They'd rather a Republican be in charge than a socialist.

I'm looking forward to the find out phase come hurricane season

You can easily erase permanent marker from whiteboards with regular whiteboard markers.

Thanks for the link, but it also says that the main character's name is Jack in the script, and there's a very brief shot of a paycheck showing his name as Jack as well:

Been with fedora for years, but fedora is the problem, so that would be pretty pointless.

And on top of that, every 401k I've ever had has a vesting scheme. So if you're not with the company 6+ years, they take a portion of your 401k that they contributed, whether or not you quit or they fire you.

So even the employee match isn't a guarantee (assuming they match at all).

Close it and let the city run it.

You put a good person in a shit department and they leave or become shit themselves ; either way, they whole group is still shit.

Humans aren't a gallon of water, but you're naive if you think we're not influence-able just the same.

They only really block access when there isn't an official way to validate. Iirc, Louisiana did this over a year ago and pornhub is doing age verification there now.

Download the iso and install home. It won't stop you, ask for a key, or attempt to activate later. It just installs, runs, and spies happily.

Well sure, anything is free when you steal it. Whether or not they care enough to come after home users, doesn't change the fact that it's not free.

But yea, know your audience and give them something they can use. I made my mother learn mint after the 80th time I had to clean the windows box, and she did well enough with it.

If you're using a remote access product that is as water right as a fishing net, and have years of history of them fucking around with security (account takeover controversy in 2016, didn't have default 2fa until 2018), you're kinda in the neighborhood of getting what you deserve. This is like being on Facebook and complaining that fuckerberg is spying on you and using your data to feed their AI.

If this was still the mid teens, I'd give people a pass. But TeamViewer has been a trash product for longer than my kid has been alive, and anyone still using it should have done their due diligence on the software they chose (negligence doesn't mean they deserve it, but it's hard to feel sympathy when they chose to not do the research on a service that has direct access to your systems), or already accepted the risks of using it (so they absolutely deserve it)
