#PowerShell-based
powershell (with .Net) is capable enough to replace some of core utils i think, which means a powershell-based linux distro should be possible albeit cursed

Here's about the smallest #event driven #http #server I've written in #powershell (yet)

It's just 42 lines 😉

Bonus points: you can #debug each request!

the funny thing is that you should not have to rewrite the OS to do this. operating systems already run everything else on top of a text-based interface. on windows this is the command prompt or powershell. you do not need to remove anything to bolt an LLM onto it.
This is the future of Windows. Microsoft wants to rewrite Windows to turn computers into AI PCs that you talk to. It's now bringing AI features to all Windows 11 PCs today, in a bid to convince you to talk to your PC and let AI control it. Full details 👇 www.theverge.com/news/799768/...

Got to hang with my buddy @andrewpla.tech for another PowerShell Wednesday (third time if I remember correctly)!

We give you a pair programming session working on a terminal-based platformer game written entirely in PowerShell: PSPlatformer!

Quite interesting reading about the "Hi, I'm a web script based malware and this is what I do".

PowerShell scripts, unlike coded ones, run in memory, downloads ransomware and hard to detect - no .exe to detect.

addendum: based on the advice of the linked reddit thread I think I was able to simply remove the entire gaming bar by opening a Powershell and entering:

Why people continue to post articles about #PowerShell scripts based on the soon-to-be retired AzureAD and MSOL modules is incomprehensible. Didn't they get the memo? It's time to embrace the Microsoft Graph PowerShell SDK.

WHOA! 🤯

We can now configure FQDN based filtering in Defender Firewall without Intune/Defender for Endpoint?

Looks like we can do create these rules via PowerShell or GPO (likely need to update your ADMX templates)

Learning #PowerShell syntax is the easy part. The *Why* of PowerShell maybe isn't so obvious. That's why I wrote Behind the PowerShell Pipeline based on my 20 years of PowerShell experience. Learn what you didn't know you needed to know.

We're working on PnP PowerShell 3.0 which will contain some breaking changes. If you're running the latest nightly build you will already run this version. It will be based upon .NET 8 and requires at least PowerShell 7.4.3 or newer.
