Is there a touchscreen on the laptop by any chance?

I’m lucky in that my culture doesn’t give non plant based gifts (except stuff with milk in it, but I’m vegetarian not vegan), especially without asking, so I have never faced this issue.

ahh, the same approach I briefly went through for my dairy intolerance.

I work in software at a large corpo and I don’t normally have access to install anything that doesn’t come from the company’s internal repository of third party apps.

But there is a pre installed app on my laptop that i can use to get temporary admin access for my laptop in a few seconds. But while the temporary admin access is on, everything I do gets logged for accountability. I’ve used this temp admin before for setting some environment variables.

Most things I work on happen in a big cloud provider (AWS, GCP, Azure, etc.) and the role I have access to on our cloud provider account has very limited privileges (esp in prod). Adding a new privilege to the role needs to go through two rounds of peer review + one round of manager review.
