Denmark and Greenland. Both mentioned in the meme.

Nmap isn't encouraged where I work. I ran it once on a customer's IP a couple months when I first started here. The firewall interpreted it as an attack, and blocked us for 20 mins. Except we had a BOVPN connection to them, so 20mins never reset because it thought we kept hitting it. Since we needed to hit it to change the setting manually, it was pretty annoying to fix, though one of our guys managed about 5-6 hours later that night.

Honestly most do not. Plenty of parking lots I go to (mostly supermarkets) don't have these and people park fine, 90% of the time. People do take advantage and drive across when leaving and entering sometimes, but usually that isn't an issue either

On the other hand,I still remember trying to go to the movies with friends in a busy shopping plaza and some asshole with huge tires on his truck parked in a way that took up 4 whole parking spaces. I wanted to key up the truck. I wanted super powers that would let me move it to the lake, upside-down. That was like 12-15 years ago and it still makes me irrationally angry a bit.

I doubt these would have stopped that particular truck, but like many seemingly dumb rules, they aren't for the majority. They're for the occasional asshole who refuses to abide by the social construct. America certainly panders to those with the whole focus on individualism, but it hardly has a monopoly.

It's Dr Manhattan at home

Sir/madam/???, this is a community called Reddit. This specifically is where people would care(though I agree with the sentiment).

One person's immature bullshit is another person's funny. I don't really care for it either, but I don't see a point of gatekeeping it. It'll always happen, probably easier to learn to ignore it.

In addition there are unfortunately a lot of solutions on there. I've uninstalled reddit a long time ago and don't browse/scroll it, but for specific topics and especially IT stuff I sometimes find solutions there. I may find em on stack exchange or any of the other various sites, including company forums, but sometimes Reddit will have the right solution. I'd rather it not since it seems to perform even worse these days, but it's the unfortunate truth

That's... part of it, but part of it is just ease of use. In growing up, I had to figure out issues with my computer,and getting games etc working took some work to do. I build a gaming PC for my nephew(under 10, but games a lot mobile and with consoles) and he played a few games on it, but then my sister (a gamer herself) said he couldn't really get used to keyboard over controller (at which point I reminded her she could just get him a PC controller or use one of the console ones that also work on PC).

He just seems to prefer to use things that are already intuitive, and since my childhood things have gotten much better in that regard for consoles and mobile stuff. You can definitely do it on PC as well, but it often means more accessories, sometimes figuring out issues . I got another sister of mine a controller for pc and it took a bit of effort getting it properly synced for the game she wanted to play. It would show up properly in the OS, but then the game he issues, so we had to switch through modes and such, and sometimes even though one mode may work an update or something may break it.

I like using controllers for some games, and WASD for others, but even though IT is my job and I'm good at fixing things, some games have weird issues with some controllers, especially if they have mode options. All that extra fixing and finding the right settings is just frustrating for some, and with easy to use alternatives they may not bother to learn. I had no choice, just SNES and pc while growing up.

Due to work environment and me not switching yet (I won't go to W11,but switching requires a bunch of time investment I haven't gotten around to yet) I'm mostly working in Windows, but even them I use CLI a ton. Mostly powershell, but there are a lot of cmd commands useful in troubleshooting, and robocopy and other tools are more reliable than their gui counterparts.

I work for a managed service provider, and security for our clients is one of our most important goals.

Our CEO accidentally got phished then sent out emails to all our clients. We rolled with it by explaining kinda what you just said.

I have a 2015 leaf and my biggest issue is the fast charge point being ChaDeMo, with second place being the range I don't think I can go for a brand new Leaf atm, but this is def good news.

Geh, didn't realize it was a SUV now.

Edit 2: maybe just slightly bigger rather than being SUV... I might have to see it in person.

I wouldn't be here if my mom didn't fuck someone.
