I carry two laptops in my work bag regularly, a 15" and 14"

Stolen identities. That's all it is.

We have a couple Apple TVs. As much as I dislike the walled garden, they are very good for what they are.

I'm reminded of a recent comic depicting a dudebro wanting to shove a spear or something into another guy's ass. Second guy contests the spearing for obvious reasons, but a third enters and plays the "we need to hear both sides" card.

Really drove the point home. Heh.

Also, I can't find that comic anywhere. I don't remember where I saw it, either.

IDK, we should ask Alanis Morisette

Ventoy is entirely unrelated to preserving user data. It's just a tool that lets you drag-and-drop multiple ISOs onto a flash drive without having to image it every time.

Ironic because Thinkpad T- and P-series laptops are some of the most robust machines you can get for a reasonable price these days.

Of course, the IBM that launched the Thinkpad line is a completely different company than the IBM that helped commit WWII atrocities... But it doesn't matter anyway because they sold the entire PC division to Lenovo 20 years ago.

Yeah, that was the implication.

No.

Find a well-supported distro (Debian, or Debian-based like Ubuntu and Linux Mint, is ideal - highly stable). Then go through your applications and look for Linux equivalents, or see if the companies behind the apps offer a version for Linux.

I've been running Linux Mint Debian Edition (not Ubuntu-based) on my laptop for almost a year now. It's now my go-to machine for pretty much anything I do outside of my gaming PC (which is also getting Linux Mint soon).

Yes, hence the "sheer dumb luck" comment.

But I understand what you're saying.

And nowhere to be found is an actual list of affected apps - only a couple examples.

Great job, NCSC 🤨👍

F-Droid is my go-to for anything possible. If I find something I can selfhost and has an app, I make sure the app can be found in F-Droid (or even just an APK shipped in the repo that can be managed with Obtainium), or else I lose interest.

Meanwhile anyone with a brain understands the Peter principle.

More like they'll fire you for not babysitting it, then hire some "techy" dudebro at half the wage to keep babysitting it until they get the prompts right (by sheer dumb luck), then fire the dudebro.

Right?

"Oh you typed in a phone number/email address in a required field? Here's some spam you never asked for that we want you to confirm so we can continue spamming you, please bro just confirm it bro, just type in the code we sent you bro"

Southwest gets roadrunners. They're fun.
