Today I will talk about the restricted mode of youtube. It help to prevent unwanted video ! but it's not bulletproof as a parental's control, but it can help to filter the unwanted videos.

The tip is to load a profile inside Chrome and allow that profile to load in the youtube web site.

While naviguating on youtube, in the profile section, it's a simple option there and I suggest to use the option to Lock the setting. That way o desactivate it will ask for the account password.

The setting, when on, allow youtube to adjust, the search result and suggested video will not display video deemed for an older audience. Lke talked it's not bulletproof, but as it's integrated inside the naviguator, it can be easy to set at on.

Hi everyone

I tried to find a small COPPA network to get some minimum revenues to keep the site running, and to my surprise when you are COPPA it's a lot harder than I though.

On my tech blog adsense was up and running in less than two weeks. Now I'am in a 2 months periods and I still lookup.

I got adsterra added for the blog section, but as it's not 100% COPPA friendly I didn't add it for the videos sections.

To list some research done if it can help others. I put in bold the network that clearly state COPPA, the other I can't know unless I log into the dashboard to see.

Hi everyone

If in a shared mailbox you need to keep the sent items in the mailbox and not just in the main account that sent the mail item, you have to make a small change via powershell. You can do the chnage in the local Outlook too, but I suggest in powershell as it will follow anyone that send from that mailbox.

There is the step;

Install-Module ExchangeOnlineManagement

Connect-ExchangeOnline -UserPrincipalName admin@account.onmicrosoft.com

Get-Mailbox

Set-Mailbox <mailbox name> -MessageCopyForSentAsEnabled $True

Set-Mailbox <mailbox name> -MessageCopyForSendOnBehalfEnabled $True

After the command we can validate the mailbox to be sure it's set, or not;

Get-Mailbox <mailbox-name> | fl

That should do the tip to have the sent items saved inside the shared mailbox sent item's folder !

Download the ISO

Download the VHD

To quote the article for the main change;

Some key improvements include:

  • **Hybrid**: Adapt quickly across hybrid, cloud and edge. Easier to connect to Azure Arc to bridge on-premises and cloud-based servers. Deliver Azure capabilities to your on-premises servers.
  • **Security**: Hardware and software-level security to deter cyberattacks; next-generation Active Directory that improves security and scalability. Enable a tailored security baseline and  configure drift protection from the start.
  • **Modern, future-ready platform**: Windows Server 2025 is now easier to upgrade and scale, with better-than-ever app compatibility. Windows Server 2025 desktop brings consistent client and server UI experience, plus conveniences like WiFi and Bluetooth.
  • **Performance**: Faster and easier networking and storage; live hotpatching for reduced downtime; GPU partitioning for inferencing at the edge. Improvements in flash-based storage make Windows Server an even better platform for SQL Server.
