    Dude - I just need you to type in the admin password so I can install software or fix whatever is wrong that you don’tunderstand. We really don’t need to spoon.

    I wouldn’t actually mind if they actually vetted the software, but they just type in the password and install whatever I click on. I once changed the name of an installer for a new version of QGIS to “IT malware installation test” and they didn’t even notice.

      “IT malware installation test"

      rofl that is gorgeous.

      My experience with IT is watching them slowly do all the things I already tried, with long pauses to check their script. And a lot of confusion when they see none of Chrome, Firefox, or Edge has ever been booted since they pushed them.
