@teto Cloning a drive with a GNU liveusb, GNU dd and GNU (g)parted is so trivial I'd just do it myself rather than having to wait for someone to do it for me, even if it wasn't my job.

@Suiseiseki then explain your question to me. In what world would somebody whos main job isnt maintaining laptop hardware do that job instead of a guy who got hired for that (these dudes get you new mice, monitors, fix your outlook etc.). Often programmers think those people dont need to exist because theyre retarded and have infinite time or smth (usually the unemployed)

@teto >then your boss says you can do this for everyone in the department now
If I get paid to carry out trivial, easy tasks with GNU software, why would I complain?
>Ill take the smoke break over that.
Of course you'd prefer to smoke proprietary bug poison and potentially get lung cancer instead of running GNU software.
>if I can get paid to not do anything I WILL NOT DO ANYTHING
I haven't worked in any jobs where I get paid not to do anything and obviously I'd prefer doing easy work that respects my freedom over hard, absolutely proprietary work.
