It is a VM so fully sandboxed. All the sharing is smoke and mirrors (often in pretty cool ways).
Truth is that security is not OP’s problem. Someone else (likely well above their pay grade) is shouldering that responsibility and they have decreed Windows for everyone.
Not only a skill issue, but also a time issue. Our security team is plenty of skill and COULD learn how to manage Linux, but they do not have the time to do so. Everything has to be prioritised and they choose to support Win and Mac and move on to something else.
Honestly WSL2 is pretty good now. I have Fedora running in it and use basically the same config files as my personal laptop. Neovim behaves exactly the same across both. The only problem I have is that CTRL+V get intercepted by the terminal before it get to vim. That means that block visual mode is not available to me.
That and multiple desktops feels REALLY clunky, even compare to Gnome.
WSL is reasonable bearable, you can install Fedora instead of the default Ubuntu/Debian too. My work PC started out on 10 and is now on 11. I think I changed the terminal program, but the one I use may be the default in Win11. Honestly, I think the only programs I run outside WSL are a browser, DaVinci Resolve and Reaper (replaced Kdenlive and Ardour, both of which I prefer).
I am able to use the same neovim config on both my home (fedora) and work laptops, which is pretty handy.
At the end of the day it is their computer, not yours.
2 problems this week
Accidentally had 2 Jellyfin pods trying to write to SQLite together and corrupted the DB. Not really anyway to fix it so just killed it and rebuilt the library.
Also, my son’s Minecraft server got corrupted. Longhorn backup to the rescue 🛟
We have both.
Kodi use Jellyfin for its media library and Kodi is excellent for a lot of the TV we watch. catch Up TV has replaced the decoder for watching terrestrial TV.
One thing that sucks in Kodi though is Arte (a franco-german channel that is a leans towards “intellectual”). For that, the LG WebOS app is much better than the Kodi add-on. Other than that 1 app, we could happily plug Kodi into digital signage panel if they weren’t stupidly expensive.
I cannot fathom why, but people do not seem capable of understanding resolution, screen size and viewing distance as important factors that interplay with each other.
8k is absolutely pointless on a 49" TV that is several metres away. However, I will take 4k over 1080 on even a 24" computer screen every time.
That is just me though, your preferences and vision may be different to mine. Same with the monitors. You like multiple screens, I prefer a single larger screen.
My company announced RTO the same day Amazon did. The Union is up in arms, but honestly the powers that be are handling it pretty well. My boss is happily going to the office for a couple of days a week. She’s a million miles from enforcing it on us though. Exceptions are already in place for people like me (3 hour TGV ride from the nearest office) and even a few people who just said “I really don’t want to”.
I’m sure a few people will leave and not be replaced, but perhaps they were just dead weight anyway. I couple that I know about definitely are.
None in Brittany either! This is a bad sign
I just have them speak my name. Lived in France for 12 years now and not 1 has got it right.
I know, but my point is that sort of parent has no desire to do so.
Is the sort of parent who gives a 5 year old their own phone going really going to a limit the use? I think the crossover in that Venn diagram is pretty small.
The problem is that the french workers going on strike has basically become a meme. Look at Canteloup’s Monsieur Regis character. SNCF go on strike for fun and no one really knows why.
The last major strikes were because of the retirement age raising to 62. The rest of the world looked on and thought “I’d love to retire at the age you are all complaining about”. Hell, I don’t even WANT to retire at 62! What will I do with myself?
Fun fact:
I went to a private school where some of the teachers were freemen of the city of London. Apparently, they could request that tower bridge be raised. None of them ever tried, but I believe it is some weird legacy law. They also had the right to drive their sheep across London Bridge, but that one has burnt down, burnt down, burnt down.
Had project manager at previous job the same. Worked about 3" from his screen. He was the proof that a good project manager is worth their weight in gold though. Guy was absolutely brilliant.
What you have just described could be ZigBee and/or MQTT.
It’s a Parks & Rec reference:

It should be an option for those outside the top 1%. Let’s be honest, plenty of jobs suck and a lot of people who look after a children professionally are not the brightest sparks in the fire (at least where I am). Why should someone be forced to do a crap job then give all that salary to someone less cultures than the to look after their kids. Why not just do it themselves?
If one of you has a good, full-time job that should cover basic living expenses. It should also not be looked down. My wife is a stay at home mum, she is also a feminist and I certainly did not not force her to to work. The only thing we regret is the way people (especially other women but not only) look down on her.
My girl will very gently scratch our legs to tell us she is hungry. She gets just right amount of claw so that it really hurts, but leaves no trace.
