    So now when I spin up a VM at my sysadmin job I have to tell the server I’m an adult? Does anyone actually know what the fuck we are doing here? What an absolute clown show.

      This is what happens when boomers never die and stay in office for a lifetime. They don’t understand technology but are allowed to make the laws that govern their use.

        Nha boomers are not the cause for this shit. Smart ass marketeers and tech bro pushing for more precise target identification and thus more reach for them are to blame. And those I stumble upon are definitely on the younger side.

      Obviously not, no.

      You’re a sysadmin… you should know this.

      You’re the person who has to actually think through the results of other people’s decisions.

      That’s your job, lol.

      Other people get paid to make decisions, not think about them.

        And ofc they don’t suffer any consequences for making bad decisions.
