This will sound super-n00bish, but oh well. $args in PowerShell has changed my life. That is all. Continue with your regularly scheduled ML trolling, lurking, and posting.

One thing I hate about XCP-ng is the lack of support for UEFI...

It's been awhile but does it support other filesystems like ext4 or xfs and is it still using .vhd files?

So busy today... we have three people trying to interview today. Already had to turn one person down.

Figuring out this Printer issue with one of my sites.
Looks like it may just be a Dip switch Setting issue..
Or I need to upgrade Com Port Drivers ...
Oh edit baud Rate to be exponentially higher than it is..

Fun Stuff no?

@WrCombs you seriously still have printers with dip switches??? Yow. I have some late 80s guitar pedals that have those. Was neat on a distortion pedal, sounds like a nightmare on a printer.

Epson Tmt88 Receipt Printers and their cousin U220 s have dip switches.
Point of sale is a different beast all together.

I visit a site once a week. I must have left it on the desk there last week. Great to have it back, saves me having to look for another one.

How so?

I really only ever used it to check for extra arguments/parameters in my functions / scripts to output an error if the $args.count is higher than it should be, for example.

What are you using it for?

Hopefully you documented so you can do it again quickly and with ease!

@WrCombs Fuel dispensers are also still using RS-232. If you pull up to a fuel station, the ads playing on the screen are delivered on two wires -- kinda modem to modem. Honestly, our serial devices are very reliable, although you can lose the TV screens in fuel dispensers for all I care.
