I just realized I'm so old that

When I finger people over the internet, many of you weren't even born yet.

You probably don't even know which finger I'm referring to.

The unix finger utility of course.
As if younger people were totally ignorant! 🤨

@helenS Well that's kinda cool. There are a fair number of IT folks that struggle with command line. But damn it's so powerful once you master it. I've heard of SOLARIS but don't think I've ever done anything with it.

I never used vi enough to remember all the commands. I cheat and use nano as it's menu options are easier.

@WindTherapy Using nano is not a sin; it is a penance.

@helenS Well I'll admit, I'm not averse to working in the command line, but my job doesn't require a lot of it. So I'll stick to those things that are easy, and most importantly, help prevent myself...from myself. 🤣

(I used to work with a guy who wouldn't proof his work. Miss-spelling and punctuation errors were a thing with him. And for some reason he never seemed to understand how important that was as an IT professional. 🤦‍♂️)

Younger dolts have their own complicated ways to communicate their dissatisfaction 'What-ev!'
