Hello all linux users! What password manager are you using? I would love to know. Bonus points if you comment how you sync your passwords between your devices.
Please retoot for extra reach! :)

I was the victim of an extremely clever card fraud/social engineering hack.
Well, partly a victim since I managed to stop it.
I was called by my bank, as they wanted to “verify some suspect transactions on my account”.
Then things got weird…

So finally I say, look, I need to call my bank directly. This all seems a bit odd.
And then, naturally (in retrospect), the guy hangs up.
I call my bank. They verify that it wasn’t them.

@nazokiyoubinbou @mcc yes I’ve been trying to find the info I need. I’ve actually hit this issue in the past but I think it may have been with Solaris. And this was only after I had done it many times the wrong way without an issue.
@mcc @whitequark an interesting thread (on the magic numbers etc) - but worth reminding everyone - you probably don’t want to type ‘reboot’ any more than ripping out the power cable …(oh my poor lost cached writes).

Chandrayaan 3 landing on the moon is getting close, with powered descent in progress.
Approximately 15 minutes to go.🤞
Been a while since anyone has stuck a Lunar landing, and so far it's looking like an excellent day for science and India.

This post is a great reminder that when writing technical documentation, your readers will just copy your examples verbatim a lot of the time.
You have to be thoughtful about things like sample code or example configurations because that’s actually going to be a lot of your customer’s production code and deployed configurations.
This applies outside of technical writing as well. People treat analogies and examples as just as canonical as the thing you’re teaching.
