Thank you for the info! I like your username.

There will be some additional time and resources required to read and write encrypted data, even if minor.

Previous versions of Windows only permitted drive encryption in their premium tiers, and it seems like the current one possibly requires a TPM chip for it, so a lot of hardware won’t even support it. So basically greed or greed.

For what it’s worth it’s not always a default with Linux installations either. There’s a usually minor performance hit, though I can’t say it ever bothered me. Personally I have less fear of bad actors obtaining physical access than I do myself breaking something catastrophically and losing my access, so I don’t use it now.

“CEO” and “kill” going in the same sentence is ungood.

It’s kind of crazy to think someone will read all of it too. Probably.

It sounds like you were a bad kid, but maybe you won’t necessarily be a bad adult given this introspection. Something to bear in mind is that kids’ brains and minds aren’t entirely developed, often causing that kind of bad behavior- maturity is a real thing, and it sounds like you’ve begun developing it.

I think most people have things they regret from childhood and teenage years. I suppose the key is to be self aware and try to live in line with who you want to be as an adult.

The one time I’ve ever had a lucid dream I decided to try flying. It worked out pretty well so I visited a wizard and learned to shoot fireballs. Sadly I woke up shortly afterward.

Linux may never recover

It might be easier near the coast, but opening up windows during times of day where you can catch a breeze might help with the heat the house soaks up. Insect netting on windows may make this a more tolerable option.

Beyond this, the high ceilings in older style homes seemed to make things feel cooler, but I can’t really confirm that. A lot of design aspects of older homes were meant to deal with heat, so it might not be trendy but works. I’ve seen one place with a sizeable indoor pond/pool in the middle of the ground floor, supposedly inspired by courtyard transpiration. The guy was an odd engineer… no idea about longevity but it did stay cool in that place.

Plants to cut down on sunlight while giving you something nice to look at seems good. Maybe planters for vegetables etc on a flat roof if it’s possible.
