• New IT dude needs help/guidance from some more experienced wizards here.

  Microsoft has BGinfo @ https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/downloads/bginfo that is free and can be pushed to machines to display relevant data like machine name and IP right on the desktop and its highly visible to end users. Source: over 1 year ago

• Create a toolbar with powershell?

  But, I recommend taking a look at bginfo. A lot of places just use this to constantly display the system's info on the Desktop. It seems like a campy solution, but it's a popular campy solution that no one questions. Source: over 1 year ago

• Calendar advice for home + work?

  I use an app called Fantastical (https://flexibits.com/fantastical). I believe it is macOS/iOS only, but there might be alternatives with work with other systems.

Lots of config options and nice features and timely notifications. Source: about 1 year ago

• Whats your favourite app that can work as a calendar and also effectively time-block out tasks?

  By 2022, I was hot and heavy on Todoist. It seemed like a great solution and had a ton of integrations, but it lacked in a few areas. There was no calendar view in the app. That’s not so bad, since I do most of the scheduling in Google Calendar. But it is a little tough when try to add to-dos and see where they fit into your schedule (time blocking). Also, Todoist has this whole “thing” about being minimalist, but... Source: over 1 year ago
