@Asmodeus566 Something else to keep in mind as computers get faster it takes less time to brute force hack an account. Faster computers can cycle through passwords at a faster rate. So what was considered a good password 2 years ago, no longer is.
Update passwords every year and use 2FA. The entire idea behind security is to make it such a headache to get into the account that hackers go after easier targets.

As security minded as I am, I think Microsoft went a little too far with Windows 11 demanding a TPM chip.
I don't see this should be the requirement of the OS. I imagine it will be only a matter of time before some tweaker makes a workaround to avoid the demand. Meanwhile Linux OS it is still optional to use a TPM, I like options and I don't care for demands. TPM's have been around for over a decade now. They are pretty common but they are an extra layer of security I just don't use for my home machine. If they suggested it, or even set it as a default, I wouldn't criticize Microsoft for the usage. Between this and the demand to have a camera and a microphone on the PC, Windows is headed down an Orwellian future.
