Privacy

I bought a mouse jiggler for my work laptop. Not the dongle, no - just one that goes underneath an actual mouse; it's stupid simple.

Ever since I had an "awakening" about AI and Microsoft trying to force their "Recall" "feature" down everyone's throats (which btw was the catalyst for my wiping Windows out of my home entirely - I now run Linux exclusively), I've been extremely wary of doing anything not 100% work-related on my work laptop. My boss doesn't care as long as our tasks get done, but I don't trust the upper management with that kind of power.

And for what it's worth, since I know someone will try to call it out: I only use it while I'm at my desk, and I'm very much in the habit of locking things before walking away. Mainly because I don't like having to poke the trackpad every 10 minutes just to keep an eye out for messages while playing a game or surfing on my personal device (which is almost never connected to the guest network).
