For folks who cannot do this due to it being a work-controlled machine or otherwise, you can use notepad++

That is assuming their work-controlled machine already has Notepad++ installed, right?

It depends on how locked down it is. There is a portable version that doesn't require install, but also you might get in trouble for running exes from the web.

Nope!

Amusingly there is a very large overlap in the companies that want to try to force ai tech crap onto their workers, but dont limit admin controls for users.

But to be more specific, what i meant by work-controlled is that you cant just install linux on a work machine or uninstall office products for alternatives due to company licensing.

Nothing preventing you from just not using that crap though of course but at that point you know your own company limits than i would so god speed!

Last thing you'd probably want to do is be forced into sitting in a class with Mr.MiddleManager / Mr.NepotismHire to go over why these AI products are actually good for you and they arent happy you circumvented that.
