A highly trained person that wastes their time having to copy the same data across multiple systems, because:

Another great article that J. will be interested in. But the link is useless to him: he's not a member. I'll have to make him a lateral copy again.

Back in the 80s, I use to attend copy parties where we'd make copies of each others commodore 64 games and I was the cool kid for knowing how to crack DRM and having a cassette duplicator.
