My work will not provide me a work machine for the very optional WFH benefit I have. Either I use my personal machine, or I have to go into the office, and fuck the office.
So, I put my work stuff into Virtual Machine jail; if they want to spy on me, they’ll have to figure out how to break out of that first.
if i had to provide a pc for work at home, it’d be a separate machine used exclusively for that, and isolated on its own lan.
Yah a decent work machine with an i5, 256GB SSD, and 8GB RAM is like 300USD on sale in many countries. No way I wouldn’t just do that, the fuel savings and commute time would pay for it immediately.
Good plan, just ensure you isolate that VM from your home network, too. I don’t trust my company at all, so their laptop only connects to my guest wifi.
Yeah, that’s a pretty good option as well.
