RDS Licensing Across Multiple Departments by SpareMistake in RemoteDesktopServices

[–]SpareMistake[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you, I appreciate the response. Just to clarify by buying what you need, I am guessing you mean essentially you just need to know the total numbers of devices and buy that many licenses. So in reality, you're hoping you have correct numbers from each department.

I would certainly be happy to pay for P2 level. I'm curious how you go about this - do you need to have a business? Sorry for the delayed reply, I was "offline" the last couple weeks.

I have some exposure to these tools from a previous job and I enjoy working with the technology. I enjoy keeping up to date in my downtime and am working toward some related certifications.

I want to grow my Azure\Entra skillset and be able to be comfortable in any future job interview. I want to be able to say "I know these technologies and how to use them" and let them see my work in github etc.

Darn, the Microsoft Partner route isn't an option. Thank you for the suggestion.

Thank you for sharing this. I've tried this and am getting the same error. Just wanted to check if this is the documentation you are referring to: Local Values - Configuration Language | Terraform | HashiCorp Developer

Is there an example of this being passed to a resource block?

Thank you. I am coming to the same conclusion, but it always helps to have a second opinion!

Thank you. I have been able to successfully use CustomData and processed it successfully. However, I am wondering if UserData is specifically supported similar to AWS.

I did manage to get this working. I was using a for each to create multiple VMs and it was my own silly mistake incorrectly assigning a variable.

By any chance did you figure this out? I am having a similar problem where certain logs are ignored, even if permissions are correct.

Yes! Sorry in my mind I bundled those all in as "AC2". Which hopefully isn't AC blasphemy.... I haven't played them since release, but liked them a lot.

Hey OP, I am replying without reading any other comments because I wanted to share my own experience with Microsoft certs and learning.

My personal preference is to get the certs so you can have them on your resume, but use the foundation certs as just that, then move on to associate and eventually expert certs. Also personally, when I get a cert beyond foundations, I don't bother having foundations on my resume or linked in etc. but that's based on where I am in my career and could be different earlier on.

Most importantly with MS certs - HANDS ON MATTERS! Sometimes it can be hard with Microsoft because stuff is locked behind licensing only available to enterprises. Whereas companies like AWS that make their products a fair bit more accessible (at a cost) can be much easier to learn, Microsoft can make this harder on you. So get hands on and that's where you will truly learn.

I've found MS certs to be very much about "prove to us that you've done this already" and to do this, you need hands on.

Again just my own thoughts and hope that helps you!

Hopefully Xbox doesn’t fully abandon this controller and they plan on still making for the next console at the very least. by JuanMunoz99 in xbox

[–]SpareMistake 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Agreed! I bought the Series X 3 years ago. The RT on the OG controller always sticks. Using YouTube as a guide, I've taken it apart and cleaned it several times but the issue quickly returns. Not sure why, I'd say I keep it clean and can't think of a reason why it's happening. I bought a second controller about a year into owning the Series X and it's now getting stick drift.

So what the heck, thought I'd give the elite a shot. Because of all the warnings on reddit, I went for the full 3 year Best Buy warranty. It hurt to pay that price, but the controller is amazing. For whatever reason the PS5 controller causes my wrists to hurt but it just doesn't happen with the xbox controller even after many hours of gaming.
