  • Everyone has been in that space, and to OP’s credit, some folks react in a much worse way.

    OP, you reacted in a way that may have looked odd from the outside but as long as this isn’t a weekly occurrence talking to your boss like the parent comment says should resolve things.

    Meanwhile, consider that some people respond to the same situation by yelling at the person who asked, or throwing things, or otherwise becoming violent. You got upset and removed yourself from the situation, which is the right thing to do.









  • Do you have any insight into getting Linux to play nice with the different components of fusion drives? I have an old iMac and Mac mini both with Fusion Drive and after installing fedora or Ubuntu the SSD is seen and mounts fine but while the HDD is seen it doesn’t mount at startup despite setting it to mount at startup. I’d like to use these machines for some archiving and media hosting but that’s difficult if I can’t reliably access the much higher capacity drives.

    Short answer: yes

    Longer answer: I would argue we’ve already had a few civil wars since the “War Between the States” in the 1860s. Reconstruction was arguably another civil war. The labor rights war of the early twentieth century included federal troops attacking organizing coal miners and federal agents along with private security forces attacking striking workers elsewhere. The violence of the civil rights movement (remember: the president had to call in the national guard to enforce integration) would also qualify as a civil war by some standards.

    Listen to the first limited series of the podcast It Could Happen Here for an idea of how a more involved civil war could start. The idea is that there would not be clear battle lines drawn up because our divide now is more urban vs rural, and people in rural areas have opportunities to attack infrastructure that would have significant impacts on urban areas.
