Notes

King, A. Xavier Rudd: Bathing In Koonyum Sun, viewed 11 May 2010, from

gollark: Anyway, surely you could just write code on a different device.
gollark: No, semicolon (yo)u.
gollark: By default, unless they changed it, Windows devices are not full disk encrypted, so it's very trivial to get around that if you have a live USB for linux or something.
gollark: The bunker appeals server is too quiet. Do something which would cause you to get banned or whatever, everyone.
gollark: Unsupported devices can, I think, still be manually updated to Windows 11. Not that you should do that, as it's bad.
