Valid point. The other issue is that for those of us with really long names, there's never enough space for it to fit.

Was about to say something like this. Though I was going to phrase it as "Nuke CoPilot and all AI 'features', and just leave a virtual radioactive crater in my system".

Yeah, I noticed this when I went back to school at age 60. Everyone else in the class was using their laptops. I had brought mine, but it wasn't worth it. I needed to have the info go through my brain to my arm and hand to help me retain the info.

Yo dawg, I heard you like dupes, so I duped your dupe, and put it in the dupe.

Yeah, but this subthread was about getting rid of any Chinese spy/malware by installing OpenWRT on your TP-Link.

Not just computer stuff...

I share LA Kings season tickets with my sister. Any time I need to do anything with those tickets, I have to ask her to log in and do it. Even the Season Seat Rep admitted it's a dumb system.

Except OpenWRT is not supported on a lot of modern (AX) TP-Link devices.
