Honestly doesn’t sound like a terrible idea on paper, but this spam outbreak could kill it before it gets off paper in a real way. Giving devs a bad taste will stay around a long while.
Edit: and of course the well-earned general attitude toward cryptocurrency as scammer playgrounds is automatically putting it way in the red too.
This is why I keep my ssh credentials on a flash drive and add it to ssh agent for time limited periods. Adds some insulation.
I have crowdsec on a bunch of servers. It’s great and I love that I’m feeding my data to the swarm.
I still reach for Perl when bash isn’t enough.
Is HDR just so amazing that it’s worth the hassle of using windows though? Games get shinier all the time, it’s not really exciting to me anymore. Give it a year and it’ll be in anyway, and people will be on to the next randomnhotness that they can’t possibly live without that somehow they were fine without the year previous.
Cool. Out of context, I was thinking it could be confused with Counterstrike 2.
Shouldn’t it be C:S2?
Oh, yay! I’m a helper \o/
I haven’t tried this, but maybe ssh -t "rm /var/cache/apt/archives/*deb" or something like to clear up some space would work.
One thing Debian introduced recently: apt upgrade --without-new-pkgs and they recommend that before a full dist-upgrade. I think it’s made a pretty big difference in the upgrade smoothness, eliminating some possibly-breaking package upgrades.
edit: I say recently but I mean new-to-me
Respect.
I’d expect they’d ‘adopt’ the tools and redistribute them under the GPL, if they did.
It would be cool if the GNU project sponsored a new updated ‘standard’ set of tools though.
Yeah, I’m not sure what the state of the art is these days. Maybe SPICE? I’ve used that to control VMs through tunneled SSH before.
oh geez. I’ve done Windows desktop support for many years, and that is so VERY not true. Even if you discount the fact that win95 software would be written for 32-bit architectures, they don’t account for UAC or file permissions, often fail to let you move installation files to better locations, and universally have shitty automated installers. Often they depend on hardware, eg dongles that no longer exist or CDROMs that have long since gone to hell.
Usually we’ll airgap a machine and run Windows XP 32-bit, which is generally the highest you can reliably get a win95 program working with. Sometimes a VM will work. Sometimes you can mount an ISO and fake a CDROM. It’s a challenge.
Linux is so much easier. You have more options for getting old stuff to work, even if you have to do a lightweight VM with an old OS, you can sandbox it better.
I would probably go with VNC or something else instead of Teamviewer for supporting Linux desktops remotely. Maybe set people up with a pointy-clicky script to do a reverse SSH tunnel to a central host, or do it over a VPN connection.
Many places support MacOS as well, so it would only be a third additional toolset. Plus, there’s a ton of overlap between toolchains, which reduces the overhead further. If you’re supporting enterprise MacOS, you’re probably using Foreman, JAMF, or Puppet with Active Directory.
Not to mention, a lot of places already have Linux servers, so the configuration management toolchains and expertise may already exist in a given organization, unless they’re absolutely pathologically mired in the Windows ecosystem. Which, granted, is a lot of places, but you’re making it sound far harder than it would be in a real world situation.
mosh, tmux, htop, vim
https://liquorix.net/ might give you a percentage or two in terms of responsiveness.
I’ve been using rspamd for a while. It may be extensible to do token based classification like you want but it may take some work.
