+7, IT professional that has a home lab where I cosplay as a system admin. I also agree people are the problem, not the tech or tools, and there are many times where I feel like a tech priest from 40k (they pray to the machines instead of knowing how they work) I do know some people that would classify as +9 or +10, they are wizards who spend their days pondering their orbs (screens).

Oh they are all petty twits.

Regan pitched a fit and removed the solar panels Carter left on the roof when he left office. This is just more proof the regressive party has no taste.

Thats even the funny part, you cant.

The reason they skipped Windows 9 was some ancient piece of code, lost to the ages that has been incorporated into Windows since dinosaurs once roamed the earth.

Atleast with the linux kernel you know who put what where, and can send them a fish in the mail if you think what they made stinks.

Hot Fuzz

Every watch you notice new little details. This film is the (modenr) textbook example of Checkov’s gun.

And this is why my friends and I play a silly game every time missionaries go stomping about the neighborhood, the goal, get them to talk as long as possible (my record is 45 min.)

This does two things, the first is that they arnt going to bother anyone else (Im very not interested and am trying to not have them waste anyone else’s time). The second is a lot harder, it is an opportunity to try and get in some deprogramming. Direct all your conversation at the younger person, JW and mormons do this most often but we have a few cults in the area and this is important for them too. Be nice, offer them tea, engage in the philisophy they are peddling, play the role of Socrates and ask annoying questions but dont come off as condesending. A lot of cults need to scare their younger members into staying in the fold, prove that having a nice conversation with the friendly atheist down the street wont cause them to burst into flames.
