a new way to hide cables
  • now that i think about it, this would be handy for remote support techs walking a user on-site on what to do..

    "you see the 3rd switch from the top that has the cisco logo? i'll need you to power cycle it"

    2 hours later

    "oh i found it"

    vs.

    "you see the girl with the blue hair? unplug the box her hair's connected to"

  • What do you think would improve your Lemmy experience?
  • can't speak for others, but i'm mostly the quiet/introverted/lurker type..

    sometimes i just feel like i have nothing valuable to add to the conversation

    i will make an active effort to engage more tho

  • lol sudo rm -rf /
  • thanks. i have a laptop i deliberately installed debian on.. but that's about it lol

    i'll take you up on the support suggestion too.. i recently had to figure out why a unix server went down at work. luckily we had a set of scripts and commands archived from the manager that supported it before he left. all i did was just run them with a little bit of logic and context applied, but it forced me to poke around a bit and seeing what each command did. i was careful enough not to break anything but i found it quite interesting

  • Microsoft sneaks ads into the new Outlook for Windows
  • i feel like i'm not actually against ads. i'm against the abuse of ads, that take away from the user experience..

    i won't mind seeing an ad if it doesnt get in the way of what i need to do on the pc. i don't need an ad popping up when im trying to work on something, launch an application, download a file, etc. an ad in the corner, big enough for me to be aware of it, but obscure enough to not interrupt me will serve its purpose.

    problem is, ad exposure is non-regulated and i can't believe how the constant ad spamming doesn't seem to phase a lot of people.

  • lol sudo rm -rf /
  • that being said.. what's a good website i can at least go to and learn some linux basics and progress to more advanced stuff? i'd at least want to check that out before i start bugging people..

    i had the opportunity to take a class back in college but 18 yr old me couldn't handle a 7am class and know-it-alls in the back always interrupting the teacher and trying to show off in class..

  • Venus by Tuesday
  • the fellow students in school growing up that always blew off paying attention in school and disrupting class didn't just disappear.. sure i saw less of them when i wasn't confined to those public grade school walls, but it's been a harsh realization for me as I'm seeing them again as adults buying into and spreading the misinformation.

  • It can't be stopped
  • sure if we want to get granular, then yes "it" is a pronoun as well.. it's just not typically used when referring to a person

    the irony behind my use of "it" just now though..
