Hope This Helps - A Tech Podcast30 Jun 2021

HTH0037 - East from Weast

Windows 11 is a thing, Solarwinds is still a thing, Zune is still a thing, PowerBI regional migrations, and Windows 10 learns a new trick. Hope This Helps is back!

Pre-Boot

Windows 11 and the TPM

Golf is boring, unless it's mini-golf

LinkedIn is like the golf course of the internet

Boot Up

Tiff and Steve's desktop computers, Macs

Proof of Work vs Proof of Stake

Solarwinds hacks + version number madness

Get them on the payroll!

Remember LulzSec? / LulzSec Leader 'Sabu' Flips on Friends for FBI

Orion web console tells you one thing in the web console, Database Manager tells you something different

Version number schemes don't line up…Product Upgrade Advisor uses YYYY.MM based versions while the database still uses legacy 12.x version schemes

What the heck is Bonjour?

Bonjour chat

Barrier uses Bonjour to find other Barrier nodes

Windows 11 phone integration

Android apps

Gripes about macOS Catalyst/"Project Marzipan" apps being half-baked

macOS uses Home/End keys wrong

More Windows 11 thoughts

Windows 11 will require TPM 2.0, UEFI, and Secure Boot

Surface Studio 2 can't run Windows 11

People is Removed

Brief tangent on disconnecting from social media/cloud services/Windows

State of the Zunion

Elon Musk's tweet

Steve's Zune-to-M3U-to-AirSonic PowerShell script for playlists

PowerBI data migrations + general cloud frustrations

Configure Multi-Geo support for Power BI Premium

Originally you could only pick one region, but more options expanded over time

Egress costs are expensive - On-prem datacenters wouldn't see these OpEx costs

It's a headache when moving regions

MS can sometimes even lose your data during a regional migration?

Out-GridView is temporarily (?) dead (on Mac/Linux)

No more work is being done on Avalonia-based Out-GridView until we move to .NET MAUI

Let's talk about how great Out-GridView is on Windows and how nobody knows about it

Windows 10 News (literally)

The new Windows 10 taskbar "News and interests" widget

Why exactly was this shoved into a cumulative update? This is a new feature.

Disabling "News and Interests" causes entire notification area to go blank

The actual content is low quality
