Uses terminal, but has a paper cheat sheet for all the commands.
Paper cheat sheet? What's the point when you have the man page?
Image Transcription: Comic
[An Engineer Helping A Designer]
Panel 1
[Two people stand in front of a computer. One, the designer, has blue hair with a full beard and moustache, with sideburns, and a large nose. The other, the engineer, has brown hair and wears a hoodie. The engineer is typing at the computer, with a window up on the screen, while the designer stands with their arms limp by their sides.]
Engineer: No problem, we can fix this on the terminal
Panel 2
[The designer has their hand up to their beard, with wide eyes and a mouth rounded by amazement. The designer has a slightly confused expression, eyebrows frowning a little.]
Designer: Whoa, you're a hacker!
Engineer: No, it's just the terminal.
Panel 3
[The designer has their hands in the air, their mouth wide open, their eyebrows arced and both eyes looking in opposite directions in a look of bafflement. The engineer is rolling their eyes.]
Designer: Where are all the buttons, icons, and dropdown menus?
Panel 4
[Now with both hands to their beard, the designer has returned to their look of amazement, but with a hint of fear in their eyes, their pupils contracted to tiny white dots. The engineer looks relatively unphased.]
Designer: Is this... the matrix?
Engineer: Yes.

When I was in school someone was once looking what I was doing and I opened the terminal and pinged google. It was midly impressive and I still cringe that I even considered doing this for what amounts to clot.
🤣 I was doing the opposite - I was making Winforms apps to exploit my school system (mainly browsing other users' documents) without standing out. They had restrictions set in Windows Explorer but somehow never actually bothered to setup permissions on the file server.
I ended up creating a folder on the fileserver (normally restricted) and dumping a bunch of games in there (such as gta3, gta VC and gta sa). The IT staff found out after a few weeks because people were stealing laminated posters to shim the computer lab doors open, just to play the games from the fileserver...
Nice attempt to swap the stereotypes
