All Activity

An American tourist in Dublin decided to skip his tour group and explore the city on his own. He wandered around, seeing the sights, and occasionally stopping at a quaint pub to soak up the local culture, chat with the lads, and have a pint of Guinness. After awhile, he found himself in a very high class neighbourhood.....big, stately Georgian residences... no pubs, no stores, no restaurants, and worst of all... NO PUBLIC RESTROOMS. After all those pints he really, really had to go. Soon he found a narrow side street, with high walls surrounding the adjacent buildings and decided to use the wall to solve his problem. As he was unzipping, he was tapped on the shoulder by Police Officer Murphy, who said, "What might you be doing?" "I'm very sorry, officer," replied the American, "but I really, really HAVE TO GO, and I just can't find a public restroom." "Right," said Officer Murphy, " follow me". He led him to a back "delivery alley", then along a wall to a gate, which he opened. "In there," pointed the officer. "Whiz away sir, anywhere you want." The American entered and found himself in the most beautiful garden he had ever seen. Manicured grass lawns, statuary, fountains, sculptured hedges, and huge beds of gorgeous flowers, all in perfect bloom. Since he had the cop's blessing, he unburdened himself and was greatly relieved. As he went back through the gate, he said to the officer, "That was really decent of you...is that what you call "Irish Hospitality?" "No sir," replied Officer Murphy, "that is what we call the English Embassy".

your choice TPM 2.0 role TPM 2.0 plays a crucial role in enhancing the security of Windows 11 by providing hardware-level protection for sensitive data. It is essential for the following reasons: Secure Storage: TPM 2.0 securely stores cryptographic keys, passwords, and digital certificates, protecting sensitive information from unauthorized access. Biometric Authentication: It supports Windows Hello for Business, which securely manages and stores biometric data for secure logins. Malware Defense: TPM 2.0 is integral to BitLocker, which encrypts hard drives and partitions, ensuring that only legitimate systems can access them. Secure Boot: It verifies the integrity of the boot process, preventing unauthorized software from loading during startup. Data Execution Prevention (DEP): DEP ensures that malware or unauthorized applications cannot run in the computer's memory, adding an extra layer of protection. TPM 2.0 is a key component in the security architecture of Windows 11, providing a robust foundation for protecting user data and system integrity. Microsoft TPM 2.0 – a necessity for a secure and future-proof Windows 11 with Bit Locker the digital key to your data to stop malware rest can use win10 without TPM but no banking with it is fine for gaming you looking at tower or laptop has come along way in gaming hardware.

Thanks merlinnnnieeeee

Well I have been looking at an excuse to upgrade my computer....no time like the present!

Google "Flyby11". I use it on two laptops that MS said doesn't support Win 11. Worked, both running Win 11. One of them, an old Dell that was given to me, is really low end and runs slow because there isn't a Win 11 gpu driver for it. The cpu has to do all the video work. The other is just fine.

Refer to Jester's and Merlin007 post...

Unfriending before Facebook came along.....

No idea what the hell TPM is. I did this:

Thanks Merlin!
