@larsbrinkhoff This reminds me of an old sysadmin joke - you can tell a sysadmin by how many syllables it takes for them to pronounce "coax".
@poindexter @larsbrinkhoff or a chemist vs workplace organiser from how they say "unionised"...
@larsbrinkhoff my childhood memory is VT-terminals, IBM mainframes and reel tapes (dad was working at the computing center of the local university) :-)

@vaporeon_ Hugs and blinking lights soothes the soul.
