  • I work in IT, and we recently hired a new "Engineer" at my company. I noticed on the form that he claimed to have extensive knowledge of Python, so I decided to meet him. The first question I asked was what IDE he uses, and he replied, "Anaconda." Before I knew it, he was referring to the entire computer as a "CPU" and struggled to solve simple issues on Windows. To top it off, he makes 30% more than I do.

    (I work as a Level 1 Service Technician, and my boss is aware that I have experience with coreboot and GNU/Linux. I just got approval to bring my own setup with it installed. Although we work in a Windows environment, I can make it work.

    I also funded and helped test a bunch of hardware for coreboot, with guidance from friends I have who are experienced in the field. However, I only make $55k per year, I'm hoping I can get a nice raise. It's just my boss and I as the two IT guys, so maybe there is potential.)

  • Bruh I literally forgot how to play this game, I already have Space Age, but I just don't have the time to play it that much :(

    I was doing good a couple months back, had an awesome base, then it got absolutely fucked by a horde of spider crickets or whatever you call them.

  • Oh, I've already been doing this putting "Read Receipt" on emails and also checking confirmation of delivery. I forward any critical emails to my personal email just in case he deletes it. He would definitely throw me under the bus if he wanted to. Thank you for the advice though!

  • Thanks for the reply. I'll watch the video later today. Is it really not worth going after my Network+ or Linux+? I would really like to advance my knowledge on both of these.

  • I have experience testing hardware for Libreboot, and I helped test many systems for them. I'm also working with another person from the coreboot community to port four computers (two computers are already done), which will then be ported to Libreboot. I previously had a business where I sold Libreboot hardware. Currently, I'm trying to learn OpenBSD on my server for self-hosting. I have a couple of other small projects as well, but yes, I already have a few projects underway.

    This may be a route I want to pursue; Network+ followed by Linux+ sounds good. I've also heard that Security+ is easier, but I'm not sure if it's easier than Linux+.

  • Here are my top 5:

    • Being on their phone too much.
    • Being willfully ignorant.
    • Believing in religion.
    • Using proprietary social media apps (e.g. Instagram, Snapchat, Facebook).
    • Using non-free BIOS firmware / non-free software.
