| If you haven't already, the best thing you can do to network is make a LinkedIn. Start asking people to connect with you. By using LinkedIn, you can collect professionals like pokemon! I've got so many people on LinkedIn, and if ever I have a question about how some industry thing works, I just message them to ask. :D Hope your networking goes as well as mine has, g/u/rl!
| >>942873 Is linkedin really just social media for professionals? I looked at it as if they're all robots honestly. Do they even reply to messages?
| >>942932
it's mostly robots now, but it used to be an actual resource before they tried to make it social media platform

| just google it

> Go find "2:" (where it says "enp0s3")
> Find inet

Mine says "dynamic" and the tutor guy on my campus told me that it meant that my PC uses a DHCP client.

| I need to find out how to find if my VM is using a DHCP client through the Linux Terminal.
I have already tried less var/lib/ etc.etc but all of the commands I have found online have not worked. My professor also does not want us to ask him questions for some reason? he just wants us to use google or someshit
Am I supposed to install something on linux to find this?
