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.
