Gov. Cox is a complete hypocrite.

He vetoed a bill that banned trans kids from participating in sports of their identified gender saying he errs on the side of compassion (https://www.sltrib.com/news/politics/2022/03/22/gov-spencer-coxs/), but more recently signed a bill banning transitioning care for trans kids (https://www.nytimes.com/2023/01/29/us/utah-transgender-bill.html).

Cox you and those who voted for these bills are not just an embarrassment to the state but actively supporting this type of mindset and behavior with this legislation!

This means I no longer have to use my workaround command that loads a new terminal window with admin privileges!

Now, I might not completely loathe using Windows at work.

One good thing that came from this post is I learned about Jshelter and have decided to give it a go.

I completely overlooked the PSU and didn't even realize they were using a M.2 Hatdrive which makes the price tag line up with the states $126.

As you stated it wasn't in the article just the video which I didn't watch so the misunderstanding is on me.

The Pi 5 costs around $126, not including the SSD or case...

The Pi 5 8GB is $80. Where is the extra $46 if they aren't including the case and SSD? Taxes at 20%, which is generous, would only increase the cost by $17 if they are including the $5 fan. That means shipping would be around $24, which seems a bit high.

OP is poking fun at the typo in the title. It's says "...reserve trend" not "reverse trend".

You should have posted the Politco article instead of the Newsweek. You are even citing the Politico article! The Newsweek article is hot garbage.

Let's give some credit and praise to Codeweavers, the main contributors to WINE, who Valve worked with on Proton.

I have seen Admins assign new mods to dead communities with inactive mods. You may need to @ an Admin and explain why you should be a mod of the community in question.

If you keep Bitlocker enabled on that partition you will have to enter the recovery key everytime you boot into your Linux partition. Since you don't have that key backed up you'll need to turn it off and then re-enable it if you wish to continue to use Bitlocker.

If you manually enable bitlocker you will be prompted to back up the key with a few different options: to a file (but if I recall you'll need to save the file to a drive that isn't be encrypted by Bitlocker) or to a Microsoft account.

To answer your question regarding best practice, Full Disk Encryption is best practice. Now to achieve that in Windows you use Bitlocker, Linux there is Luks, and macOS has filevault.

If your machine isn't going anywhere outside your home then it's not as big of a deal if the drive isn't encrypted.

Regarding your situation FDE is going to be a bit of a pain whether you use Bitlocker or Luks. I suggest using db2's suggestion and run a VM creating a shared folder between host and guest. Then you can encrypt the entire drive using the best encryption tool for the host OS (which I suggest be Linux).

Edit: Replaced the 'b' with a space between "db2's" and "suggestion"

If you don't need/want Bitlocker simply boot into Windows go into the bitlocker settings and turn off bitlocker (dont use suspend as bitlocker will be re-enabled the next time you boot into Windows). You will need to wait for Bitlocker to decrypt before shutting down - there will be a small status window that appears showing the progress and it shouldn't take too long.
