| schestowitz | To be frank, they use unsupported Vista and we don't have patches for their EoL Debian. We really need to upgrade these machines and rethink how we access these. At the moment it's mostly 'security theatre' due to arcane GE policies. | Nov 10 18:38 |

| schestowitz | I will be faaaaaaaaaaar more careful from now on. I apologise. In the case of EPO I kept a separate file for things that could not be shared, even in redacted form, until a year later. Some things are still secret and may become handy one day (mostly Office gossip). Maybe I can share these files one day if I feel an illness poses risk to their possession and retention. I also have lots of legal docs and some unpublished drafts (on files). | Nov 10 18:58 |
