Built a new thing to make installing & updating .NET on Windows easier after realizing I had *four* SDK installs to update on patch Tuesday: dotnet-steward.damianedwards.dev Install-PSResource DotNetSteward -Scope CurrentUser -TrustRepository non-Windows just use aka.ms/dotnetup

New drives installed in the UNAS Pro. Had to delete the existing storage pool as it was created before UniFi Drive introduced its improved protection features. Always nervous relying on backups but it's restoring now 🤞

am I doing something wrong? I've ripped the tracks, named them so that it's clear what TV series & season they are, plus a unique suffix (t01, etc.), tried TheMovieDB & TheTVDB, but get always get results like this.

Another Christmas, another TV blu-ray box set to rip and process. Might need to break out the whisper-powered episode matcher again.

It was very nice! The carry over cook was even more than I anticipated though, coulda pulled it 10-15° earlier. Merry Christmas all!

First LEGO build of the holidays complete. This thing is so cool. Might have to get another one plus one of those kits to make it a playable GB emulator.

Have spent all day on trying to figure out why CI fails a new test I added (as part of a fix) on mac & Linux that passes on Windows. Turns out, `Uri.TryCreate` is platform-sensitive 😖 Also, piping C# to `dotnet run -` via stdin is awesome.

I am genuinely SUPER EXCITED to announce that support for C# file-based apps (aka FBAs, new in #dotnet 10) is now enabled in the C#/C# Dev Kit extensions for @vscode.dev *by default*! We're going to continue refining & improving this experience over the coming months so update today!

I saw baby lions today. They are adorable 😍

Three lion cubs on the ground close to each other, two are rolling on their backs playing with each other, the third is looking back. The cage wire is in the foreground.

How many of you have ticked this box when creating new .NET 10 Blazor Web Apps in @visualstudio.com 2026? Or manually configured a *.dev.localhost URL in their launch profile when updating an existing app to .NET 10?

On the left: Framework Desktop, AMD Ryzen AI Max+ 395, 128GB RAM The right: custom built Mini ITX 9950X3D, 128GB RAM Roughly the same price (USD$2K) Kinda amazing the size difference. Can't wait to test the build performance of the 9950X3D esp. w/ the crazy 4x PCIe Gen5 NVMe SSDs.

How does 56 *GB* /sec sound 😁 More interested in the random IOPS which I won't know until I get it going, but this should be fun.
