It was always a poor rip-off of NetWare Directory Services, that was a cool product which could do *everything* when used with the Zenworks management tool. Still, AD is a helluva lot better than what came before. Trouble is it's designed for on-prem and not cloud..

My pitch to Jason Statham. Sorry, couldn't stop myself.

I decided to write a movie for Jason Statham in which ICE invades the small midwestern town of Tinyville and EX-DELTA FORCE SAS NAVY SEAL SHERIFF MASON MCKILLCHAIN must choose between the law and revenge, but not for long.

Microsoft's attitude on a lot of stuff is "sure we *have* the data but you can't look at it all at once". Reporting consoles often have completely arbitrary restrictions.

40 years ago today, we lost seven heroes aboard Challenger. As an astronaut who commanded the space shuttle after this tragedy, I think about them often. Their courage pushed the boundaries of exploration. Today, we remember their sacrifice and the legacy they left behind.
