  A nice bonus of starting to live in the Windows Terminal is that I picked up a useful habit: Running "winget upgrade --all" to keep my s**t up to date. I know all you Linux geeks have been using package managers for ages. Also, I did know about WinGet before, sure. Yet before using CLI coding agents, I had very little reason to open the terminal. Now, I leverage Codex to keep track of my software and OS updates in Obsidian and it fits nicely into that workflow. #Windows #WinG...

  It's not just a new icon, or a renamed mobile app. Microsoft 365 Copilot is dead, as a product name. At least MS has started scrubbing away the "365" part from their materials. Their hero business product for 3 years, now getting rebranded with the name of Microsoft Copilot consumer product with even less adoption... https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-365/copilot/microsoft-365-copilot-overview #Microsoft #Copilot #Microsoft365

  Last Train to Plancentral. No more release plans or waves for Microsoft Power Platform after 2026 RW 1. From now on, everything will be merged to what used to be called the Microsoft 365 Roadmap. As one might expect, I have some thoughts to share on this: https://www.perspectives.plus/p/the-last-release-wave #PowerPlatform #Dynamics365 #Microsoft365

  When administering Power Platform, all you need is 2Pac + Big Mac. There's a great community database of these and more Microsoft short URLs right here: https://akams.fyi #Microsoft #AkaMs

  The Onion can soon do the funniest thing: having a bigger circulation than WaPo, owned by billionaire Jeff Bezos.🖕 As for the Infowars IPR, things are clear: “Business plans? Not really.

  "Halliprojekti on ollut käynnissä pitkään. Se sai uutta puhtia, kun Ilpo Kokkilan rakennusyhtiö SRV tuli tammikuussa 2025 kehittäjäkumppaniksi hankkeeseen. Huhtikuussa 2025 Orpon hallitus päätti kehysriihessä 35 miljoonan euron valtiontuesta Garden Helsingille. Kokkila on pitkään ollut kokoomuksen keskeisiä varainkerääjiä, joka on myös itse ja yhtiöidensä kautta lahjoittanut rahaa kokoomukselle ja puolueen kärkiehdokkaille." https://www.hs.fi/tutkiva/art-2000012108491.html 💎 #Garden...

  I switched from Chrome to Vivaldi 3 months ago. But I only discovered Web Panels this week. OMG, they are _amazing_! It just so happens that I built the perfect thing for such a sidebar 1 year ago: my OFFI[dot]CEO alternative to the Microsoft Office home page that MS decided to redirect to M365 Copilot instead. Just add this URL to your panel and configure the settings as you wish: https://offi.ceo #MicrosoftOffice #Microsoft365 #Copilot #Vivaldi #Vivaldi_browser

  When Microsoft 365 Copilot Cowork needs to create an Excel file, it uses LibreOffice - not Excel.😏 The actual process seems to be: Claude agent calls openpyxl (Python library) to generate the file. Then, the headless soffice of LibreOffice is used to validate the output. Finally, the user is shown a file in Excel for the web. It makes perfect sense, given how Anthropic built Cowork and Microsoft just licensed it from them. #Copilot #Cowork #Excel #LibreOffice

  More speakers in the office.🔊 After 2 years of rocking my 2.1 setup of Klipsch RP-500M + 12" subwoofer R-121SW, I decided to go 4.1 and grab a pair of R-51M's from an outlet. This €1k set of #Klipsch audio gear packs a mean punch. I plugged it to my Onkyo amp from 15y back and it's a nice audio upgrade for the Niiranen Advisory Oy office space.👌 I ditched my small Presonus monitors used for Teams calls and just surrounded myself with proper sound all around. Because mu...

  Are you using Power Platform Dataflows still? I was, too, but it's time to figure out an alternative instead of wishing they'd ever become governable, nor support proper ALM. Another dead feature in Microsoft's evergreen cloud: https://www.perspectives.plus/p/i-see-dead-features-dataflows #PowerPlatform #Dataflows #Dataverse #Microsoft

  Every middle-aged white male should have one of these shirts, right? Well, now I fixed that.✅ I vividly remember Fear Of The Dark being played on repeat at the summer camp when I was 15yo. While I ended up deep in the world of electronic music, I've still got a few Iron Maiden albums in my collection. And the "Live in Helsinki 1992" version of the title track is of course the best one ever!🤘 #IronMaiden #FearOfTheDark

  Markdown is now supported on OneDrive and SharePoint: https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/blog/onedriveblog/introducing-markdown-support-in-sharepoint-and-onedrive/4512174 As expected, nothing fancy yet (no Mermaid support, for instance). I really hope MS keeps working on this and doesn't just settle for a "ticked the box" version. We shall see. #Markdown #OneDrive #SharePoint #Microsoft365

  "Copilot’s agentic capabilities in PowerPoint are now GA!"🥳 https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-365/blog/2026/04/22/copilots-agentic-capabilities-in-word-excel-and-powerpoint-are-generally-available/ And here's the output I got when asking Copilot in PowerPoint to do an introduction of my company. It spent 10 minutes on research, produced one title slide and said "here's a clean company intro."😂 #Copilot #PowerPoint #Microsoft365

  If Copilot really is "for entertainment purposes only", then it should be advertised like this.🍿 Celebrating 1+ years since users of M365 Office tools have been redirected to M365 Copilot chat UI by force. The digital equivalent of eyelid clamps.😬 (No, the poster is not GenAI, just copy-paste & font generators, thanks for asking.) #Microsoft #Copilot #ClockworkOrange #SatyaNadella

  Sure, Microsoft may have 80+ products with the name "Copilot" in them. But did you know that with PowerPoint alone, there are at least five (5!) different ways to use Copilot for creating presentations?😬 I tested them all so you wouldn't have to: https://www.perspectives.plus/p/ai-still-cant-figure-out-powerpoint #PowerPoint #Copilot #Microsoft365

  "Microsoft has intentionally broken a fundamental assumption about how files are stored on a computer running Windows. They do this without asking the user, and without adequately explaining what they have done. Microsoft is very obviously employing dark patterns in order to goad its users into paying for Onedrive storage." https://lzon.ca/posts/other/microsoft-user-abuse/ #Microsoft #OneDrive #darkuxpattern

  Ever had to answer the question "What's included in Copilot Chat without the premium M365 Copilot license?" Yeah, it's tricky.😅 Microsoft's own materials are either out of date or too tiny to zoom into.🧐 So, I took their latst materials and created my own comparison slide. There's of course a lot more to #Microsoft365 and #Copilot licensing than can fit into a 2D table. I wrote more about the latest #CopilotChat #softwarelicensing changes in Th...

  I have built a thing!🥳 Or actually, I have built a V2 of a thing that existed in a different format: https://releaseplans.net/ Instead of the earlier Power BI report, you can now browse Power Platform and Dynamics 365 release plan items in a modern web experience. Data is pulled from Microsoft's API once a day, just like before.
