@nixCraft The real question is why wasn't Debian considered an "enterprise" distro all along?

@nixCraft You get extra points if you typed that using an Android keyboard with autocorrect still switched on.

@nixCraft i love using ffmpeg to convert a game audio track with 4 mono channels to a stereo channel track dropping the last 2 channels

You can press up-arrow or down-arrow to walk through a list of previous commands in most modern shells like bash, tcsh, fish, zsh and others in #Linux / #FreeBSD / #macOS/ #Unix. Another option is to hit CTRL+R & type the command to recall. See:
help history
man bash
man fish
man zsh

@nixCraft all are white, all are able-bodied, there is at best one female person. This picture is part if the problem for sure.

I'm not surprised at all. Brute Fail: Watch brute force SSH attacks fail in real time brute.fail/. Hence, I suggest reading my OpenSSH best security practices guide for #Linux, #FreeBSD, and #Unix cyberciti.biz/tips/linux-unix- to secure your server against these bots. #infosec #security #sysadmin

I remember seeing Scott and other random names in my alerts send by Fail2Ban and I always wondered: who were these people that they appear in those brute force lists?

Anyone remembering Siri recommending Nokia when asked what the best mobile phone is?

@nixCraft because the software and models won't improve over time right

Channeling the Enterprise Security Architect vibe...

Don't you know that somebody might rEplAcE filEs oR aDd a kEy?? Are you committed to security at all??

@nixCraft public keys managed with an initialization Ansible role.

I've tried ssh certs, but it's more annoying to manage for my setup so far

Don't you have a pointless meeting to schedule?

@nixCraft if you start the meeting by blasting all the useless people with a phaser at max output then the meeting will end up with everybody in agreement and it will be pretty productive.

@nixCraft

A meeting whose only agenda item is to schedule future meetings? Why sure! :eyeroll:

@nixCraft
Had I decided to be a manager I probably would have a pointless meeting to schedule.

Fortunately, having developed a disdain for pointless meetings, I chose a different career path.

That's neat :-) The TikZ package is quite powerful. I think I have been using \LaTeX for quite a few decades. I used to typeset The Journal of the Royal Society of NSW in it for many years. Was a lot more pleasant than using MS Word :-) I was chuffed when I made a LaTeX package for cave maps. It's my only one though: ctan.org/pkg/scalebar?lang=en
