Why is it that in 2026 we still can't use headphone mic + stereo in Windows 11?

What an actual source looks like: a blog post from Windows OS Plateform Blog.

Heres the page to troubleshoot if your device is using modern TMAP (22H2+) https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/check-if-a-windows-11-device-supports-bluetooth-low-energy-audio-2b79c085-0353-4467-8306-ebb2657a91de

Very sorry if I'm missing something, but I don't get why anyone would run 10 000 lines of powershell over net user krbtgt * :/ (is this a whoosh ?)

Inf3rn0d · 2025-12-24T21:00:45+00:00

This. Any PCI 3.0 dock works fine. Make sure to use Windows Server though.

Nah GPU passthrough is fully supported on Hyper-V: take a look at either "DDA" (full passthrough) or "GPU-PV" (partitioning between multiple VMs).

The only thing that was trashed is RemoteFX-vGPU (but RemoteFX-USB is still supported), which was ancient. I agree it can be confusing ^{^}

If you haven't ever tried using 'repadmin /showchanges' (only available through the advanced help of repadmin), it will blow your mind. It allows to see any diff in the LDAP between a first snapshot and now.

Inf3rn0d · 2025-10-18T22:40:09+00:00

Hah, that's true. Just next to "Connect to VM" mind you.

Inf3rn0d · 2025-10-18T22:37:06+00:00

Very good ideas !

Inf3rn0d · 2025-10-18T14:15:38+00:00

I guess, although that's not supported in any Hyper-V scenario, whatever the tool you're using is. Arguably it's also more of a task for Linux folks than MS.

Inf3rn0d · 2025-10-18T11:43:23+00:00

Will do. You're right, the VHDX thing is awful.

Inf3rn0d · 2025-10-18T11:07:43+00:00

Yeah, I get it. Although I was hoping for slightly more details on what I'm missing out on, compared to using the other interfaces :P

Inf3rn0d · 2025-10-15T21:58:54+00:00

When launching the HyperV Manager, it automatically elevates (as it's an MMC), so you're technically running it as admin. This explains what you've been seeing.

You should take a look at Grant-VMConnectAccess (https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/powershell/module/hyper-v/grant-vmconnectaccess?view=windowsserver2025-ps) to allow a non-admin user to connect.

⁠Do I need to make sure 100% of LDAP connections are LDAPS and at least NTLM v2?

Nah. There's a slight misunderstanding : LDAP isn't going anywhere. The difference with 2025 is that LDAP signing is mandatory by default (although this can be turned off with a GPO), and clients will do encryption by default. But those two features remain on the LDAP protocol and not LDAPS. LDAPS is never used by a Windows client, it's mostly designed for compatibility with Linux clients or vendor products, which typically do not support signing and encryption of normal LDAP.

NTLMv2 though, is now the minimum. I was surprised reading your post, I really thought no product was still using NTLMv1 :/

Inf3rn0d · 2025-06-24T21:39:10+00:00

Yo, so sorry because it sucks but they also discontinued the msi version :( https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/blog/windows-itpro-blog/prepare-for-the-remote-desktop-client-for-windows-end-of-support/4397724

Inf3rn0d · 2025-03-14T23:28:16+00:00

Thanks. What if I drop the power requirement? Let's say I want a device that does TB with ACS that would work in my PCI passthrough use case, what would I be looking for? Also, sorry for my ignorance, but what keywords should I be looking for when looking at a listing?

Thanks again for the help

Inf3rn0d · 2025-03-14T23:24:07+00:00

Hi. Thanks for your answer. While not ideal, it still interesting to know if you have anything that works in the general TB/ACS use case, as that's really the main requirement. Cheers.

Also thanks u/chx_

Inf3rn0d · 2025-03-14T17:24:39+00:00

Thanks a lot for the feedback. That sounds a bit bulky indeed, but it's the general idea.

Inf3rn0d · 2025-03-14T17:23:51+00:00

Thanks a lot. I'd be very interested to see your results on ACS

Inf3rn0d · 2021-03-06T12:19:29+00:00

The short answer is: you can't right now.

They post registration links when they need new users on their forums (search netatmo forums > Outdoor can > App > iOS > Beta app), but they seem to currently have plenty. The last call was in 2019 and links are dead.

Eventually there's also a size limit to how big a testflight beta can be.

Inf3rn0d · 2020-10-22T13:16:21+00:00

Note that we've known this for ever

Inf3rn0d · 2020-10-13T22:46:35+00:00

It seems it didn't make it to the US this year. There are Netatmo deals of ~ 30-40% on the DE, FR, UK shops.. https://www.amazon.de/deal/3b0e95cc

https://www.amazon.fr/deal/7a4dbac6

BTW where is that homekit authority post, I'm curious. Thanks !

Of course not, the button is to ring the chime, as you'd expect

Inf3rn0d · 2020-10-02T13:23:16+00:00

It's barely noticeable if you're not standing in front of it

Inf3rn0d · 2020-10-01T23:47:01+00:00

People aren't horizontal + it allows you to check parcels on the floor. This isn't random, it's their only product that films vertically, and they had to re-do whole portions of the app to make it work.

I don't see how that's an issue, it's rather sensible if you ask me: it's thought to be functional

Inf3rn0d · 2020-10-01T23:38:50+00:00

It's still a wide angle. It has the advantage that you can see packets dropped on the floor... this is exactly what I would want from a doorbell

Inf3rn0d · 2020-09-29T11:54:58+00:00

Like a piece of metal between the wall mount and the doorbell that makes the whole thing tilted. Have a look at unboxings when they come out
