Can an average person who works a full time job become capable enough to rival a secret agent like James Bond or John Wick on their own ?

Custom shell prompt tips and tricks?

Recently I stumbled over an article, about how to customize your shell prompt. What really surprised me, is that it lacked one of the most basic tips I learned nearly 20 years back: Always display a timestamp in the prompt, to be able to check how long a process is running or when it ended.

How does the experience stack up, do you prefer something like chimera or bazzite? Just wondering if I’m missing out by...

Apps Requesting Permissions

So I installed this app that wants permissions to my photos and/or files so I can upload a picture. Totally normal. I want to know if it’s possible to specify that these permissions are only granted for a specific directory/folder, rather than the whole device.

My PC is hacked

I just received a call from an indian microsoft technician. He informed me that my PC is sending a ton of error messages to microsoft. Most likely it has been hacked, and he would help me by remoting in and fixing the problem for me. I just wonder… Is it my PopOs or my Manjaro PC that sends all this info to microsoft?
