The MyPillow guy was harassing him on Twitter so he said he'd start his own leftist pillow company.

It reads as if it started as a joke but then a couple of people have gotten him hyped that he should totally do this man, he could do it. And now hes gone all in on it despite clearly having zero idea what he's doing.

There's a few application control suites out there that can be used to elevate known "safe" actions or just give someone admin rights for like an hour, so everyone can reinstall <3rd party excel addin that breaks every alternate Tuesday and is needed to make the decade+ old HR software work> but still be locked out everything important.

e: or they just put you in the local admin group and forgot to take you out again. Click https://admintest.nothackingyou.splicer.ru/hack.jar to check

Yeah in the past when I've needed to install various things to test them out we bought a separate computer with an OEM windows install and a 4g plug in dongle to keep it off the network. It was probably possible to get admin rights etc on a work machine but insanely not worth the hassle. Those security policies are in place for a really good reason, because most of the people working for your company will gently caress up if you let them.

A surprising number of modern parenting guides recommend it. Turns out babies get manual dexterity faster than being able to vocalize coherently, so you get a leg up on communicating with your kid, so you know in advance when they gotta take a poo poo.

I haven't looked in a while but iirc there were some pretty credible studies that while babies can sign before they can talk, doing this delays verbal language in a significant way which is probably not a worthwhile trade-off

i mean i wouldn't consider 'being able to communicate in a legitimate language earlier than usual' a tradeoff, unless you think sign is a downgrade somehow
