      Lamenting not having some simple like uptime in Windows.

      Yeah, it is the most annoying thing. I gotta do

      systeminfo | more
      

      Yeah. Systeminfo is what I usually use, but it would be nice to just see the uptime :D.

      This should be slightly better for you...

      systeminfo | find "Boot Time"

        Of course, PS is so dog slow, I can setup an SSH session, use uptime on a Linux box, and disconnect faster than a Windows Server can return the systeminfo command locally, LMAO.

          Yeah, because it loads all the updates and other bunch of information that is not as important.

                  I was going to make the joke :: He's Alive ::

                  but decided against it.

                  fun stuff though, new office?

                    Fun for those who didn't have to move, setup or plan for any of it, certainly. For me, it was just a lot of overtime.

                          No keep changing my mind on what to use for the prices 😄
                          But the Dell X1052P look nice at the moment.

                          Quite Expensive though.

                          For what it is, that looks very reasonable to me. 48 1gb ports, 369W PoE, and 4 10gb SFP+ ports. But now I'm curious, do you have a favorite?

                          I'm seeing a lot of HP and Cisco gear around, and most of you know my opinion on Cisco already.

                          We're pretty much 100% on HP. Lifetime warranty is great.

                            You still have to watch those warranties. A lot of the old 3com gear that they rebranded is still only 5 years. However, most HP gear is 10 or 15 year "lifetime", so still a better warranty that most companies.

                                Unless there's a bleeding-edge version of Powershell out now that has that cmdlet, it doesn't seem to be native for 5.1.

                                I know there's a module out there that does what your picture shows, but it would be nice if that was just baked-in.

                                    That's promising then. Maybe in 5 years we'll have version 6 on everything where I work 😄 . It is telling that it took 6 versions to get that functionality.

                                        This is one of my two major complaints with PowerShell. Modules that you just aren't told you need to load in so many guides, which Microsoft officially published many. They are working on a feature to automatically load a needed module on demand, like any decent management tool should.

                                        My other complaint is output. I never quite know if a given output is going to be text, csv, or some other formatting. From a long-time UNIX user, this is frustrating. I know I just need to tell it to be sure, but that's just slowing me down.

                                            This is one of my two major complaints with PowerShell. Modules that you just aren't told you need to load in so many guides, which Microsoft officially published many. They are working on a feature to automatically load a needed module on demand, like any decent management tool should.

                                            Don't forget ones that break. We have scripts that have worked for years, but you update Windows and suddenly they don't run any longer.
