There is an unintended benefit to putting an obstacle between people who don’t know how to use the terminal and pasting code into it.

It is very important when handling hot peppers to wear gloves or wash you hands thoroughly.

You need to use a cloth and soap to mechanically rub the oil off your skin.

It always confused me to think of going to hell on a road. ACDC notwithstanding. I always pictured a trap door. Like St. Peter had a button under his desk.

Western Chauvinism and Islamophobia have red-pilled so many promising minds into the intellectual sewer of bigotry.

The next time someone makes fun of shithole countries remind them that hundreds of 12yo are married in the US every year. And I guess their little bodies are ready for motherhood because many of them produce a baby in 4 or 6 mo after the wedding.

I am a Linux noob as far as the desktop goes. But I’m quite comfortable in the terminal because for years I’ve maintained a home server running Debian. After I install the OS, I unplug the keyboard and monitor and the only way to talk to that box is through SSH.

I went back to Windows10 so I could dual-boot with Secure Boot turned off. My system will dual boot popOS or Debian without issue. Just make sure to install windows first.

This was my fighting game back in the day.

The joke is that at Microsoft, this kind of fix is the upstream.

I learned this week that Microsoft keeps a copy of your keys when you encrypt your hdd with their software. So you don’t need a black hat, all you need is a subpoena.

Cynicism coming in hot: A gay man is still a man and therefore has the advantage over any woman.

Somebody has been reading Steven Pinker.

Why would you not want to encrypt your files?

Bitlocker is only as secure as Microsoft is. If someone hacks your account, they’ve got your keys. And Micosoft stores that key in plain text.

Does this affect Windows 10 as well

IDK. 10 has bitlocker, so I’d check.

The control panel dialogue allows you to do this as well. Control Panel > system security > Bitlocker encryption. But it also has the superior option which is to turn it off.

I didn’t loose any data BTW. I had my M$ account info, and a backup besides.

The Windows terminal has some very good commands. ‘ssh username@server’ can log you right into a Linux machine!

The people who call it that just appreciate how easy it is to find.
