I enjoyed starfleet academy and the first two seasons of discovery but struggled with season 3 and never finished it. But Star Trek has always been about acceptance and seeing other peoples perspectives so it’s been disappointing to see the fan responses

Really digging ID8 from @lane8music.bsky.social spring mixtape, or as I like to call it “everybody knows that seagull”

(I have no idea what the words say)

I think I’d either mock it or set it up so that the unit test actually builds a new container image that does the install and test as part of the container build.

Is this for a dotnet app specifically?
I’ve used the SSL_CERT_FILE env var with dotnet Linux images to set the CA. I think there’s a directory one too.
Unsure if there’s something that accepts base64 encoded bundles though.

If you have copilot open up the initial branch you can push changes to it and copilot will see them and be able to update the changes inside the same PR without opening a new one. It’s an annoying work around but it does work

I don’t know about fish completions specifically but there is a module for standard Unix completions: Microsoft.PowerShell.UnixCompleters

Which has the Import-UnixCompleters command.

They’re not though, that’s my point. With a yearly license you can stop paying and pick back up again when it’s convenient for you without losing access to the product you previously paid for. With subscription you do lose access. 4 security conscious stuff that ==, but 4 lots of apps it’s not.

No. But if my options are
1. pay a yearly subscription to have access to something at all,
2. or pay a yearly license fee for continued development AND have the ability to forgo updates but still use the software if I decide those future updates aren’t worth the value then I’m choosing option 2.

Nitpick, but as long as you can keep using it without requiring updates is that not still a purchase?

I’d prefer this with some better terms than an actual subscription requirement for use.

Yep, In my experience you have to actually tell it to render it for you or you’ll just see the text window.

A cartoon reading guide for the Discworld series by Terry Pratchett. The guide is styled like an ancient scroll with illustrations of a skeleton and a book at the top. It includes colorful boxes connected by lines, each representing a book or series within the Discworld universe, categorized by themes such as Rincewind, Witches, Death, and Young Adult. The text at the top reads "The Discworld Reading Order Guide 2.2" by Krysztof H. Niezgoda and Anna Francuz.

PowerShell works great on Linux and macOS too. No reason to change when you can use the one true object oriented scripting language everywhere

On a related note, optional fuzzy matching for mute terms would be appreciated too.

It’s going to be so great when this shit gets installed on everyone’s lowest-bidder work laptops, with 16 gb of RAM and 23 separate pieces of monitoring spyware. So productive.

Meh, I’m a free speech absolutist in that I absolutely believe the government should not be allowed to interfere in individuals rights to say whatever the fuck they want. But I absolutely believe that doesn’t protect you from any interpersonal conflict for saying dumb shit.

Concerns around PowerShell 7 and community involvement · PowerShell PowerShell · Discussion #26844 I’d like to raise some concerns regarding the recent progress and communication around PowerShell and related projects. I want to emphasize that I have a great deal of respect for the team and the ...

Over the past couple of months I've grown increasingly concerned around the future of PowerShell. It seems like the days of community involvement are getting less frequent so I wrote github.com/PowerShell/P.... Would love anyone else to share their thoughts if they wish to.

I prefer it, but it’s mostly familiarity. They both have good and bad features.
I prefer PowerShell’s verbosity and verb-noun convention because it makes it readable (when done right).
But PowerShells real strength is that it’s a dotnet program and lets you access all of the underlying c# types.
