Got to laugh at the way @Google Gemini starts its replies with "Just a sec" and then proceeds to take 10+ seconds to answer even the simplest of questions whereas Gr0k is almost instant. As I used to tell my support staff, use the term "moment" as it is deliciously unspecific 😂

That script went well 😂 Same crash/failure from powershell.exe and pwsh.exe but strangely enough sending ctrl c to ffmpeg, so it exits cleanly, works ok from ISE although ISE exits. Switching to C++

This kind of thing doesn't help our country when we claim to have free (non hate) speech although justice and common sense thankfully finally prevailed. 6 police officers - is this the very definition of "heavy handed" ? Embarrassing!! https://t.co/p13IQEJ42L

Process auditing FTW! Note that exit code -1073741510 is not a crash in that it is a ctrl c like exit via interruption and how the child processes of terminal are terminated because their parent has died (exit codes via Microsoft Error Code tool) https://t.co/RqBtJNQaWb

When will I learn not to trust Windows Terminal to host critical processes? It's too fancy for its own good & therefore flaky. Was running a robocopy to recover some data but when I came back to it the Terminal instance & the 3 pwsh instances in it had vanished. Process auditing

Had a call with a vendor today and it transpires that the guy and me both went to the same senior school in Birmingham (@HandsworthGS ) although I left, age 18, before he was born 😃

PS if you want to have data across multiple days and it's a high volume event/log, make sure the event log is big enough.

I'm seeing some corruption on a local Windows Server 2025 NTFS volume in @googlecloud , first surfaced by a PowerShell script operating on files & confirmed by procmon but there appear to be no corresponding windows events written which is surprising/annoying to me
