Chrome Dictionary

While noodling around in a Google Chrome profile folder today I saw an interesting file called Custom Dictionary.txt. Seeing a file that breaks from the normative state in Chrome of using SQLite3 for storage is specifically what caught my attention.

The contents were as follows:

TPM
checksum_v1 = 0b6a4dcbb091e06760bca1e0cd2b1989

First, yes... this is a very spartan custom dictionary. The first entry was actually added yesterday while doing a comprehensive write-up on StackExchange regarding the nuances of different TPM 1.1/1.2/2.0 implementations.

It's a strange kind of diary. One line, sitting in a profile folder, telling anyone who stumbles onto it exactly what I was elbow deep in a day earlier, and nothing else.
