I don’t know, I’m just a sqwrl.

I “do work” just fine on Arch but maybe I’ve just gotten used to the quirks and the DIY aspect of it. None of it is an obstacle to productivity anymore.
I do realize I’m not the average person and am some kind of freak that likes to take working stuff apart and put it back together for funsies.
If the kid is opening up to a third party for this kind of issue instead of their own parent, somewhere along the line, that parent has failed at being a parent and has broken the trust between them and their child. That’s how I see it. This is 100% the safer option for many, many kids. Please do not take away the one safe space they have and just throw them back to their fucked up parents.

The world is dominated by people like this Karen. Making society so fucking dry, boring, and lifeless. The same sort of people who invented corpospeak.
That is also possible with IPv4 though.
I also use Homeassistant. It’s a very rapidly moving target, development-wise, it’s understandable that a website listing a procedure to do something from a year ago may not be correct today.

Still waking up and making breakfast. They’re perpetually 5 hours late.
You forgot to remove the default Testosterone and install the Estrogen package instead.
As someone who’s worked on other people’s cars, you’re giving people way too much credit for knowing stuff about cars…
I have encountered people that didn’t know what engine oil was even for or why it had to be changed out periodically.

You are not the only thing capable of running binaries on your system. There’s always the possibility of something else being compromised that now has the capability to run this binary.
Security comes in many layers on top of each other and with software having to work together to plug all possible holes, not just the direct exploitation paths you are currently actively conscious about and using.
BIOS? I wired switches directly to the data and address lines of my RAM/CPU and toggle in the machine code directly every time I use my PC.
Data is garbage until you define its structure and what it is supposed to represent, and there’s nothing stopping something from interpreting it as something else, we do it all the time in progranming as type casting. The same piece of data can be just a normal integer to one function, while it’s a text character to another.
Do not the filesystem/partition management while high. From personal experience.
Exactly the same concept as memory-mapped hardware I/O, or virtual file system drivers. Makes it so you don’t have to think too much about implementation details and uses a common interface that’s already there.
Some people enjoy just ordering a plate of raw ground beef, flour, yeast, and some cheese and constructing their own burger. The kind of people who’d love to completely design and build their own house with their own hands if they had the cash and time.
Is this just like the equivalent of a getter method in C++?
That’s what I’m trying to say though, I’m at the point to where it’s not a waste of time for me because I know immediately what to do if something goes wrong or I need to make some sort of config change or install/remove software. I’m no longer “tinkering” with it, I’m using it. It’s just as fast for me as it is for someone on a more “user friendly” OS.
In other words, I have scaled most of the learning curve cliff.
