Fun with Google

Found via the Gift Grub Podcast on Today FM. Kudos to "Jay".

I don't know which is funnier - the "Did you mean" suggested hit or the first hit underneath... it was a sea of colour all right, just not blue.

ADK version not updating in SCCM

-
 I recently updated the ADK on my SCCM server to current, but the ADK version in SCCM (Boot Images, Upgrade Distribution Points) remained stubbornly at 10.0.19041 and I could not access the Drivers tab on my boot image (which is what happens when your image and your reported ADK don't match).

What did work in the end was running Start, Microsoft Deployment Toolkit, Configure ConfigMgr Integration and take the default (for me) option to remove the MDT extensions (console extensions only).

What might Joe Cordiano's appointment mean for Toronto transit?

Joe Cordiano, Liberal MPP for the York South-Weston riding has replaced Greg Sorbara as political minister for Greater Toronto. With the upcoming Liberal budget and leaks of funding for the Spadina line, the appointment of a nearby MPP may be significant - it is also interesting that Cordiano's constituency also includes Weston through which the intended Blue 22 service to Toronto Pearson may run. Personally I would have preferred to see GO Transit given that route, with a stop at Bloor to access the subway rather than non-stop to Union.
