    I bought a mouse jiggler for my work laptop. Not the dongle, no - just one that goes underneath an actual mouse; it’s stupid simple.

    Ever since I had an “awakening” about AI and Microsoft trying to force their “Recall” “feature” down everyone’s throats (which btw was the catalyst for my wiping Windows out of my home entirely - I now run Linux exclusively), I’ve been extremely wary of doing anything not 100% work-related on my work laptop. My boss doesn’t care as long as our tasks get done, but I don’t trust the upper management with that kind of power.

    And for what it’s worth, since I know someone will try to call it out: I only use it while I’m at my desk, and I’m very much in the habit of locking things before walking away. Mainly because I don’t like having to poke the trackpad every 10 minutes just to keep an eye out for messages while playing a game or surfing on my personal device (which is almost never connected to the guest network).

    Instead we just hope that we can make you redundant by training AIs to do your job.
