When I started with Linux, I started with vim because the tutorials I was working off used vi and vim. Once I started with vim and learned the commands, I wasn’t going to switch to something else… there’s a joke somewhere in there about not knowing how to exit… but I’m not making it.

If I was going to write documentation now for a Linux newbie, I’d probably pick nano to start with.

Give me Windows 95 with Microsoft Plus!

Not exactly the same scenario, but close enough for proof of concept.

I’m honestly surprised it’s taken them this long. They bought Waze in 2013. I feel like Waze has been doing this kind of ad for at least that long.

We check criminal records from local and national databases as well as your driving record. Because my industry is working with kids, we’re really just checking to make sure you don’t have any child abuse or neglect on your record.

Other industries, I’m sure, are looking for different things based on what they’re hiring for. Where I work, there is a different set of checks we run on folks that work in our finance department, but I don’t oversee that area.

I moved to LMDE 6 when it came out, moving over from regular Mint. It’s so nice and boring… Which is exactly how I like my computer to be.

May I interest you in lolcat?

My wife does daily to plug into our car. When she recently got a phone without a jack, I bought her a dongle for charging and audio.

Does she use wired audio daily? Yes. Does her phone have a headphone jack? Well, no.

I’m the “kid who’s good with technology” despite being almost 40. Most of the problems I deal with are people who don’t know their passwords.

I should have listened when a younger coworker told me “never let them know that you can fix the printer.”

Double Z’s will save and then exit. The command on until board will exit without saving changes.

One of the big contributors is forking the project.

As long as shrink stays below what they save by removing cashiers they will stay. It may be location specific removals at high shrink stores.

So he’s attracted to Girls plus Puberty.

What a waste! I would have catfished him for half that price!

It’s worth noting that Facebook regularly collects information and builds profiles about people who are not users (or are users who but aren’t logged in). The average user would be surprised what a company like Facebook can put together on individuals who have never made an account.
