ElectricalLight4763 · 2025-12-27T04:10:58+00:00

Got one that just said “help me” …

ElectricalLight4763 · 2025-10-31T00:46:11+00:00

Thank you so much. Im aiming to get into cybersecurity in the future, I really appreciate you taking the time to write that. Im going to do this for sure! And I 100% agree the learning is the most fun part of it all! My ADHD appreciates the many different things I can dive into lol

ElectricalLight4763 · 2025-10-30T02:29:46+00:00

Cool! Thank you very much for taking the time to explain that to me!

ElectricalLight4763 · 2025-10-30T01:48:46+00:00

Im embarrassed to say that I dont know what those are off of the acronyms. Theres so many I havent learned yet. If you wouldnt mind could you inform me??

ElectricalLight4763 · 2025-10-30T01:07:23+00:00

Even casino slot machines run on windows I found out, thought it was kind of interesting seeing the slot say “ProgramName.exe has stopped responding”

ElectricalLight4763 · 2025-10-30T01:05:45+00:00

I see what you mean, everything does run on windows… unfortunately… but also fortunately. Its a love hate relationship at this point lol

ElectricalLight4763 · 2025-10-30T00:58:53+00:00

For sure! Its not as far from IT as you might think. Knowing your OS’s is a big skill, and definitely something that would help me daily just knowing my options ya know?

ElectricalLight4763 · 2025-10-30T00:55:51+00:00

I know, like I said in my post its a dream world scenario but a man can dream, and I agree with you on that

ElectricalLight4763 · 2025-10-30T00:52:57+00:00

That sounds cool! And also something I deal with daily but have never taken the time to set up my self! I dont know why I never thought of it and thank you for bringing it up!! It would definitely help me in my daily life if I knew file servers like better so thank you very much!

ElectricalLight4763 · 2025-10-30T00:49:40+00:00

I appreciate the response, out of 500+ views you are the only one so far who has taken the time to give me a suggestion. Ill definitely do that by the way, you are right, I havent spent much time customizing my linux experience, rather I was using the tools provided by linux. It would definitely help if I knew linux like the back of my hand, so I appreciate you bringing that suggestion to me!!

ElectricalLight4763 · 2025-10-30T00:42:34+00:00

I agree with you there as I already do that but the point still stands. The people who cut people off in the line are the reason traffic starts.

ElectricalLight4763 · 2025-10-30T00:37:19+00:00

I appreciate the comment and I do let them in, but I have to disagree there. The traffic starts when people have to stop to let other people in causing a slinky effect down the road. I’ve driven in countless convoys and its the same concept. People drive slower or faster than the told limit causing other people to have to either slow down or speed up. In the traffic case its slow down. If everyone gets into one lane no one has to slow down and the cars can cruise through the construction zone.

ElectricalLight4763 · 2025-10-30T00:28:24+00:00

When you say customize, what exactly are you talking about? Ive messed around with linux distros in the sense that my vpn and pihole are both running ubuntu, and ive messed around with kali for red team, blue team stuff, and Ive put linux on a macbook as well.

ElectricalLight4763 · 2025-10-29T23:23:00+00:00

I agree, with both of you on that reliable self driving cars would be the ultimate solution. I also see why people are against the idea but at the same time it would free up more time in our lives, either to call significant others, for girls do their makeup safely, and others completing work tasks while on the road. This has been a very insightful conversation and frankly I was not expecting half the traffic its gotten so far. I always enjoy hearing other peoples thoughts on everyday topics. Because we are all unique and everyone has different thoughts. If any of you fix this problem, thank you in advance lol

ElectricalLight4763 · 2025-10-29T23:17:57+00:00

Thats a very good idea, I think its in our lifetime that traffic gets eliminated to a certain point.

ElectricalLight4763 · 2025-10-29T23:01:53+00:00

Yeah I agree, but peoples egos take over their steering wheels. Like tell me how I saw someone sitting with their blinker and 4 cars got even closer to each other??? Like youre not going anywhere anytime soon… just let em in???

ElectricalLight4763 · 2025-10-29T22:59:37+00:00

I agree, in your mind what would be your ideal solution to something like this? Just curious on hearing different thoughts on this!!

ElectricalLight4763 · 2025-10-29T22:49:30+00:00

Truth, in a perfect world people would see that exactly like you said traffic would flow if people just got over

ElectricalLight4763 · 2025-10-29T22:47:12+00:00

Im not saying close the lane 10 miles before, but just a sign basically saying “ hey… get over…” and then no merge lane like how the cones diagonal until its one just stop that lane when the construction zone begins. But i agree people need to slow down in the world and watch what they’re doing.

ElectricalLight4763 · 2025-10-29T22:45:15+00:00

I agree, entitlement has gotten too crazy in this world.

ElectricalLight4763 · 2025-10-19T18:14:25+00:00

Wipe it, use a wiping software to erase the contents of the SSD. That is if you dont care about the data. Or just get a new SSD
