This is the first “shitpost” I’ve seen in a very long while that’s absolutely a shit post for some people and the absolute truth for the rest of us. Gold!

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Same user, more than one computer?

You mean like the student who was required to leave their medication, insulin if I recall, at the office because of “needles” and then was denied access and called the fire department who broke down the door to get access so the student didn’t die?

I don’t think that students leaving things “at the office” is ever a solution and I don’t think you have any idea what the logistics of 200 or 2,000 phones (that was the size of my primary school and high school respectively) at the office looks like.

I suspect that the answer to that question is “No”.

See: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Betteridge’s_law_of_headlines

Wait for it in … 3 … 2 … 1 … say it with me … “but who will think of the children” … when inevitably there’s yet another school shooting and they can’t call 911?

It’s pretty fucked up that there’s a society on this Earth where school shootings are “expected” and that’s the reason why you cannot remove mobile phones from the student body.

The question is, how many dead students is it going to take for this phone ban to be reversed?

I really am grateful that I am not forced to make those choices living on the other side of the planet.

On any command line you can likely just run a single letter command: w

Quality of Life, Life Balance, something like that?

Word of caution.

I’ve gone down this route and discovered the phrase “you’re overqualified”, which is bandied around when you describe your previous experience.

Don’t let this dissuade you, just keep it in mind.

Good luck with the job interview!

Rule 34 wants a word …

Ask Little Red Riding Hood.

“Why such big teeth?” “To better eat you.”

I suspect that there’s a relationship between cute and being eaten by the parents of cute.

What a surprise, lawmakers in the USA cut their noses to spite their faces … again.

I wonder what it would take for this to stop happening.

Pretty much everything on Linux is a “file”, which is a metaphor used throughout the operating system.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Everything_is_a_file

The file you create using the dd command is just a file. It can live on any filesystem capable of storing a 256 GB file.

Make sure that you compare the checksum between the drive and the file and store a copy of it with the file, so you can check it after restoring the data.

Note that you can even mount that file using a loopback interface, so you can read the content, but if you alter it, the checksum will change.

Welcome to Linux where all manner of magic is built-in.

… and then goes on to point out how they are arbitrarily applied.

Why do we have to trawl through the bottom of Xitter?

I thought that we all left them behind to come here so we could get on with making a better global community.

If this company that’s tied to the bankrupt individual has money to bid, does that mean that money is already part of the bankruptcy proceedings and if not, why not?

You don’t need a specific service to do this, you can run your own.

Set-up a PayPal account, let people pay into the account, donate the funds to the NGO.

If you’re looking for a renewed sense of respect for a crow, here’s Mark Rober, (of glitter bomb and squirrel fame) with eye opening crow activity.

This is now what spammers are doing. I’ve got about 50 different “companies” offering their services complete with follow up, meeting bookings, reminders and encouragement to sign up now, then come the threats or request for acknowledgement, then they change their email address and start from the top.

Come to think about it, it’s probably more like 100 different attempts, each with their own repeating thread.

99% automatically land in my spam folder, but it’s just ludicrous. It also makes actual commerce via email pretty much impossible.

I’ve had offers for lead generation, appointment setting, transcript services, SEO, website redesigns, app development, social media marketing and management, investment opportunities, offers for speaking engagements, conference sponsorships, purchasing and product offers, the list is endless.
