I'm a senior with a good boss, I pretty much just ignore it. And fortunately, at least in my company, most people have done that (especially with the safety critical stuff). But management still has a way of making your life miserable when you stand your ground on this kind of thing, so it's also common to just tell them some bullshit and go about your job.

It depends on the way you like to learn.

If you like to play around with things and look things up as you need, go with a beginner-friendly distro (Mint, ElementaryOS, and Pop!OS are all good options). This gives a more immediate payoff (in that there are lots of fun things to experiment with right away), but you'll learn things kinda piecemeal.

If you like to learn by reading first, then starting with the absolute minimum and gradually working your way up, something like Arch might be great for you. It's a much slower process and has a much steeper learning curve, but if you have the discipline for it, you'll come out with a really solid understanding of how things work.

Most people start with something simple, and venture into the more intimidating waters when they feel comfortable. If you're not sure, try Mint and go from there. You can always wipe it and install Arch later (if you don't have anything important on this laptop, you can try lots of different ones without worrying about migrating or losing anything).

Any instance can simply say, "we're full". But it's up to the instances themselves--it wouldn't make sense to impose an arbitrary limit, because each instance has different capabilities.

But normalizing instance membership limiting seems sensible for a network with this model.

Brilliant, no notes.

It's okay, I'll still take it.

Plain curtain. Cut a hole about 3 inches in diameter, about 30 inches from the ground. Line the inside of the hole with duct tape.

You're gonna fit right in around here, Hulk.

You're damn right I'm okay with it.

I have a few tattoos. One of my latest is a simple design on my ring finger. I haven't been able to wear jewelry for years, including my wedding ring, so I got a design on my finger as a sort of placeholder. Making plans to eventually work on a floral sleeve.

Uh oh, the crosswalk is getting away!
