Boot to USB drive and load documents from backup. After my shift is over, I restore or replace the bad drive.

If you want to test out Linux, try running a virtual machine instead. There are a few good free software programs to do this. VirtualBox used to be a good option. It's a free and harmless way to dive into Linux.

Linux Is Only Free if You Don’t Value Your Time

This one is my favorite.

My co-workers SSD failed, and he was out most of the day. My SSD failed, and I was back up and running in about 10 minutes.

I recommend the flatpak version. It's still a little buggy as an app, and it's missing a few features, but it'll be rad when it's done.

future firmware updates are expected to include encryption features

Just use GnuPG. SMH

This is bullshit.

Until I see an OSI approved license, it's not open source.

IDK is the average TikTok user really installing VPN software on it's phone?

Yes. From the article a, 2500% spike in VPN usage.

TikTok is not a platform for political discussion

Yet, despite that, it's working as one. Effectively.

Banning websites in the year 2024 is never going to work. The average user is more savvy than the average lawmaker.

Turns out the judge on his 2020 conviction was caught doing some questionable shit.

He's still going to be serving time for the 2022 conviction.

It's wild what can be done with some clever aliases. Linux is better now than ever before.

I work for a small company and I run Linux for work without issues. However we're small enough that we don't have an IT department. Most of our tools are web tools or are platform independent.

In contrast my girlfriend's company uses Windows over a remote connection via thin client. It's a high security job though most of her work is in Microsoft Office and SharePoint.

Setting her job up with only Linux would be a million times harder.

Might want to look at Llama.cpp.
