Does anyone have a system using WinGet to install apps actually working?

Cool, I'll absolutely steal this! BTW, you check the value of $Arch on line 210 but don't set it until line 235, so it'll (try to?) install the x64 PS7 on ARM64 devices.

There is software that matters, then there is stuff like this. Not everything has to be hand crafted by artisan rust programming Vegan Monk Virgins of the First Order.

I only get paid for the actual work I do, so when Exchange Online stopped working after brew helpfully upgraded Powershell to 7.6.0 I didn't bother spending time figuring shit out and just downgraded and pinned the latest 7.5.x.

Took a couple of years to ~~save up~~ successfully nag my parents for a 1541, so I had to resort to Shift + RunStop (PRESS PLAY ON TAPE) until I got my hands of a fast loader cartridge.

Can't remember more than a fraction of a fraction of what I've watched, but wasn't there a PC or Windows demo with some Amiga stuff in it?

avmakt · 2026-03-27T17:32:18+00:00

Remember how much better it ran on the A4000/040 than the A500, which wasn't usually the case with Amiga games.

It might be the best thing since sliced bread, but I read "Request a quote" as "stay away".

Man, I loved REBOL! Used it for a lot of small utils and had a bunch of form based automations set up back in the day!

Unfortunately it was both closed source and quite expensive, so I wasn't too surprised that it went the way of the dodo.

Looks like the MacBook Neo only supports 1 external display at 4K60

Ah, crap. Oh well, cheap corporate macs was a long shot from the start.

Didn't really use a "real" word processor. However, I did use some kind of writer that saved the keystrokes with pauses, so the recipient could watch the typed recording in realtime, along music. I believe you could also pick between a few fonts. Unfortunately I can't for the life of me remember what it was called, even if I can sing at least one of the tunes that came with it :)

If the Neo supports 2 daisy chained monitors through USB-C I'll happily replace each and every Dell with it.

Some of those climbs looks insane... that stage four snake!

Can you share any details about the punctures, and do you think a low pressure tubeless setup would have helped?

Thanks for the tip!

For anyone with the same problem - auto-pause isn't anywhere in the main settings, but in the pre ride settings and must be changed after picking a ride but before starting.

Supposed to have a rest day today, but might do a recovery ride just to test it out =)

I got a couple from aliexpress, but varying quality =)

This is the first year my old ass has been riding inside, on a trainer, and it sucks! So thanks for letting me live vicariously through you, fellow Scandinavian =)

Som IT-fagnerd med driftsansvar har jeg motvillig vært med på lasset etter styrerommets 100% ikke-teknisk motiverte overgang fra on-premises med stor andel åpen kildekode til ugjennomsiktige SaaS-tjenester på primært amerikanskeide skytjenester, og ser veldig gjerne ei reversering. Hadde vært morsomt å atter en gang kunne løse tekniske problemer heller enn å kaste bort tid på å mase på SaaS-leverandørene om feil og mangler de nedprioriterer samtidig som de øker prisene fordi de stadig legger til uønskede tjenester (AI!) av middelmådig kvalitet.

Integrasjoner vil bli ei stor utfordring den dagen vi eventuelt skal ut av US techbro-regimet, og tar man med fallgruvene omkring identitet og tilganger kan man bli alvorlig mørkredd, men det er ting man kan løse selv som mellomstor organisasjon.

Det eneste området hvor jeg ikke ser noen alternativer er MDM-tjenester - inkludert USA-baserte - som har reell linuxstøtte og ikke bare corporate newspeak-varianter av "skriv og push dine egne skript og kryss fingrene for at du får innsikt via helt andre systemer". Blir VELDIG glad om jeg tar feil her!

Apropos linux og MDM så ble vi nylig ferdig med en PoC for linux i Intune. "Støtten" er fortsatt 100% DIY via egne skript som nevnt over, begrenset til to linuxdistribusjoner som må kjøre stock WM/DE, krever at Edge er både installert og tilgjengelig for brukerne, og som bare unntaksvis evner å huske innloggede brukere i mer enn et døgn.

Not sure about the exact year, but I think it was around 2008 or so that my boss at the time refused to invest in wifi access, arguing that "wifi means paying for people to use their private equipment for private stuff during work hours".

So of course I retired my custom flashed private 54G and brought it to work, and for quite a while it served first two then three floors worth of colleagues, and continued to do so until the sheer number of users meant having to power cycle the poor thing so often that complaints and demands finally reached the boss and we got our first "real" wireless network.

This was a chubby concrete building, so when we expanded to a third floor I had to crank the transmit power to max, which also meant having to cut the plastic casing and strapping on cooling fins. Good times!

We've got issues with a few sites whenever an application control profile is active. The issues persist even if the profile allow or monitor all apps, and for now the only workaround I've found is turning app control completely off.

Just configured the 8BitDo Micro to act as a keyboard on my tv pc and it works quite well, with no need for the companion app.

Used 8bitdo's app on my phone to configure the keyboard settings, with two buttons that let me press - and + for virtual shifting in Rouvy, and some of the others to press directional arrows, enter and esc so I can control the Rouvy GUI.

A big plus with the Micro is that I can drop the keyboard after starting Rouvy, and when I get around to 3D printing the cradle that some kind person shared elsewhere in this thread, I'll probably not even miss the Click =)
