Can't believe I've survived having a little one for over a year now! And more importantly they've survived me being their father 🀣

The unknown and much-appreciated part of #PSConfEU?
The talks and the late-night hallway chats.

Early bird deal includes 3 nights at the venue hotel. Sleep on site, stay in the loop.

I did think about looking at ExcelFast but I can't take a dependency on pre-alpha code for this project and I'm not sure if it can do the table and pivot table stuff that Export-Excel does. Managed to solve by caching 100 records in memory and then exporting as a batch

Pro tip: Don't call Export-Excel 1500 times while also performing autosizing and creating tables and pivot tables. Its a tad slow.... #powershell

Hey, for clarity it's not my campaign, I used to work with Steve and he's done so much for me over the years that the least I can do is donate and boost his campaign but yes it is still open and any donations will be gratefully received

I've had the pleasure to work with Steve for many years, I can assure you that he is not only technically brilliant, a true technology visionary (not the LinkedIn Kind) and the kindest guy that I've ever met. It is without doubt that I wouldn't be where I am today without him

#psconfeu was epic! It has an amazing reputation which is well deserved and even then it exceeded expectations! If you are even remotely interested in #powershell I can't recommend it highly enough. Looking forward to seeing some new and returning friends in Germany for #psconfeu26

No, it seems to have endless permissions issues and takes 10 seconds to load the VM page. It's faster and more reliable to use FCM even with the recent upgrades. I really want to love it but it just doesn't get the job done better than the old tool πŸ˜”

I also found the documentation lacking for explicitly stating what was needed to configure on a brand new cluster + security baseline to enable all the WinRM + CredSSP permissions to get it working. Having an easy to follow guide or recommend GPO would really help in this case I feel

Hi Jeff, I REALLY want to love this product but when it still takes 10 seconds to load 6 VMs and clicking into a VM errors unless the cluster is enabled for S2D I can't justify if over FCM ☹️ all up-to-date and using the preview from the summit. On a 2 node manually built WS2022 cluster
