I wrote a (German) article about the new edition of Desired State Configuration, DSC v3. To kick things off, I conducted an interview with @gaelcolas.bsky.social , which you can read (without a paywall) in English with the link below. github.com/thorstenbutz...

Für die aktuelle Ausgabe des IT-Administrator (März 2026) habe ich einen Artikel über die Neuauflage der Desired State Configuration, DSC v3, geschrieben. - Link zum Artikel (kostenpflichtig) www.it-administrator.de/heftarchiv-a...

Congratulazioni, Italia! A historic win 🏆 #🏉

There are no greater differences than between (e.g.) German and (e.g.) France #Rugby. While sixnations are the sporting event with the highest average attendance and almost ludicrous pricing (3 to 4 digits), the German and Swiss team play on somthing like a school yard. BUT you can watch both on TV

Meet me in Sarajevo! #MCT

I am watching Wales against Ireland. Not against the „Republic of Ireland“, but the whole island of Ireland. North and south combined. Piecefully. That’s possible in Rugby 🏉 , why not everywhere? Fun fact: they play 2 hymns for the Irish.

If you are not occasionally overwhelmed by what is going on with AI, you are either: 1) Not paying attention. 2) Not understanding what you are seeing. 3) Made of much sturdier stuff than I.

Definitely worth reading, check it out !

🤣

For the 1st time, one of my articles was published in an English (!) Linux (!) focused magazine. Makes me smile .. www.admin-magazine.com/Archive/2026...

For those who read German: you find an article by me about DSC3 in the next issue (March) of the IT-Administrator.de magazine! Better2gether. #DSC3

Hello World, hello MCTs ! This account is meant to be a central hub for MCTs, especially for all the things community driven. A website will follow and maybe more. Put a hashtag #MCT in your related posts, make yourself visible as an MCT/alumni.

My favorite video with Jeffrey Snover: youtu.be/ZlivNGCkakY I watch this often since I regularly show this in my trainings. It’s getting more interest day after day, year after year. Jeffrey talks about #Powershell v1 and it’s „unique selling point“. He nails it so beautifully, a must watch.

Been working on this one for a while — it's a little bit of history of a key foundation of internet technology, and a little bit of an explainer about how people _actually_ invent things. This is the amazing (true!) story of how Markdown took over the world. www.anildash.com/2026/01/09/h...

I built my personal website in a few hours by pairing with #GitHub Copilot. GitHub Actions deploys it automatically after every push. ba4bes.com Want me to share the workflow + structure? #GitHubCopilot #GitHubActions #PersonalWebsite @github.com #Astro #Azure www.youtube.com/shorts/ECtaz...

Meine letzte gute Tat für dieses Jahr: Eine neue Folge der Sliding Windows ist im Kasten. #slwcast

Since today is the shortest day of the year in the northern hemisphere (aka begin of winter), it’s a perfect match with my PoShaKucha „about_Epochs“. All you ever wanted to know about calendars but were afraid to ask. youtu.be/frbtbLPvN24

I‘ll be available in our Gather world this morning (Friday). Any Q related to #PSConfEU 2026 ? Check your abstracts (CfP end this weekend)? Thinking about a PoShKucha? Bike tour? Let’s chat !

I think Microsoft does not advertise enough. Perhaps it should incorporate more and more intrusive advertising into its own products. 😉 www.windowscentral.com/artificial-i...

Happy Birthday #PowerShell ! Here's a little #Tangled string of a script to calculate your age: tangled.org/strings/did:...

@andibellstedt.bsky.social @robsewell.com @funbucket.dev VibeCoding is the new auto-completion. Can't do anything about that.

Inspired by the talks from various community heros like @robsewell.com, @funbucket.dev and finally @thorsten.butz.io with his #OTP project, I decided to get a bit deeper into this. The project maybe has some kind of niche-usage, but I can utilize it for real world challenges.

He’s back. 👔 The man who started it all — @jsnover.com, Inventor of #PowerShell, will open #PSConfEU 2026 in #Wiesbaden with the keynote you don’t want to miss. 🎟️ Tickets now available → psconf.eu #Automation #IT #Germany #Europe
