OS install on the new PC went well enough. I was worried I borked something in the process because I'd just get a black screen on boot, but that was either my monitor or the joy of using HDMI. Unplugging and plugging the cable back in fixed it.

The other thing was i didn't install the OS properly the first time. The computer didn't know to boot from its own storage. The instructions there weren't very clear. Second time around after the black screen issues got that sorted

    His Lordship is off to NZ for Flight of the Conchords and consequently i had to get up at bumfuck to feed the felines and dose the insulin.

    The cats are used to wheedling gooshy food out of his lordship. I grew up with cats and am much harder to manipulate. There was dry food. Only. Dry. Food.

    No one was happy this morning.

    Old habits. In the past it would have been on paper in a filing cabinet that hadn't been opened in a decade.

    The problem now is not that data is easier to steal, paper could always be stolen, but that the data is in a form that is easy to exploit.

    I don't know what can be done to protect people.

    So Who Gives A Crap (who I haven't ordered from in many years, I remember my kids were very little) have just informed me that they've had a data breach of full name, phone number, email address, billing/home address and the amount spent in total for the account. Why are these companies keeping details for so long? This is almost as bad as the periodontal clinic that had the same issue a few months back, leaked my details when I hadn't been a customer of theirs for over 13 years. There has to be a time by which the details of dormant accounts or old accounts are deleted. They shouldn't be allowed to just keep your details forever when you aren't engaging their services. I feel like they aren't being careful enough.
