PowerShell Games
I use PowerShell for many things, but did you know you can also play games in PowerShell? In this blog post, I will show you a few that are nice to play while waiting for your installation to complete or your code to compile 🙂
250.000 views!
I'm so happy that this website passed the 250.000 views mark today! 🙂 The first post was on April 21 of last year (2022), and the amount of views has been growing ever since! This blog post will tell you how and why I started the website.
Use PowerShell to change the color of your Govee lamp
I recently bought a Govee lamp for my desk, which I can control using my Google Home Assistant. But... It also has API support. 🙂 In this blog post, I will show you how to control it using PowerShell in a Function to turn it Red, Orange, or Green so you can use it for a visual outcome of your PowerShell script.
Recent podcasts I was a guest on
I listen to podcasts often, but I also view a lot on YouTube or other channels... But being in one, that's something else 🙂 In this blog post, I will post the ones I was in this year. They are all PowerShell related, but I guess you already knew that 😀
Text-To-Speech using PowerShell
Just a little fun thing for a Friday, text-to-speech! We used this many years ago at the office, sending this to the laptop of a colleague and having fun while he's trying to figure out where the voice is coming from 🙂
Create a focus time countdown clock using PowerShell
Sometimes you need to finish something, and notifications from your running programs keep taking away your focus... You can try using the script in this blog post to keep focused on your task. When the count-down timer is done, your programs will be available again. Hope this helps 🙂

Get a Message Of The Day in your PowerShell session
Sometimes you need an excellent inspirational quote to get some motivation 😉 In this blog post, I will show you how to get one each time you start a new PowerShell session.
Get a random 9GAG item in your browser using PowerShell
Brighten up your day when starting a new PowerShell session by... Getting a 9GAG item (Picture/movie clip) in your browser 🙂 I was working on parameter sets and got side-tracked into this script. Start it, and you will receive a random category 9GAG post in your browser unless it's NSFW because you wouldn't want that .. Right? 😉
