Title basically. I’m about midlife crisis age (lol) and I’ve been on computers and technology since I could walk. What is with all these doctors who are barely older than me who can barely use the Internet, don’t know how to type or what an adblocker is? I don’t feel like I can trust a doctor who is ok with malware coming in because they doesn’t run a free adblock or even DNS block. I mean wth?

Earlier in my Design career the focus was on the software tool and design aspects. While I sat at a computer more than 8 hours a day for 20 years, I did not know much about the hardware or operating system. People assumed because ai knew the basics of file management, that I could fix computers.

Its different now, COVID meant changing activities/hobbies. So for a while I had 3 raspberrypis, a NAS and two home built computers, all installed with Linux. And tons of random PC parts LOL. Just in the midst of downsizing and selling pieces, because I collected too much hardware.
