I'm assuming this is related: I can't do any development using Visual Studio 2019 at the moment because it calls home to verify the license and it is currently unable to log me in to to verify my license. So VS is basically bricked for me until this gets fixed :-( Screenshot: https://rog.gy/ss/3b14f7a2ac.png

Woah that must be suck! Online license validation can backfire like drm did: you cannot use offline feature without online service available.

Earlier quoted context omitted.

Doesn't work for me, I get: At line:1 char:16 + $loop = "loop" do {$response = $null; Start-Sleep -Seconds 5 try {$re ... + ~~ Unexpected token 'do' in expression or statement. + CategoryInfo : ParserError: (:) [], ParentContainsErrorRecordException + FullyQualifiedErrorId : UnexpectedToken

Cleaned-up version while ($true) { $response = $null; try { $response = Invoke-WebRequest " https://login.microsoftonline.com/common/oauth2/ " -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue | select status*; if ($response) { "OK $($response.StatusCode) $(Get-Date)" | Write-Host; } } catch { "Down $(Get-Date)" | Write-Host; }; Start-Sleep -Seconds 5; }

Thank you, that works.

Sorry about that - I have no idea how to format comments. I placed a copy here: https://www.codepile.net/pile/gz77EXzd

This version works for me, thank you :-)

Ahh, thank you. I simply dabble in PS on the side and write util-like scripts as a brain stretch. This is the first time I've ever had someone look at and 'clean' anything... much appreciated.

#HugOps to the SRE's rolling back changes. I can’t reliably access anything right now so I’ll just use this as an excuse to take a brief walk.

"Current status: Rolling back the previously described change did not resolve the incident as expected. We're evaluating additional options to remediate the problem."

I like how this isn't Critical (yet)

Its only a matter of time before there are no more 'existing sessions'. I also like how they call it 'non-regional' and not say 'global'.
