To be fair they said “5 minutes” but did not give a number of shots.

“s” implies at least 2, leaving some wiggle room that they where not accustomed to strong liquor and had trouble getting It down. 2 of them because they underestimate the effect of just one.

I don’t know how many employees the m365 platform needs to serve but where i work there are multiple dedicated teams to manage it all.

But we also do have hundreds of unique functions and roles that all need their own set of rights and permissions with regular audits wether permissions are to loose/underused.

No one in IT has local admin anymore but we do have a (logged) way to temporary elevate ourselves to local admin when needed.

The result of this kind of infrastructure is torture.

Imagine having to downgrade your bed from being a cold large stone slab because some rich people who also own the empty building across the street decided to spend money to stop you from doing so.

Physical and mental torture. Definitely violence.

Karma as a “real cosmic force” is a specific concept of Indian religion.

It has adaptations in different subcultures but to my interpretation, their interpretation is different from religious karma. Its not a divine ultimate force but a sense of morality and chain of reasoning that comes with social awareness. The bigger bully the captain, the more likely the crew considers a mutiny.

So maybe the experiences you had saying Karma isn’t real came off as losing hope that the common people have any chance of raising up.

The sentence itself understood within context is not unpopular.

But what i am going to disagree massively on here, that i would assume is very unpopular is your classification of people in 4 simple single focused groups. I belong to all 4 of those groups on any given day and i don’t think thats special. If i would have to pick one dominant id say i am a thinker, but an essential part of thinking is observing the current and the past to understand where we stand now and where we come from. The way you defined the groups you appear to gatekeep observational awareness under watcher.

As for being an instigator, i like to subtly poke holes in the reasoning of people around me who are subtly (or unknowingly) expressing fascist ideas and i don’t mind putting a hidden problem on fire to make it harder to ignore. But what you describe is basically just narcissistic people.

Or like the other comment mentioned, could now for the first communicate with His daughter and family.

This is a common stereotype but there is a reasonably sized group of Linux enthusiasts who work on macs.

Macos is a real unix based OS. (As opposed to unix compatible GNU “Gnu is Not Unix”) and they claim the performance (apples own chips), even in a vm is amazing.

I had at least one coworker who did this, i also remember Emily Young (Who some remember as Anthony from Ltt) also had quite a few apple products in her house.

It really depends what the expectation is here.

On face value this wish is not different then “i want to be a doctor, marine biologist, astronaut” These things require years of professional expertise.

But does the kid really want to become an degree holding expert in a field… or do they just want to feel like what they think the job entails.

Its definitely incorrect that being a “hacker” is illegal. In many interpretations a hacker is simply someone who uses technology creatively in sometimes unintended ways. But i am assuming they mean computer hacker specifically.

My suggestion would be to start with giving the kid a laptop with linux and to follow some guides on how to use the terminal, you learn a lot about how computers work that way. There are also apps to emulate a linux terminal on a phone/tablet which can be complementary to the laptop to experiment with a small network of devices.

A starter project would be to build a bootable usb that you can plug in any laptop/pc usb port. They could use that as their personal “hacker os” that can be kept safe seperatly from their device. With this technically any wild pc with an unlocked bios can be temporarily be turned in your pc where you are admin with your tools and files where you are admin.

Another cool project they could learn is how to setup a remote connection to acces a terminal on a pc on another network (using ssh-key (secure), not passwords (insecure) it does mean someone needs to setup that pc with an open port but the first time i tunnelend into my own network this way it definitely made me feel like a hacker. And a “real hacker” would need to know those basics first anyway.

You might also want to check sdf.org they provide free unix shells and guides for all kinds of stuff.

How does piped compare to invidious?

I actually looked this up earlier today because i didn’t understand part of it.

An ssh key is, as i understand it, a way to encrypt the connection so only a device that has they key can unlock it.

There are 2 parts, a private key which should never be shared and a public one which can freely be shared.

You usually generate both keys on the device that connects to the ssh, keep the private key on there with the public key going on the server. Thats the part that confused me. (Why is the secret one not on the server i don't want people to access)

But the way it works is that the public key is used to encrypt/lock something.And only the private key can unlock it.

Any other device that tries to connect just gets an encrypted connection they don’t have the key for. Because these keys are so long no current day tool can guess or crack them. So it is the absolute safest way to establish an ssh connection.

Quantum computers might in the future be able to break them but solutions for this are being worked on.

There are also some systems where you have 2 key pairs where the server also has a private key, to authenticate both ways.
