They can respectfully choke on my massive GDPR

It’s more likely that my wife replaces my face if I touch that

I have one specific light fixture that kills led lamps with no mercy. They don’t fully die though, just decrease luminosity over time till they are useless. Tried with brand and non brand lamps. I think because it’s basically upside down glass cups with no vents at the top.

Can you check in a terminal? If you can see them in the terminal and not in the desktop you’re missing a font. If you can’t see them in the terminal then you’ve somehow mangled them. What was the OS and filesystems you copied from?

It has absolutely never happened before that one guy had to spend some time in a government facility. No. Not at all.

They do, and they are super cute. This thing, instead…

Comedy can be staged and still be funny. It’s acting.

They will suddenly stop supporting them after a few years

Try putting -vvv when you connect and see what’s happening. I can imagine this happening if you have multiple identities (private/public key pairs) on the client and you hit a max retry limit. Pub key is always tried first, and it should ask for password once all the local keys have been tried.

Which distro?

Thank you and all the others that took time to educate me on what is for me a “I know some of those words” subject

At the cost of sounding naive and stupid, wouldn’t it be possible to improve compilers to not spew out unsafe executables? Maybe as a compile time option so people have time to correct the source.

Boh, my average experience is “apt install foo”. Let’s not perpetuate myths.

What kind of prompt does your company 2FA provide? Using openconnect with networkmangler, I get a pop up to input my pin+totp. I haven’t done the script way in the last few years, but the connection script is plain shell and I was able to handle the 2FA from there too

For anyconnect: openconnect works perfectly, either as standalone script or via networkmangler.

Unfortunately falcon self updates. And it will not work properly if you don’t let it do it.

Also add “customer has rejected the maintenance window” to your list.

It was a struggle. You went to buy some device and you had to check it was not one of those windows-only ones. Modems were particularly bad, for example.

You had to read the how-tos and figure things out. Mailing lists and newsgroups were the only places to find some help.

You had to find the shop willing to honour warranty on the parts and not on the whole system, as they had no knowledge of Linux at all. But once you found them, you were a recurring customer so they were actually happy. You might even have ended up showing them memtest86!

You would still be able to configure the kernel and be able to actually know some of those names, compilation would take several hours but it was a learning experience.

You could interact with very helpful kernel developers and get fixes to test.

You could have been the laughing stock of your circles of friends, but within you, you knew who’d have had the last laugh.

And yes, Loki games had some titles working on Linux natively, Railroad Tycoon was one. Too bad they were ahead of the times and didn’t last much.

Do you mean SKB (or skbb, never figured out how they want to be abbreviated)?

Of course it’s KT.

Oh, come on, did you really have to pull emacs into this crossfire? Leave us weirdos alone!
