I think I've got a plan for tomorrow... Disney's Magic Kingdom is open until 11p, and I've never ridden the new Tron ride

I can get over there for about 5p, and go a little nuts in TomorrowLand for a bit with all the Tron and future things

It might just work...

I’m getting ready to teach a full-day workshop about @aspire.dev tomorrow in Orlando at #DevIntersection

It’s gonna be a blast showing how you can level up your existing applications

Packing for a trip is something I always do the hours before I depart…

I don’t understand how some folks can pack a few days ahead of time

Jeff Fritz @csharpfritz.com · 8d

Yep.. ran an update and tried to rollback

No dice

Started shutting off features and nothing worked

It sure feels like Windows Update clobbered my machine

Now I’m trying to find drivers

Jeff Fritz @csharpfritz.com · 8d

I tried that.. and the explorer process started, then closed a second or two later

Jeff Fritz @csharpfritz.com · 8d

Fortunately, all of my personal files are either on OneDrive or GitHub

I still am going to need to install Visual Studio, VS Code, Docker, Git, Office…

It’s gonna be a long day rebuilding this

Jeff Fritz @csharpfritz.com · 8d

Looks like there’s some bad corruption around the XAML libraries that support the taskbar and start menu

I’ve tried doing a windows repair and that didn’t work

I am forced to pave and rebuild this machine

Ugh

Jeff Fritz @csharpfritz.com · 8d

I’ve been working on my demo laptop for the last day, fighting a very strange error:

When I login to Windows 11 there’s no desktop shown. I can get into task manager and run apps, but when I launch explorer it crashes immediately

I’ve tried all kinds of repairs, and now it looks like rebuild time

Thus the pathway to the secret socket is clear… and a 6-3 decision with no commentary from the conservative block, with 3 dissenting commentaries

This is exactly what he wanted. He’s bought a year of violating the constitution

The GOP is upset that non-citizens could get Obamacare benefits… as they pay $20b to Argentina to subsidize their National healthcare system… and they continue to fund the Israeli healthcare system

BTW: abortion is legal and free, subsidized by the US in both countries

.. but not for Americans

I have a few ideas and little one-off apps that I’ve been building with C# and copilot that have been a lot of fun…

And I want to get the first one launched in October
