It is a Microsoft app. It needs the following permissions:
Your home or work networks–the app can communicate with other PCs on the same network
Certificates stored on your PC or a smart card to securely access organizations such as banks, government agencies, or your employer
Your microphone, including recording audio
Your Internet connection
According to my interpretation of the description, you can access computers on a local network or across networks.
Here is the store link for the app.[^]

Always happy to help. Gotta convince people to drink the Crystal Light with me (Apple users are the Kool-Aid drinkers, of course).

The good news is that the apple marketing team isn't creative enough to tell you that it's time you came up for air.

Why would I want to do that? Between Windows 8 Pro on my Vista-era laptop, Windows RT on my Surface, and Windows Phone 8 on my Nokia Lumia 920, I'm in heaven!

Hi All,
I'm sick of NuGet micro-managing my references and shafting me in the process. Why are people releasing stable NuGet packages that reference pre-release versions of things?
I've used McvMailer in my current project which has a reference to T4Scaffolding stuff that in turn reference EF6 PRERELEASE ... whereas all our production code references EF5 ...
I know have a broken solution that compiles but wont run ...
A few other devs I've spoken to are equally fed up with NuGet and the mess it can make in the background. I really don't see the benefits, it just wastes time imho and If I want to carry on using MvcMailer it appears that I have to upgrade everything to a pre-release version of EF ...
Am I Massively missing something here or is NuGet just a total pain in the ass?

NuGet is useful, but the package authors that do things like that detract from the usefulness of the system. It isn't NuGet's fault, but the [REDACTED] package author's fault!
A general message to ALL NuGet package authors: IF YOU RELEASE A STABLE PACKAGE, DON'T REFERENCE ANY PRE-RELEASE PACKAGES, USE THE STABLE PACKAGES!!!

And its a package by Scott Hanselman!!!!
Also, trying to upgrade everything to us EF6 ... I get another error removing the T4Scaffolding telling me I cant remove EF5 as the T4Scaffolding has a dependency on it ...
I mean ... ffs this is a wasted afternoon in the offing ...
Microsoft solved this circular referencing issues a LONG time ago, NuGet has brought it back.
THANKS!

Ouch. I feel your pain. I don't use NuGet all that often, most of the time I either download the source and compile it or download the binaries. I actually created a NuGet package downloader to assist with that. I will post a link if you want to see it.

If the problem is a package from Scott Hanselmann, may I suggest you contact him: [^]
Or, perhaps, leave a contact on his January 10, 2013 blog article about using NuGet to do some exotic thing with Google Spreadsheets: [^]
He's responded to me, personally, before.
good luck, Bill
“Thus on many occasions man divides himself into two persons, one who tries to fool the other, while a third, who in fact is the same as the other two, is filled with wonder at this confusion. Thinking becomes dramatic, and acts out the most complicated plots within itself, and, spectator, again, and again, becomes: actor.” From a book by the Danish writer, Paul Moller, which was a favorite of Niels Bohr.

This morning I dropped my daughter off at school in bright sunshine, 5 minutes later I noticed a flake or two of snow drifting down, then it really started going down, but the sky was clear in front of me. In the near distance (if you see what I mean) it looked like a swarm of insects with the snow silhouetted and blowing about all over the place against the bright blue sky. Continued to drive to work in practically a blizzard then 5 minutes before I got there it slowed, stopped, and I arrived in bright sunshine again.

I was in a departmental meeting today where there was a discussion of our company newsletter. One worker raised his hand and said he couldn't access our site. I'm thankful that the first I heard of the problem was in a meeting full of upper management - you know, instead of sending me a discrete email the first time the problem occurred.
I'm always working very hard to sabatoge my career.
Thankfully, I've many team members willing to make substantial contributions to the cause.
The odd part about all of this is that the person is question isn't supposed to have access to the newsletter because it is IP restricted. The newsletter contains confidential information - and I suspect he's been told this on more than one occassion. It really is the kind of thing that gets me to dreaming about a confrontation in the parking lot with a tire iron.

I was expecting you to end on a 'go die in a fire'.

I like to mix things up a little bit.
Sometimes it's a beating with a tire iron, other times a beating with a pillow case full of old door knobs, and other times it's the die in a fire thing.

The porcelain ones? I imagine those would work the best.

See?
This is the sort of comment I want.
It adds to the discussion!

I actually have a sack of old porcelain door knobs in my garage; it's what comes from owning a 140-year-old house.
I now have a use for them, the next time my neighbors throw a drunken party and don't invite me.

That was the perfect opportunity to thank him for testing the security of the site and verifying that it was working properly because he was not deemed to be worthy of accessing the site. Remind him that repeated attempts to access the site could be viewed as an attempt to hack the site.
