    I hope the point is that it is as idiotic as the original. WTF did the original guy study the blade for, if not to protect other people from the barbarians ? Is he really so bad at the blade he can only protect himself ? Then I guess maybe he really did need to train all that time after all 😆

      nmap -sn x.x.0.0/24 I think, was a while. Pure coincidence how I know.

      Edit: no, it’s one less x because 16 is the middle.

    Why is everyone so sure that W10 support ending will have its users stampede towards Linux? I think most users don’t care about support and will happily run an outdated OS. They’ll probably switch to Apple if they are concerned with that. Am I being too pessimistic?

      It doesn’t help that win10 support ending doesn’t mean your device will immediately die. It means that you’ll probably face some kind of consequences at some point in the following year and years to come, which is too hand-wavey for most people.

    “…you have the audacity to come to me for help?

    Sure! Linux isn’t nearly as difficult to use as people think. There’s a learning curve since Linux does things differently than Windows, but you’d face that if you switched to Mac, too. Here’s a USB disk with [insert user-friendly distro here] loaded on it. If you can make your computer boot with it you have all the skills necessary to install Linux. You can test-drive it from the USB and if it’s just too different from what you’re used to, it won’t have made any changes. Have fun!”

        I can name 2 women right off the top of my head who helped me greatly early in my venture into FOSS.

        One is an Ubuntu MOTU on the forums, and the other helps organize the Ohio Linuxfest.

            That bit of context was missing from your comment. It probably would have savwd you a few downvotes if you had included it to begin with.

            You already had a few when I saw the comment.

            Yeah, the man pages, various forums and LUGs.

            I think it can be assumed that of a machine has sudo, it also has touch.
