Defender for Endpoint provides a way to get telemetry and a built-in report that makes them easier to implement, but it is not required at all :)

Last month members of ILM's original crew from Star Wars: A New Hope gathered at their former studio space in Southern California. 50 years ago in 1976, they were busily preparing the world's most innovative visual effects facility to create over 300 shots for George Lucas' space fantasy. Guests at the reunion included everyone from modelmakers and production coordinators to visual effects supervisors and camera operators. Some crews remain bonded forever.

@TeslaPatriot I had to do a takeover in that exact spot a few years ago. However after an update about 6 months later I haven’t had an issue there since and I’m in a 2018 M3.

@IntuneSuppTeam @PerLarsen1975 @MSIntune It needs to add the hyperlink back for clicking on the Primary user to go to the user record. Also the copy to clipboard buttons for Display Name and Serial Number. Also I’d like the Tools and Reports page to be the default landing page or let us select which we prefer.

[Brendan Carr @BrendanCarrFCC]

Under President Biden, the FCC revoked an $885 million award that Starlink won to provide high-speed Internet to millions of Americans.

Back then, the agency claimed that it was revoking the award because it was unlikely that Starlink could provide 100/20 Mbps service to 40% of locations by year end 2025.

I dissented at the time, explaining that the FCC's decision could not be squared with any objective application of law, facts, or policy. The data clearly showed that Starlink was on track.

Now, new Ookla data shows that well over that percentage of Speedtest user on Starlink did meet the 100/20 service level by year end 2025.

The Biden era decision to revoke the award only slowed down efforts to bridge the digital divide and raised costs for doing so.
