I dunno, I found it easier to move my family to JF.

I made them a bunch of accounts and sent them via signal.

For my mum I logged in as her and configured everything how she would want.

I didnt have to explain to anybody that remote stream needs to be unlimited bandwidth for better performance.

If mum forgets her password I can reset it.

To log her TV in we used quick connect where I had her enter the 6 digit code on the tv.

We used SyncPlay to watch a movie together.

Its kinda useful for devices where userland is also protected against exfil, like a kiosk or windows lock screen.

If the bios is hardened, secure boot on, bitlocker on, and windows is locked with a password, you can't simply take the disk out and manipulate it cause bitlocker with TPM means only that specific hardware profile will decrypt the disk automatically.

You can't get to explorer cause the system is locked with windows auth, and you can't reset the PW cause bitlocker is on, and you cant remove the disk cause the TPM protects against that with bitlocker.

Its really not perfect, and I'm not advocating for it, but its a decent protection in systems where adding another pin/password isn't practical.

Even Microsoft recommends at least also using a pin with bitlocker.

Thankfully editing logs isn't really a valid use case

And if you have lots of windows machines at home, running enterprise for whatever reason, dont look up vlmcsd and definitely dont look up the kms srv records to put on your home domain

Youre talking about Linux containers on Windows, I think commenter above was referring to windows containers on Windows, which is its own special hell for lucky folks like me.

Otherwise I totally agree. Ive done both setups without docker desktop.

Windows container runtime is free as well, simply install the docker runtime from chocolatey or winget along with the Windows Containers and Hyper-V windows features. This is what we do on some build machines for CI.

Theres no reason to use desktop other than "ease of use"

It tends to break when you force power off the machine in my experience, where ext4 is super resilient to that kind of stuff.

Thats my experience at least.

Funny packets make things behave funny sometimes. Sometimes you just need to see how something behaves when you send it illegal packets that the real software would never send.

It also makes it possible to cheat in some games by lying to the game server about interactions in game.

Essentially hackers need a way to talk to machines at every level of every protocol and Scapy is a pretty standard way of achieving that.
