- Welcome to episode 192 of the Microsoft Cloud IT Pro Podcast, recorded live, August 23rd, 2020. This is a show about Microsoft 365 and Azure from the perspective of IT pros and end users where we discuss a recent topic or news and how it relates to you. And this episode, Ben and Scott get back on track and start off the show talking about the new Microsoft Flight Simulator, as well as the latest DARPA AI project. And from there, we dive into Microsoft 365 and Azure news talking about the Microsoft Cloud Shell, about Internet Explorer 11, Microsoft Forms Pro, Microsoft Ignite, and other news and announcements related to Microsoft 365 and Azure.
- I don't even know how to start. I have nothing creative. It's episode 192. A month from now, we're going to be recording 200, Scott. What are we going to do for, I feel like we should do something for 200. We didn't do anything for 100. We are very poor at celebrating our accomplishments.
- What could we do? Continue to stay inside some more?
- Sure.
- We've gt that going for us.
- Two months away, two months, it's the end of some month and the year 2020. October, it'll be like Halloween, right-ish?
- So it'll only be, you know, 105, and it'll be nice and humid outside.
- Yeah, maybe we can dress up since we did start doing videos, Scott. Last week's episode, I actually published, we were recording our video, I went in and marked it up a little bit. But we actually published video of us on YouTube. So if you want the whole unedited video version of the podcast, you can go find it on YouTube now. And we'll see, hopefully I can keep doing it. I need to fix my camera though. I have a standup desk that wiggles, as you can probably see in my video.
- Yeah, well, we'll have to add not only a non-wiggly camera, but like a discord chat or something like that.
- Oh, man, this is going to get to be a lot of work.
- I know.
- So do you want my random news for the day? I have two random news articles for you. Which one do you want, one or two? This one's more interesting.
- Well, let's back up. So Flight Simulator came out. Have you played it yet.
- No, but it has a 212-story building, you know, in a city.
- It's in Melbourne, it's in Melbourne, Australia. Do you know how they got that 212-story obelisk inside the middle of the city?
- You found one of my random links and I have not read it all yet, other than somebody had a typo somewhere and they scraped the data from there and that's how it got there. But I have not had a chance to read all the details.
- So mapping is an interesting thing. You know, there's a lot of companies out there that potentially provide map data. There are certainly some that build their own. You think maybe about like Google or Apple, you know, driving cars around for their street views and things like that. But they're also collecting telemetry and road data. You've got navigation applications like,
