I wonder how many of those are bots or paid trolls

While not exactly a bouncer, I like Quassel

Well I use key-based login for security; obscurity just keeps the network congestion down

You can use any port for ssh. When I switched from 22 to 1337, brute force attempts at logging in stopped

Right? Big whoop, votes are public. Oh no, people might find out I’m an an-com from my voting patterns, instead of from my comments

I’ve found a couple plugs “upgraded” to 3-prong by jumping the load and ground together. That made for a fun firework show when my metal fan touched something metal. Even the landlord was impressed by that stupidity.

Ah, the good old reverse polarity bootleg ground.

Fun fact: RPBG is the one fault that those plug-in outlet testers can’t recognize

Edit: Wait, no, that would be hot bootleg ground, they should catch that. RPBG has the hot and neutral switched, and also a bootleg ground to the neutral that’s actually hot

That is madness. I love it

I’ve found SMB to more frequently have connection issues with my Linux clients, and often be slower. It’ll work, but if you’re mainly supporting Linux clients, might as well set up NFS if you like toying with things anyways

Google also presumably also gets soooooo much information for targeted ads from mining people’s email

rsync.net and learn to use Borg; they’re stupid cheap if you’re technically proficient enough to handle the Borg setup yourself. Like, charge by the gigabyte, but it’s 1.5¢/GB at the most expensive, and cheaper in bulk
