Security through Obscurity isn't a good methodology to adopt.
It's kind of like my logic in the very early 00s, thinking that if my
primary Windows partition were "D:/" instead of "C:/", I'd be safer.
If you're concerned about a malicious script, then just don't ever run
things without first read
Why?
What's the end goal? What are you trying to achieve?

I think I lost the thread of this discussion somewhere along the way. What
is your desired outcome with this, Michael?
Regardless of the journey, what are you hoping to achieve in the end?

Unsure, but I bought into the "Google Apps" stack way back in 2010, so I
resigned the fact that Google owns me anyway. Never been terribly concerned
with "being tracked" as I take all the "IT Admin Common Sense" step to keep
myself safe online.

Regarding being logged in ...
I subscribe to the paid "Teams" version. It gets us all the newest
features, and also includes the "memory". I tell it to "remember" or
"update your memory" for XYZ thing, and it does. Like it will only tell me
things compatible in Python 3.10 or newer, or that I pref
I'm very glad you've found success with it. A word of caution ... As
someone who also leans on A.I. for help with technology, don't just blindly
assume it knows what it's doing.
I'm trying to learn Python better and I'll ask ChatGPT how to do things and
sometimes it'll just invent a thing to do in
I had shared a post about VMWare Workstation Pro is now free. The paid
alternative to VirtualBox.

I have a VM running with QEMU on Debian, v is a TrueNAS. Although they give
you a GUI to select options, it is my understanding that it's just pure
QEMU running on the backend.
In this VM, I have vCPUs configured.

I feel attacked and abandoned.
Didn't we just fight the war of Loyalties? I thought Michael won, but I
could be wrong.

My most favorite A.I. helper is commit messages in VS Code. Powered by
GitHub Copilot. I'm probably the worst offender of "Updates" being a commit
message ... It's terrible, I know, and I'm sorry, LOL. Now, I just click a
button and it succinctly captures what changed. I love it.

launch the Windows 11 ISO gracefully, so I had to stop using it for that

I find it somewhat foolish that you paid money for it. It's a free
I have different vLANs configured in my home network, carving out network
space for things like IoT and work devices. My wife will consistently use
her work laptop as her personal, so after an argument, the passive

down.

Do you have time to talk about our Lord and Savior, the ZFS filesystem, and
