How do I password lock a hard drive? Or a PC as a whole? How do I add multiple passwords in different languages? I'm new to Opsec and want some tips, bonus points if it's targeted to Linux Mint.
The linux community makes me fucking leak. I needed to install a telnet server on one of the company servers this morning (it needed to be telnet because they said so) and I have never done that before. Looked it up online and was met with literally nothing except the occasional blogpost from 10 years ago that didn't work. As a last ditch effort, I joined the distribution's community IRC server and asked. I was met with 100 troons all fighting for the opportunity to tell me "you shouldn't use telnet, its Old and Insecure and I'm very smart and You should use ssh and you're Dumb for using telnet :3". Then I just opened a fucking book and figured it out which I should've done from the start.
I accidentally raped my system by messing with /etc/default/grub so the default resolution was raped to niggerhell and back. I tried to fix it but I couldn't use vim or nano, so I unironically actually straight up had to use ed, the standard text editor. I just went in and wrote 9s/[faulty part]//p then after checking it was ok, wq, and it was done. I though it was there just because the POSIX NIGGERS were too lazy to remove it but it actually saved my system Geg, who would have thought…
A couple of weeks ago, my USB drive only for soyjaks and for holding my soyfolder was covered in LAYERS of DUCT TAPE. I did this to obfuscate it being a USB stick and whenever I wanted to plug it in to access its contents I would take a serated steak knife and cut through the LAYERS and LAYERS of duct tape. I used to do that until a soyteen told me I could encrypt my USB drive. I knew it was an option but I was too lazy to research it. < Is dis giga? What are some stupid /tech/ things you used to do?
all this because they vibecoded optional experimental support for paint.net on wine, a feat that hasn't been done for almost a decade anti-ai psychosis is genuinely more harmful than ai psychosis
