  • Yeah, but the thing is, I’m not really afraid about anyone else. If someone steals my laptop or finds it or whatever, I don’t really care about what they do with my docker cache. And I’m not a target of any particular hacker group. I just feel dirty when corpos train their LLM on my data to sell me useless shit back, so that’s kind of the only thing that I would like to avoid.



  • Contrary to other comments, it’s actually pretty common and easy to install Linux alongside Windows, if you have a harddrive big enough for both. If you want to have both installed, it is recommend to start with Windows because Linux boot loader can recognise Windows partition and integrate it with no problem. And Linux natively supports ntfs so you can seamlessly access all your files absolutely no problem. But if it’s your first time installing Linux it’s easy to mess up and kill the windows partition if you aren’t good with terminology yet, so backing up all your files is not just recommended but straight up required.
