A Host with No Backup

A Host with No Backup | Battle Born Tech · January 13, 2026 This week on Battle Born Tech, Your data is gone. Your taskbar is stuck. And nobody can leave the Zoom meeting. Welcome to another week at Battle Born Tech. This week, Joe sounds the alarm on a sneaky security vulnerability hiding inside MMS text messaging and why switching to RCS might be the smartest move you make this week. Nancy discovers that being a Zoom host is a lot like a church job: you cannot leave until you find your successor. Charlie goes to war with Windows 11 over where the taskbar belongs, and finds out Microsoft has exactly one thing to say about it. And Kirk brings us the saddest story of the week: a hard drive that did not make it, and a reminder that "different locations, different media" is not just good advice, it is the only advice. Plus: cloud storage explained in four words, why the dust might be the only thing keeping your machine alive, and the eternal truth that hammers are always good.
