I've always wanted a real life "Global" from Earth Final Conflict. Can't wait to find out how badly I won't be able to afford it 😭

reboot -f

Because real men login as root and don't care about such silly things like an init system or file system syncing!

To quote the man page:

-f Does not invoke shutdown(8) and instead performs the actual action you would expect from the name.

A horse with no name (in my ass)

Same here, I used to have this image in my head of a eccentric entrepreneur pushing technology to the max with 'fuck you money'.

Sure he said some crazy shit sometimes, but it kind of felt like he didn't have much of a filter.

Around the time of the Thai cave thing this started to change, but I still gave him the benefit of the doubt until that point.

After that, things just went down hill...

Same here, similar age.

When i got diagnosed with ADHD a few years ago, ny psychologist mentioned that I'm probably on the spectrum as well, but that getting an official diagnosis wouldn't really help anything and she wasn't sure I would even get one.

But having the realisation really opened my eyes though, I now understand better why certain situations always made me irritable and made me have much more peace with my own limitations.

I always knew I was a bit 'off', and knowing I'm on the spectrum kind of felt like the last pieces of the puzzle fell in place.

Security through obscurity would be having a system connected to a network, but relying on a secret / unknown protocol to secure it.

Air-gapping a system is a real and very useful security method. That being said, it's not enough by itself.

If you're interested, have a look at past examples, like the recent work on breaking Tetra communication standard and Stuxnet.

At my current and previous job (IT) we do 3 rounds, team (most important), technical and management. I find that this works pretty well to hire people that really dit both the team and know how to do the job. Each last 40-60 minutes.

The first is where most candidates fail, it's an interview with your future peers with little technical content. Mainly talking about interests, work style, how you interact with team mates, etc.

The second is with senior team members and is mostly technical.

The third is management rubber stamping the teams choice and you have to fuck up pretty badly to fail.

I should add that we hire many candidates from abroad, and having people fail probation after moving their families across the globe would be a really shitty move.

I saw the scene on Reddit many years ago and thought it was hilarious, so it stuck.

There are plenty of options to 'put down' a human as well, but most of those require medical expertise to administer.

Medical personnel generally frown upon the whole idea of putting people down, so they're not really an option

My ass hits the asphalt at 120km/h, not entirely sure I will still be capable of pooping from there after that.

Sshhh, let's all pretend we didn't see this, they'll never know!

Good news, it applies to all battery operated devices, not just phones
