Many years ago, it was discovered that Wine could run Windows viruses/worms/malware just fine, thank you very much…

“Sandboxing”, it isn’t.

It runs with all the privileges of the user running the app, iirc.

If you have the ability to take a look at either SANS website, and see their articles, or have your system show you all the automatic attacks hitting your machine, then maybe you will understand…

Botnets are coded to hammer-away at all possible internet-addresses, trying to break-in & highjack more machines, to include in the established criminal-machine that the botnet is…

SANS said, a decade or 2 ago, that it took, on average, something like 6 or 4 minutes for a new MS-Windows machine to be owned by some attack from the internet.

I’ve had linux machines cracked/owned, and wiped 'em to get 'em clean.

Having no immune-system is BAD.

Linux botnets, apple operating-system botnets, they exist.

I don’t think there is any operating-system that is connected to the internet that doesn’t have attacks coded to crack it.

I just looked at SANS.org, and they have totally changed, so they are now … more a moneymaking-machine wanting B2B biz?

Here, though, are some cheat-sheets they made:

https://www.sans.org/posters/?msc=main-nav

They used to tell us the top-20 most effective protections for particular threats, identifying how prevalent the threats were, etc…

No idea who does that nowadays…

Please consider using John Truby’s book ( or even the cover of it ) “The Anatomy of Genres” for identifying the 14 Genres of story.

Myth, Epic, Western, etc…

“adventure” isn’t a genre: it occurs in multiple genres, serving as the canvas on-which the genre’s points are written…

That book, btw, is an awesome bunch of psychology.

Some minor errors, like mis-defining comedy…

( proper definition of humour: “improbable violation of expectation”, or a strange-loop form )

…to be made of a “drop”, a debasing, or put-down, or reduction of somebody…? Maybe in the US, but it isn’t the true fundamental root of humour.

sooo much gold in that book, though: definitely worth investing in.

( for anybody wanting the core competencies in writing, I’d say that both John Truby’s books, and Shaun Coyne’s “The Story Grid” are books that are required, and they are the top/core competencies. Coyne recommends McKee, as well. )
