20:00:16 <jborean93> yo
20:00:22 <briantist> hello!
20:00:28 <nitzmahone> howdy briantist!
20:01:11 <nitzmahone> as usual of late, nothing new on the agenda, so
20:01:14 <nitzmahone> #topic open floor
20:01:35 <nitzmahone> Everybody got their WinGet on? ;)
20:01:45 <briantist> jborean93: I updated the PR for `win_pssession_configuration`, I think we're almost at the finish line there if you get a chance
20:01:53 <briantist> ha! I was going to bring up winget!
20:02:03 <briantist> Just heard about it today
20:02:29 <nitzmahone> Bet the chocolatey folks aren't thrilled about that :I
20:02:43 <jborean93> briantist: yep just left a comment, will do a review today and hopefully merge it in
20:02:51 <jborean93> there are some grumblings from what I can see
20:03:06 <nitzmahone> If Microsoft can actually make a go of it, I suspect that eats into a chunk of their enterprise sales
20:03:16 <briantist> oh yikes, yeah I imagine so
20:03:19 <nitzmahone> That's a big "if" though- they've tried a few times
20:03:54 <jborean93> chocolatey does have some nice business features though like package sync
20:04:13 <jborean93> so at least they can hopefully iterate and increase the feature benefits they can offer
20:04:16 <jborean93> but time will tell really
20:04:23 <nitzmahone> Yeah, they've done a great job of differentiating the free stuff and having a good reason for businesses to pay
20:04:40 <briantist> the post I saw on winget says it supports Win10, I didn't see anything about server versions 🤔
20:05:08 <nitzmahone> I
20:05:12 <briantist> I wonder if they'll get it into 2019 at least
20:05:23 <nitzmahone> I'd be amazed if they make that mistake again (*cough* Windows Store *cough*)
20:05:49 <jborean93> 2019 is based on 10 1803 I believe
20:06:09 <jborean93> so it should be possible
20:06:42 <jhawkesworth> hey
20:06:43 <jborean93> but probably an optional download
20:07:05 <briantist> hi jhawkesworth !
20:07:10 <nitzmahone> hey Jon!
20:07:41 <jhawkesworth> hey, nice to see some windows chat
20:09:57 <briantist> in on windows news I think I'm receivingmy first Ansible swag in the mail today 😅
20:10:04 <briantist> *non windows
20:10:43 <nitzmahone> What, the contrib summit swag box, or something else?
20:10:44 <jhawkesworth> awesome.
20:11:00 * jhawkesworth goes looking for my 'ansibull'
20:11:16 <briantist> yeah I think so, I filled out the form for that that was going around but didn't even realize there was swag until I got the order confirmation last week
20:16:03 <jborean93> nice
20:16:07 <jhawkesworth> oh I have a question - not specifically windows though
20:16:14 <jborean93> it's a pity I won't be getting a new Ansiblefest shirt
20:16:19 <jborean93> darn covid-19
20:17:24 <jhawkesworth> after 25 years I have finally been dumped by my mail provider so am having to change my email address everywhere.  Are bulk updates ever accepted or I am going to have to do 1 per module?
20:18:02 <jhawkesworth> question for ansible-devel I guess
20:18:51 <briantist> wow, what email provider is that? I don't know if it's "correct" but I've been using my github @ instead of email in modules
20:19:26 <jborean93> well the windows modules have been split out so feel free to put an update in the collection in bulk or at least largish batches
20:19:40 <jhawkesworth> that will probably cover most of it
20:20:15 <jhawkesworth> I think all the core things I contributed long ago have been re-written by now
20:20:16 <jhawkesworth> thanks
20:21:05 <jhawkesworth> briantist: well they were called 'demon internet' in 1994 but have been bought and sold and all sorts since then.
20:21:35 <nitzmahone> yay for owning my own domain
20:21:55 <jhawkesworth> i forget now but I think email is just intended to be backup in case non-responsive github
20:22:17 <jhawkesworth> yeah, wish I'd gone that route but didn't have the knowledge back then.
20:22:40 <jhawkesworth> anyway, nice to chat but I gots to go.  Have a good week y'all
20:22:43 <nitzmahone> Yeah, it happens... Blows my mind when I see people in 2020 still using their `@comcast.net` or whatever ISP email for ... well, anything!
20:22:49 <nitzmahone> C'ya soon!
20:23:09 <briantist> same nitzmahone !
20:23:53 <nitzmahone> I love that the company that just bought out Frontier's FIOS assets here in the PNW doesn't even offer email
20:24:05 <jhawkesworth> most stable way of reaching me of all time.  I survived the spam wars, so sad to see it go for the sake of some co not wanting to pass dns on to another co who are happy to run it.
20:24:27 <briantist> but it really sucks whenever I have to speak it out to someone in person or on the phone. `briantist.com` is very confusing for a lot of people 😞
20:24:29 <jhawkesworth> anyway.
20:24:32 <jhawkesworth> cheers
20:24:48 <nitzmahone> Yeah, that's a bummer when they let stuff drop like that
20:25:35 <nitzmahone> briantist: yeah, same for `rolpdog.com`
20:25:52 <nitzmahone> "did you say 'roll dog'?"
20:25:53 <briantist> 😂
20:26:36 <nitzmahone> Luckily I don't have to say/spell "nitzmahone" for people too often
20:30:18 <briantist> hey has anyone used the new windows terminal yet?  https://www.howtogeek.com/673729/heres-why-the-new-windows-10-terminal-is-amazing/
20:30:41 <nitzmahone> Yeah, just a bit, but it's pretty slick
20:30:57 <nitzmahone> My daily driver is Fedora 31
20:31:07 <jborean93> yea I would if I was actually still using Windows as a driver
20:31:20 <briantist> about to get it installed and try it out
20:31:24 <nitzmahone> I have an XPS 13 2-in-1 that runs Windows for personal stuff, which is where I played around with WT a bit
20:31:36 <jborean93> unfortunately my use of Windows is the server variants and terminal can't be installed on those yet
20:32:41 <briantist> ahh really? I was going to try it on 2019 👀
20:32:55 <jborean93> yea it requires a newer build of Win 10 for the conpty APIs
20:32:59 <jborean93> 2019 was a bit too old
20:33:37 <jborean93> I think 2019 is based on 1809 (maybe 1803) and terminal requires 1903
20:33:39 <briantist> ah that's ok, it'll mostly be useful locally but we do have some remote servers that are sort-of jump boxes for doing admin stuff
21:03:10 <nitzmahone> Sorry, I got sidetracked fixing a bug- I guess the meeting's over :)
21:03:13 <nitzmahone> 'til next week!
