base, and code signed executable. Please test it. Code on Github babysmash.com

The Christmas cooking thread is back for 2025! This time we have ditched the board in favour of going digital, so we have the Surface 2 Go rocking! #ConsultantChristmas

Look out. #Supergirl lands in theaters June 26.

Want to use Power Platform Pipelines with delegated deployments but getting stuck on connections? 🤷 I've just released a new solution to help with this. An app to manage connections, a flow to reconfigure connections per environment and pipeline. www.mattcollinsjones.co.uk/single-post/... #ALM

Have you ever thought this job is so basic even a robot could do it? Look no further, Power Automate are up next in: What is and what is it used for? Are you curious about what Power Automate is and what it's for? Who really has a need for it?

Is everyone enjoying the Black Friday 3 months we are having? 😅

Many BN(O) families in Warrington are worried about sudden rule changes. They’ve contributed so much to our town. My ask in Parliament was simple: keep the pathway stable and honour the commitments already made.

Got to the other train station early today so grabbed a large Dick's. Should be tasty.

I'm loving Hades 2. It's no surprise, I loved Hades 1 but man did they just ramp all the things up I loved and toned down all the things I hated... Which wasn't much. Except the damn Rat King Uh-Oh! 😡

This is one of the most confusing articles I've read. Pizza Hut is to close 68 resturants, with over 1200 employees possibly losing their jobs 😢 But Pizza Hut just bought Pizza Hut, saving 64 restaurants, and saving over 1300 jobs 👏 What did I just read? 🙃

I've started a new video series on Power Platform Pipelines! This will take users through installation, governing, usage and extending of Power Platform Pipelines, enabling better ALM for organisations. Check out my first video below. youtu.be/3_LwcgdWEuk #PowerPlatform #ALM #Microsoft

Kinda wild Apple will kick ICEBlock out of the App Store on safety grounds but the Saudi government app that lets men track women (their “property”) and control their travel is fully allowed even after the Human Rights Watch AND members of the Senate begged them to ban it.

It's time! #TaylorSwift

My statement on the Manchester Yom Kippur Attacks.

Take out the trash day. Put out all your headlines on a Friday so that newspapers only have so much space to write a story and they can't cover all the stories in detail. Seems like that's what Microsoft did today except everything is online and half the articles are written and published by AI 🙃

Another reason why men can just be replaced 🤷

This is awesome! I completed Hades with my 3 month old son asleep on my lap, but I didn't give birth. This woman is a badass!!

ABC announced Monday that it has lifted its suspension on Jimmy Kimmel Live! and that the late-night talk show will return on Tuesday, September 23rd.

When you spend the extra 10 minutes in bed and therefore get to the train station slightly too late to get a coffee 😭

Golden Square store has closed 'in solidarity' with Gaza

I started taking multi vitamins a few days ago. After taking 2 from the pack of 30 my brain goes: Maybe I should buy another pack for when I run out in 28 days 🙃

The treadmill screening of ‘THE LONG WALK’ took place, where every person had to walk on a treadmill faster than 3MPH for the whole movie. If they stopped, they were escorted out of the theater.

23 years ago I got a Game Cube with Metroid Prime. I loved the game but the constant enemy respawn and dark areas, made me not finish it. I bought the remaster recently and I can say, I finally finished Metroid Prime! Missed 1 missile expansion 😬

I bought a new media server to replace a 10+ year HP Micro server recently. The size difference and the power difference is staggering 😅 I love tech!

Finally got around to putting up my lightsaber wall mountings that I got as a Christmas present. I did not think they would be strong enough for Cal Kestis' lightsaber... I'll post in a week if it's still up 😅 #StarWars #Lightsabers #TheForce

It’s wild that the UK has passed a law requiring Reddit and Wikipedia to age verify users. The law was framed as protecting children from online pornography but seems to have greatly expanded its scope as all such laws do.

This is extremely cool. GOG is taking a stand against payment processors caving to fundamentalist religious groups and is offering a bunch of "banned" games for free. freedomtobuy.games

For a story about an Alien and super powered beings, it sure was about the humanity of it all. One of my favourite films of the year! ❤️

Been a bit of a long week, so now I'm treating myself to a trip to the cinema for Superman which I've not been able to see yet. #LookUp

PSA on links: On Bluesky, there’s no limit to the number of links you can share, and they will receive the same visibility as your other posts 💙

It's crazy to think that opposing genocide could even possibly be a negative thing. I just don't get people sometimes and it makes me lose faith in a lot of things.

About damn time 👏

Let's go! Vanilla ice latte with oat milk! #ConsultantLife

Do we still need stories about an aspirational immigrant who's so devoted to his adopted country that he regularly puts himself in danger to help even those who fear and distrust him, and who's primary antagonist is an egotistical tech billionaire? Yes, fucking obviously. You numpties.

😭

Gave this a go yesterday, but didn't expect it to like it. It is 🔥🔥🔥

My Xbox Series X has been making a loud noise for a couple of weeks. I took it apart to clean and it didn't fix it. Ordered a new fan from @ifixit.com and solved the problem. Also, doing this does not void a warranty... Not that my launch day Series X is within warranty 😂

When you start watching season 4 of The Bear so you make your 3 year old a picky tea and arrange it on a plate neatly instead of throwing it together. #TheBear

In an uber on the way home from #EPPC25 So far the guy is not texting and has his seat belt on, so I feel better about this trip. I'll be glad to be home, exhausted but happy.

My uber driver is not wearing his seat belt and has been texting while doing 80 on the motorway... Let's hope I make it to the airport and to #EPPC25 #WearYourSeatBelt

This is incredible

I'm super happy to announce the release of my Power Platform Pipelines Framework. This is designed to help organisations adopt #Pipelines and think about the strategy around rolling this out, regardless of size. github.com/MattCollins-... #PowerPlatformPipelines #PowerPlatform #CommunityRocks #ALM

I think we should change the terms Pro-Code and Low-Code to More-Code and Less-Code. I mean, nobody is writing in binary or assembly, so it's just people who want to write more code and people who want to right less 🤷 #PowerPlatform #TodayIThought

Anyone else banned from #WhatsApp at the moment? I sent a message to a friend and now I'm banned for spam 🤷 Logged onto Reddit and found lots of reports for regular people just being randomly banned the last couple of hours/days. #WhatsAppBan

New Blog Post 😃 In this #CopilotStudio I share how to open a PDF to the specific page where the citation is made. 📕 A colleague told me "this is the best use of customizing citations I've seen yet" 🌟 🔗 www.matthewdevaney.com/set-citation...
