@coleens_ 14.4 built into my uncle’s Acer desktop. Blazing. Fast.

@bhawthorne lol, I played the same second-to-last word.

@reynir @rra I'm not sure if that would smell better or worse than petrochemical-derived diesel.

@Migueldeicaza I just started the process. Are you reading my email?

@Viss Listened to this the other night. Still holds up so well.

@mainframed767 That's what this ad is about. The onboarding process is 24 weeks long.

@GossiTheDog Correction. You don't need to wear pants of any sort to own the internet.

@autolycos @michelestrider Why do they get to call that stuff chili

Locksmith v2023.11 is now available!
This is a landmark release - it's the first where I didn't write a single line of code!

https://github.com/TrimarcJake/Locksmith/releases/tag/v2023.11

October 2023 was super-hectic for the Locksmith core team, so we decided to skip the October release.

That little break was so worth it because it gave @SamErde some time to finalize a new Locksmith feature: a -Scans parameter which can be used to specify exactly which misconfigurations Locksmith should search for. By default, all scan types will run, but if you want to search only for templates that match the definition of ESC1 and ESC3, try

PS> Invoke-Locksmith -Scans ESC1,ESC3!

Unsure which scan(s) you want to run? Try

PS> Invoke-Locksmith -Scans PromptMe

If you're running Windows Powershell or Powershell Core w/ Microsoft.PowerShell.ConsoleGuiTools installed, running

PS> Invoke-Locksmith -Scans PromptMe

will give you a GridView window that you can use to select one or more scan types.

Powering the selection window is a dictionary class containing important info about each issue such as name, summary, links, finding code, and fixing code. As Locksmith moves forward, this dictionary will be a vital piece of improving Locksmith's usability.

Improvements:

- New command line parameter: -Scans with updated comment-based help explaining its use.
- New dictionary containing information about all finding types identified by Locksmith
- Light refactoring results in a much quicker startup time.
- Added support for Editor Config so all developers are using similar VS Code setups.

@paulsanders Synology Directory Server. 🤣

@sternecker I liked Toot!, but now use Elk in Safari. (https://elk.zone)

@Sempf This one is a big deal. It’s the first release where I wrote exactly zero lines of code.

@Sempf Me too, man. But I got a TON done. New Locksmith release on deck for this weekend!

@Sempf We didn’t broadcast today! Holidayyyyyyy

The Locksmith team having a laugh at my expense. ❤️

@krupo I added an image into a comment today just to see what happens to the next person that opens it. 😈

@krupo How did it break this time?

@jerry Thanks, Jerry! I love what you’ve done and keep doing!
