Steve,
I stumbled across Security Now! when it was in single-digits, went back and heard the previous episodes, and haven't missed one since. For quite a while I 'collected' every episode but now I know that I will never go back to listen to these more recent ones.
Back then I could understand everything you said, now much of it is above my pay-grade. But I get enough out of it to be worth listening to.
Attached is a potential picture-of-the-week for you. Only viewable in all its glory on a full-sized screen. Look at all those vintage screens. The top half is better than the bottom.
I have just finished running SpinRite on an old laptop that won't boot any more, but will load live disks no trouble. Then just after that I read on your FAQ page that SpinRite won't work with Ventoy. But that is what I have just done: that SpinRite is there on my Ventoy USB. It is right now processing a USB hard drive that I plugged into that laptop.
I recently came across the suggestion for those who want to stay with Win10: let Microsoft give you a bare-bones Win11 and move your present Win10 lock-stock-and-barrel into a virtual machine running in that Win11. Will that give protection from all the bad stuff that Win10 is no longer patched for?
You have provoked a little mirth at the expense of the word 'penultimate' meaning 'second to last'. Did you know there is an 'antepenultimate' meaning the one before that?
I have just finished Peter F. Hamilton's "Hole in the Sky". And waiting for the next book – on order now.
