Resolving Personal MSA / Work M365 Email Address Collision

Problem

A user has a personal Microsoft account (MSA) using their work email address (e.g., userid@example.com), which conflicts with the organization's M365 tenant where example.com is a verified domain. This causes "Work or school account?" prompts and prevents using the work email as the M365 sign-in.

Prerequisites

User has an alternate email address they control (e.g., Gmail, Yahoo)
Admin access to M365 tenant

Reflashing the MCIMX8M-EVKB with Android

We bought a couple of MCIMX8M-EVKB, and one came in bricked. It's a bit complicated to reflash them; here are the instructions all in one place.

These are instructions for Windows.

Download the appropriate version of uuu from GitHub
Download the image for 12.0.0_1.0.0_DEMO_8MQ:
- browse to the eval kit download page

Scroll down to software and click "show all":

NXP MCIMX8M-EVKB boot switch settings

I couldn't find a concise summary, so I looked at the schematics (page 11 of SPF-3880_A2.pdf).

SW802 is the main mode switch, two position.
SW801 is the secondary switched, used if "internal boot (development) is selected.

SW802

SW1 is BOOTMODE_1, and SW2 is BOOTMODE_0. The board ships with SW1=1 and SW2=0.

Yeti mic on Surface Pro 7+

Do you have a Yeti (or other) USB microphone that worked perfectly on your previous Windows 10 system, but doesn't work on a your new system? This tip might help.

Here are the symptoms:

The Yeti doesn't appear in any of the audio input selection menus.
The Yeti doesn't appear in Windows Device Manager under "Audio inputs and outputs"
But the Yeti does appear in Windows Device Manager, under "Sound, video and game controllers"

Getting your FAR & DFARS report from sam.gov

I had occasion to get my company's FAR and DFARS reports from sam.gov recently, and the process was surprisingly obscure. I did a search, but all I found were videos on YouTube that were out of date; and I wasn't able to find a help article that explained what to do.

So here's a quick runthrough.

Log into sam.gov
The website will open your "Workspace" page. Click on the "Active" entities bubble:

Setting Up Inbound OpenSSH (sshd) access on Windows 10 and 11

The OpenSSH SSHD service on Windows 10 an 11 is extremely useful, but a bit tricky to set up. Here are my notes on how to do it.

Follow the instructions from [[1]] to "Install OpenSSH" via Windows Settings. Alternately, use PowerShell:

Add-WindowsCapability -Online -Name OpenSSH.Client
Add-WindowsCapability -Online -Name OpenSSH.Server

Desktop Extension from PC to Galaxy Tab A7

Problem statement: use a Samsung Galaxy Tab A7 with OneUI 3.1 as a seccond screen on Windows.

According to Samsung at time of writing, a "Second Screen" button comes as part of the OneUI 3.1 update (article here). However, for me (as for many people), this doesn't work on a Galaxy Tab A7, at least with OneUI 3.1.

The solution that works for me is a free application called spacedesk from DatronicSoft in Germany.

Steps to install on tablet:

	# Prep WSL
	dism.exe /online /enable-feature /featurename:Microsoft-Windows-Subsystem-Linux /all /norestart
	dism.exe /online /enable-feature /featurename:VirtualMachinePlatform /all /norestart

	### Make it mine
	# Timeout / battery prefs
	powercfg /Change monitor-timeout-ac 5
	powercfg /Change standby-timeout-ac 0
	powercfg /Change monitor-timeout-dc 5
	powercfg /Change standby-timeout-dc 30
