You wish.
I’m not a hacker, but when I use the terminal, etc. I feel like one and know I look like one to the vast majority of people, and we all need our cool feeling moments.
Hey, at least he’s not a cracker.
Way back in the 1000’s, I got detention for ctrl-breaking out of an autoexec.bat and looking around the hard drive. I also lost an internship.
Man isn’t that fun, getting punished by educators for outsmarting them?
“Kick em’ right in the future! That’ll teach ya ta have an inquiring mind around HERE!”
Yeah, this never happened…
Yes it has, lots of times for me personally, so I’m sure it’s common.
He is thale hacker!
Until this day, always when i open a terminal on my colleague’s Mac and fix his problem with mostly [ up,up,up -> Enter ] he keeps looking at me like i just took a dump in front of his house, for the rest of the day.
Edit: we have worked together for 20 years by now

[ up,up,up -> Enter ]
So if I understand this right, his terminal history consists entirely of commands you’ve run to fix his recurring problems.
Nice profile picture!
Could it be that you took a dump in front of his house before fixing his problem?
I have the opposite experience where I opened a terminal on a colleague’s Mac and fixed his env variables and he was mostly impressed.
I use Linux. Using apt to update everything looks so much cooler than windows updates. It’s also a lot more informative when there’s issues.
The fact that it makes me look like a Hollywood hacker, at least when I’ve been lazy and not updated for a while, is just a nice bonus.
Well we know you can spell update so you’re already better than most windows users.
sudo apt install hollywoodÜ
sudo apt install cmatrix. 😎

This is how your comment appears to me:

Fun, but I like being able to explain what I’m doing. Or at least start, before eyes glaze over and I come to a halt, wondering if I’m actually a lot deeper down this rabbit hole than I thought…

TBF, anyone who can open Terminal can probably hack the average Facebook Grandma.
“Can I have your bank details please?”
“Sure”
I sorta miss this but I am far enough that I tend to only deal with IT people so im sorta insulated from this.
“Alright then, I am a hacker.”
Not a hacker. Just a very naughty boy. Now go away.
