@merill CMD.ms is staying up right? RIGHT?

Hey folks, some personal news. I’m leaving Microsoft. It’s been a privilege to work here, and I’m incredibly grateful for the people I’ve worked with, the customers I’ve learned from, and the support so many of you have shown me along the way. I’m now starting out on my own and chasing a dream I’ve had for a long time: building software that makes security more practical, accessible, and useful for the people doing the work every day. Why now? With all the change happening around us, I feel like new possibilities are opening up. I want to spend this next chapter building things I care deeply about, solving problems that matter, and doing work that brings me joy. I’m excited. Nervous. Grateful. My newsletters, podcast, Maester and other tools will all be part of this next chapter, and I’ll share more in the coming weeks. Thank you for being part of the journey so far. I’m looking forward to building this next chapter with your support.

@builtbybel All cleaners had their moment, not just CCleaner.

CCleaner had its moment. Power users moved on I'm building a modern Windows cleaner in C# / WinUI 3, fully driven by winapps2.ini Thinking about making it public 👀 #WindowsDev #WinUI3 #windows11

@bdam555 @jarwidmark @Microsoft365 Weird take, we use SAC for our servers but happy with MAC on endpoints.

@Microsoft365 is apparently going to drop the Semi-Annual Enterprise Channel which means you are going to get monthly feature updates for Office and you will like it! learn.microsoft.com/en-us/microsof…

@getrubix So how do you expect to achieve immediate device compliance i.e. without waiting for hours/days? You are essentially saying to give users blank devices because Intune cannot install apps during ESP making it a very poor user experience.

Your Enrollment Status Page isn't slow because of Intune. It's your app list. Here's the one configuration mistake that turns a 5-minute ESP into a 45-minute wait. Full walkthrough: youtu.be/bqz3nMKafc8 #intune #autopilot #microsoft365 #endpointmanagement #itadmin

@mniehaus This makes sense as we are already paying £100+ per user for E5, Copilot and Teams Premium so E7 will be the SKU to get :)

Had to check -- nope, not an April Fools prank. blogs.microsoft.com/blog/2026/03/0…

@fazzodude @richardhicks Yeah, don't use on-prem AD CS in conjunction with NDES and NPS if you have .1x deployed. The cert mapping only affects device certs, user certs are not affected. If you fancy something modern then SCEPman and RADIUSaaS is a good combo that allows device certs in Intune.

@richardhicks Is there a solution?

When issuing PKCS certificates to endpoints during hybrid #Entra ID join with #Autopilot, the strong mapping is missing, causing authentication issues. #pki #adcs #cloudpki #mdm #msintune #mobility #security #aovpn rmhci.co/49gZ5pi

@BC80891 @sintaxasn Check github.com/ChrisTitusTech… if you want the apps/config only on 1 PC or use chocolatey etc.

@sintaxasn Just looking into this as I just built a new PC. Is it possible to use winget to install stuff w/ PSADT (w/the GUI front end)? Since it’s just for me I don’t need InTune based… or is there a PSADT WinGet module to do this? If so, could it be run from the Install PSADT exe?

The PSADT team have released PSADT v4.1.8! Full details and download here: github.com/PSAppDeployToo… #psappdeploytoolkit #psadt #sccm #configmgr #intune

@Nasser14617263 @nikgeneburn Day 10 of everyone ignoring your stupid request.

@nikgeneburn Day 10 asking @nikgeneburn to add this outfit

@blulyffe @manuelitoitalia @nikgeneburn What speed and latency was the question but judging by your answer you don't know which makes us question everything else that could be wrong with your potato PC. Tarkov has always been a CPU bound game meaning RAM speed and more importantly latency plays a big role.

@manuelitoitalia @nikgeneburn 32gig ddr4s

@blulyffe @nikgeneburn Are you shocked? RTX 4070 is an absolute dog food of a card and it always has been.

@Nasser14617263 @nikgeneburn Why would he, it looks stupid?

@nikgeneburn Day 9 asking @nikgeneburn to add this outfit

@scdudes There is still plenty of "us" :)

For those who are using #ConfigMgr, here's what's new with version 2509: learn.microsoft.com/en-us/intune/c… #SCCM #MSIntune #Microsoft

@tinyzenji @nikgeneburn And why would you care what mode people are happily playing? Getting your ass handed to you in PvP much?

@nikgeneburn amazing gun, delete pve

@SThanatron @mniehaus Not everyone out there is double clicking .docx files to see the contents, don't be narrow minded.

@mniehaus What does m365 do that Libre office doesn't?

Microsoft is increasing the price of M365 E3 and E5 on July 1, 2026. Adjust your budgets now... microsoft.com/en-us/microsof…

@opgjdspogjdspih @fabian_bader What are you talking about, no one uses SSL 3.0, heck not even TLS 1 or 1.1 these days.. You got your wires properly crossed here mate.

@fabian_bader You should really not run anything SSL3 any more because every cipher can be decrypted using the ARM CPU in a modern phone, you might as well just skip encryption altogether.

So, Fortinet decided to deprecate SSL VPN. docs.fortinet.com/document/forti…

@nikgeneburn @Spuds_man asap meaning next week? What a shit show of a launch of 1.0 this is. You had one job and you still f'd all up. Well done.

@Spuds_man asap

oh bro, yes it is. the load increased overall: website - 10x auth center - 4x launcher - 4x yes, its on new server infrastructure prepared for release, but still - overloaded. yes, this is not an excuse - we are working to fix that. 6 years old flashbacks

@samilaiho Who in their right mind would open these outbound to the internet?

Scans for Port 8530/8531 (TCP). Likely related to WSUS Vulnerability CVE-2025-59287 isc.sans.edu/diary/rss/32440

@patrickmaur3r @rnabmitra @okieselb @IntuneSuppTeam but in reality probably only a license fee is the difference.

@patrickmaur3r @rnabmitra @okieselb @IntuneSuppTeam You don't need to reboot as often, it's in the name :)

Hotpatching is now also available for ARM64 devices #MSIntune techcommunity.microsoft.com/blog/Windows-I…

This is a typical liberal female. They can’t be fixed.
