I see stories on the news about people that have lost 5 years of pictures or whatever & that is terrible.

XBox Adaptive Controller
Last month, I got a $1000 amazon card for my retirement and I read the article about the adaptive controller and so I'm thinking XBox might be fun. Question is, if your reflexes are not as fast as someone not physically challenged, can you still play with it and have a good time or are you just going to get your ass kicked as soon as you start playing? I have never owned a game console so it is all new to me.

Can you really "sandbox" a browser?
I've played around with SandBoxie & I use Hyper-V all of the time, but is it truly possible to be protected since it has to be interacting with the host system to run. Can you run a process in an operating system while also isolating it from that same OS?
My gut feeling is, it may give a user a false sense of invulnerability and therefore make them MORE likely to be infected.

1803 was a disaster
Well, I thought I would go ahead and update. After 2 days, I gave up. It would run fine for maybe 10 minutes and then the interface (desktop, start button, right click) would just stop responding. The machine was not locked up....Mouse still worked. To me, it's seems like there a process triggered after several minutes. And this was both with an update and a complete clean install (wiped partition table). This is the first version that I have ever had any serious issues running.
No doubt, they'll get it right and in fairness, I forced the upgrade so I'm not saying Microsoft wrecked my machine! You install an insider build, you agree to take the risks. Just saying, I would wait until it is offered and not go get it....
