It’s not about the area of the cone. It’s about dissecting a problem to find that it is composed of smaller problems that you can solve more easily. It’s about recognizing the similarities to what you know in something you haven’t seen before.

Unfortunately that isn’t something you can teach without lots of arbitrary and pointless examples.

If your distro ships with the tool inxi, you can dump a lot of data about your system with inxi -Fazy. Folks might be better able to help you then. The -z flag filters sensitive information.

Must be an awesome feeling to be able to stick the finger to a person in power and knowing they’ll see it.

I didn’t think of that. And it wasn’t even late when I commented, so I don’t have an excuse.

What the hell about “Mommy will put you in time-out” makes you think it’s horny? Lay off the Pornhub, dude.

Yeah, I’m sure that municipality has the cash lying around to just redesign all their streets. Why didn’t they think of that?

Well… there’s two sides to this. The sidewalk there looks narrow. Banning tables might have been a measure to make walking easier and remove cars.

TCP ACK packages are tiny compared to the payload. I’m not sure this is really your issue.
