Next task, getting my new desktop built and ready to go. I have no idea what hardware it even has. Oh, and have to set up my office phone.
You have a office phone . . . and a "proper" office?
I have a full office, fully dedicated one. And a proper Yealink office phone.

Yeah, for now. This SAM-SD thing is going to keep us busy. And the wife's new web design business.

Do you use Micro-SD? Hell no, it's bigger than macro SD... it's SAM-SD!

Now setting up the wife's desk phone, too. She has less of an office for now, but still a pretty serious setup.

New ad-hoc project: Learn how to create scheduled tasks in Powershell.
- Write and debug your script. Make sure there is nothing wrong with it.
- Store it in a place that it is easy for you to get to, such as C:\scripts\powershell.ps1
- Go to Task Scheduler and schedule your task
- Go to a folder, such as Task Scheduler Library -> Microsoft -> Windows.
- Right-click and select "Create New Task".
- Go to the "Actions" tab and select "New..."
- "Program/script:" = "powershell.exe"
- "Add arguments (optional):" = the path to your script.
- OK
- Setup your triggers -> OK.
- Profit!

Heh. This is in response to me discovering that the various tasks in question exist solely within the Task Scheduler GUI. So if the server blew up, they're gone (despite a script exists to configure a new server, except the tasks). My goal is to the tasks to the build script.
