Having worked on AKSH (my Discord bot) and witnessing how easy it made deploying and managing a lab
on AWS, I wanted something similar for my local lab as well. On my local machines I use VMWare Workstation to create and manage virtual labs. Even though it has an intuitive GUI, it lacks a mechanism to perform actions (start, stop, snapshot, revert etc.) on multiple virtual machines via single click (maybe that's where vSphere comes in!). However, to compensate for that, it exposes a command line interface (vmrun.exe) that can aid in automating actions on multiple virtual machines.

In this episode, we discuss Brett's unusual path to IT. He discusses how his contributions to the
community have changed over the years. We discuss the similarities in problem-solving between daily tasks and coding. Jordan learns that listing yak shaving in Twitter bios is not a secret language between the PowerShell community but is a common expression. Last, we discussed his trip to South Hampton to attend a PowerShell user group, where he was able to catch up with several people from the PowerShell community.

spelling bee that does what I want it to do, so I've attempted to make my own by piecing together things I've found online for text-to-speech and creating forms in PowerShell - both of which I have no experience with. While it's ugly, I think it does everything I want it to do now. I'm starting with words.csv which has the word, how it's spelled, and a sentence:

This is a little script I use to prevent messenger software from marking me as inactive. It presses
Scroll Lock once a minute while running. I added a time window, for example you can set it to only keep you active between 8:00AM - 5:00PM. It runs the job in the background, so it will continue to run until you click Turn Off even if the tool is closed. I created a shortcut to run the tool and pinned it to my taskbar.
