Full title:
Microsoft doles out PowerShell 7 preview. It works. People like it. We can't find a reason to be sarcastic about it.
Now, THAT is newsworthy.

New preview of PowerShell 7... PING!

You can find all the Windows Ping list threads with FR search: just search on keyword "windowspinglist".

“PowerShell ... It’s not just for Windows any more...”

Naturally, Microsoft just had to create its own language, rather than working with any of the existing scripting languages.

windows had a thing in the release before 95 that let you automate stuff where it made a file of all your mouse commands opening files etc and made it into a .bat file or .cmd file i forget which that was very useful so of course they killed it in 95 but i don’t remember what it was called

That's nice. But I don't want shiny new things. I want Microsoft to stop building a profile on me, my family, my friends, and my co-workers. I want them to stop targeting us with-and-for advertising. We desire not to be a product they sell to corporations and governments. If they can't do that, then I can't use their shiny new things and I'll stick with my Linux laptop.

I use PS all the time. I wrote a PS script to do CRUD on SQLLite databases and various other stuff. Anything you can do with a managed .Net program you can do with PS. and you don’t need an install of VS or any other compiler. You can even P/Invoke and reference methods in unmanaged Win32 assemblies from PS.
