The Pub / Someone around here might want this job.... WfW Inclusive Cycling Advisor
« Last post by CrinklyLion on Today at 09:00:31 pm »A friend just posted a link to this job ad https://wheelsforwellbeing.org.uk/work-with-us-inclusive-cycling-advisor/
Inclusive Cycling Advisor, full time (job share considered), funded to Nov 26, based anywhere but with some travel to London, applications particularly welcomed from Disabled people. Thought ppl around here might find it of interest, and couldn't see it mentioned anywhere, based on a quick and not very thorough search....

Ctrl-Alt-Del / Re: Should I go to kali linux to practice hacking a windows hard drive
« Last post by Kim on Today at 08:56:02 pm »Yes. My general advice for choosing Linux distros is either:
a) The one you're already familiar with.
Unless either:
b) You're not familiar with any of them, then Ubuntu, because any problem you have will likely be easily googleable (some of which may even have solutions).
or:
c) Packages for the specific thing you want to do are conspicuously absent from from a) or b) because reasons.
Anyone with more complicated edge cases isn't likely to be asking the question.

« Last post by Kim on Today at 08:50:17 pm »Last year I contacted the local outdoor ed centre about volunteering to help on DoE and other activities.
They got back to me today, asking me to fill in a form.
It is a full employment application form.

It does, however, keep recommending books I already have in dead tree format.
