I think you may have misread, the wreck is about 3.8km deep (5 mile or so). It's 690km away from the nearest cost laterally.

It was never much use to enterprise so never got wide adoption.

It relied on a lot of different hardware and drivers all working nicely together as both client and host, which is a lot more difficult than a WAP-client relationship in practice.

Companies make the stuff, if no one uses it, no market, no money for development or maintenance.

Even on the windows side you are better off with the 1st party defender features these days.

Enterprise use 3rd party AV for central orchestration and control. Theres no reason for this in consumer land.

The threat detection isn't meaningfully better across any of them (aside from some being "astonishingly bad") despite what vendors claim.

The best people to know how to protect your OS are the people that made it.

Yes, it's all very good.

Nice try but I'm keeping my even more instant instant noodles to myself.

I'll give you a hint though, the secret is in being ok with pumping boiling water into your stomach.

Yeah windows standby sucks. On platforms where the equivalent of s0 doesn't suck, it's awesome.

Don't you? Instant wake is hella useful, especially if you are using a laptop as a laptop and moving between meeting rooms etc, constantly bumping between sleep and wake.

They note towards the bottom they've also developed a sustainable resin in place of PVA.

Seagate are still pretty good? Western Digital/Sandisk are the ones with failing external SSD issues at the moment (same company).

It's pot luck generally, unfortunately. Even good manufacturers can have a bad batch.

Not really.. just a slightly higher end of gear, most of dells professional series will do it from memory, the gigabyte on my desk does it.

Yeah.. tend to agree - it's doable but OP would be reaching for some fairly hectic gear to solve a pretty small problem. Consumer monitors with PIP definitely exist and would be cheaper.

If all you're looking to do is nicer input switching, a KVM switch would be a better solve.

Capture cards would be more useful if you wanted to record the gaming sessions. AFAIK they will always introduce latency as they are usually designed for a situation where that is fine.
