I hate trying to work with OS/2. I'm told this worked on IBM systems, but it's a pain in the ass on anything else. Right now, it can see the drive, crate partitions, but not volumes. And it needs volumes to install.
I'm at the point where I be happy if it nuked my two windows installs (because I can put those back) if it would just install itself....

Our internal third party security team just informed me we will need a data protection agreement before we can work with a new potential vendor.
The reason: their support requires us to provide our first name, email, and phone number.
That got me thinking that I now need a DPA with literally everyone.
Are we really going through a whole legal process so that the emails WE USE TO PUBLICALLY COMMUNICATE don't get accidentally disclosed?
Guess 4 was a throw away word to get some letter positions. Totally a waste of effort. Left me more confused then when i started. I wound up getting the clue from one of my starter words and was able to piece it together. #Wordle
