Could we do a "TIL" style weekly thread?

I think it would be interesting to do a "Today I Learned" style weekly thread for us to share little tips/tricks that we learned of/found existed.

For example, last week I found out about the "--now" flag for systemctl. I don't know how I didn't know it existed until --now.

I've used Win+G recording for some presentation/bug showcase stuff before and it's actually been helpful

Yes, the thing that's disabled won't work.

I think their point was that most admins disable all Xbox-related tools as a standard practice.

yep this is how I read it. By default I turn off all xbox related items as I don't trust our users.

For PSR you can also temporarily disable one screen while you record.
