Can you give some examples of interactions that you would prefer to happen, and what would initiate those interactions? I typically avoid interacting with security. When I was working retail, people would attempt to strike up a conversation to distract me while their accomplice was waiting to steal stuff. So I feel like if I walked over to them for no reason then they’d actually be more stressed out.

Hardware-facing software as well. Usually involving some proprietary super sketchy driver and it might even only work on specific versions of Windows.

Really old people seem to be the heaviest AI users, or at least they are in my bubble. So maybe pa is getting it on with an AI granny in that retirement home.

It is official; Netcraft now confirms: Linux is dying
One more crippling bombshell hit the already beleaguered Linux community when IDC confirmed that Linux market share has dropped yet again, now down to less than a fraction of 1 percent of all servers. Coming close on the heels of a recent Netcraft survey which plainly states that Linux has lost more market share, this news serves to reinforce what we’ve known all along. Linux is collapsing in complete disarray, as fittingly exemplified by failing dead last in the recent Sys Admin comprehensive networking test.
You don’t need to be a Kreskin to predict Linux’ future. The hand writing is on the wall: Linux faces a bleak future. In fact there won’t be any future at all for Linux because Linux is dying. Things are looking very bad for Linux. As many of us are already aware, Linux continues to lose market share. Red ink flows like a river of blood.

Back in the day tomsrtbt was similarly inspiring. It could boot from a single 3½" floppy. Always kept one around as a rescue disk.

Your comment makes no sense. Are you doing okay?

Out of curiosity, what happens if you image the laptop drive and boot it under VirtualBox (keeping the Linux host offline, so the Windows guest can’t phone home)? Potentially useful: superuser.com/…/how-can-i-clone-a-hard-drive-dire…

It’s not about looking it up or not, it’s a challenge to the boasting of the commenter above me in the context of the OP’s post.

Very close! -R, either, -R, -r, -r, -r. I typically think “-R except for ssh-related”, but zip violates that and I’m sure there are plenty of other counterexamples too. On the topic of ssh, I still can’t keep -p or -P straight (ssh vs scp).

With
lsyou can list the contents of directories recursively. Or you can list the contents in reverse order. One of them requires a lowercase “r”, one requires uppercase, but which is which? It’s not such a big deal that different commands have inconsistent syntax, but even having run Linux as my primary OS since 2004, and before that Unix since 1993, I still have to look these up sometimes. -

A couple more challenges:
- As an unprivileged user, append multiple lines to a file owned by root, using sudo and a here document.
- Redirect both stdout and stderr to a file using Bourne shell syntax (not bash!)

For recursive behavior, tell me if each of these requires
-ror-R(or either) without looking it up (man page,–help, web, etc):- chown
- cp
- ls
- rsync
- scp
- zip

I love that “Mobile Web” is still larger than “Android” and also larger than “iOS” (usually). Nag screen didn’t work!

Comment could have been a :q!
That does sound pretty hard to deal with. Hopefully a better opportunity will present itself to you sooner than later. Are you allowed to listen to music, audiobooks, podcasts or such, maybe with a single earbud? Some YTers like Technology Connections make videos that can be listened to without looking at the screen. VAS Aviation is another one.
When I’m out riding my bike (usually later, to beat the heat) there are a few commercial buildings I pass by that are under construction. And there are people sitting alone in vehicles all night keeping an eye on things (probably to prevent copper theft, homeless trashing it, etc). I’ve often wondered if they’re bored out of their minds and would appreciate conversation, but I’ve never stopped just in case it alarms them.
