@rjong999 The infosec.exchange Mastodon instance is pretty active now, with a number of identity folks on.

What is the best alternative for Twitter, friends?

@SteveSyfuhs I've slept at the office twice. Once, we were working to restore email service after an active-active SCSI cluster failure. The second was during a multi-day ice storm, and a few of us took refuge in the office since we had generator power and network access.

I've been ruminating on the idea that some work projects deserve all your energy and whether it's reasonable to sleep at the office and such. I can't say that I haven't slept at the office. Mind you, that meeting was super boring.

I'm not leaving Twitter (yet), but have set up a Mastodon presence: @alexbchalmers@infosec.exchange If you are in the fediverse, feel free to give me a follow.

#identitypeeps that might depart given the new management -- Where are you headed and what is your handle? Let's keep the conversation going, wherever that might be.

@jakob_davidson I am working on a new config with FAS now and would like to move this forward. What is the end-to-end experience for users? Can they auth to the storefront using any AAD auth method but login to the app/desktop via CBA?

Post updated. Azure AD CBA is now GA and is supporting Windows 10 + 11 and also Windows Server 2019 and 2022. julianjakob.com/citrix-fas-azu…

I really think @DisneyPlus missed an opportunity with the @DisneyMoana Sing Along by not including the Polynesian elements of the songs with translations. Worse, the CC just says "Singing in foreign language" 🙄 For those interested: opetaiafoai.com/translations.h… #parentmusings

@Mat__Savage @SwiftOnSecurity True story: one of the reasons I got my first paid sysadmin role in college was that I could navigate the VMS DCL help system. I believe @jsnover cited DCL and its help system as influences on Powershell's design.

You could probably just hire Windows Server admins based on their ability to open the PowerShell window and type literally anything that works

@dllprop @SwiftOnSecurity @RipleyJones5 There have been a number of times @donttrythis has talked about working on Cowboys, including about how Eastwood likes to work "cheap", so a single prop may need to have all the functionality needed for all shots. That was especially true for the orbiter, IIRC.

@RipleyJones5 @SwiftOnSecurity From what I’ve heard there were some mission control scenes in the movie where they took great pains to make their fake MCC as realistic as possible. They even got screen shots of how the monitors would look. I have a Prop console monitor.

Does anyone else think about the 2000 movie 'Space Cowboys' at least once a month

@vibronet @FIDOAlliance @andrewshikiar This is great positioning. I was discussing this with my team in the last week. It will be important for a number of use cases that we can identify a "passkey" and device-bound credentials differently in our systems.

Very useful range visualization positioning @FIDOAlliance #passkey on the the spectrum of authentication methods’ relative strengths. Tweeting the pic as it will come in useful when we’ll finally release a certain #IdentityUnlocked episode 😛 @ timcappalli @andrewshikiar

I was surprised by my kid with gifts for "@ColtonHerta Daddy Day" since I was at @IMS yesterday for the #Indy500. No idea where she developed the idea, but we had a nice cookout and she even came up with a song. 🤣 It was too bad Colton had a bad day, as he def has a fan.

As the draft sessions for @Identiverse start pouring in, I thought it might be useful to share Vittorio's NON OFFICIAL advice on presentation fundamentals. I have been reviewing 100s of decks in the past 2 decades: I know there are recurrent issues that are easy to prevent. 1/n

Having an issue with @AzDataFactory data flows. Trying to pull data from the Microsoft Graph API via a REST query but can't get it to paginate. The same pagination rule works fine as a Copy Data action... Is there a known issue with ADF DF pagination rules?

@TruBluDevil Sigh... back when Indiana (or the rest of the country for that matter) had a sensible Republican senator. There were a lot of social or economic policies I disagreed with Sen Lugar on, but also so many things that I did agree with. A voice sorely missed in our body politic.

I learned today that my proposal for @Identiverse wasn't accepted. Stay tuned, however, as I'm going to try to convert it to some kind of post... no promises... Congratulations to all the speakers that will be presenting. I hope to be able to see you all in Denver in June!

@IdentityMonk @idpro_org This is both awesome and impossible. I love it!

WORDLE for the #identity nerds and @idpro_org rsk0315.github.io/playground/pas…

@IdentityHutch @vibronet @sphcow @NishantK @jonlehtinen Can we get a BBBC website going, or at least a super thread of the suggestions? I know I'm a few behind at this point.

As mentioned on #BlueBirdVA. I have it in deadtree version too! @IdentityHutch @sphcow @NishantK @jonlehtinen

Once it isn't too spoilery, I'm going to make my profile pic a still from #BookofBobaFett that is cuter than any doggo cuddling a kitten. There was so. much. squee. in this last episode.

@arynncrow Between Encanto and Bluey right now, I'm not sure I'm not 5 years old myself.

I don’t have data to back this up, but I do have 100% confidence that I am listening to “We Don’t Talk About Bruno” at least as often as households with children under 5.

@arynncrow @codekaiju We just need to organize the ultimate unconference. Giant conference center split into lightly themed salons, each salon with a collection of tables, with a bar and light food service. Essentially, the best part of every con - after hours - with an option to capture the convos.

@codekaiju Next we need ConCon, a conference to showcase all the conferences we could be conferencing at, to make the best choice.

If you want to help new AzureAD PowerShell PM @derrickkimani to get in touch with the community, reply to this tweet. He wants to extend a list of people he follows interested in the current changes of #AzureAD #PowerShell module.
