It’s supposed to be outside the scale, like a fuel gauge before you start the car. Which I agree is not great, but I can see what they were going for.

Yeah, but not everyone has someone to help them, and many people will prefer Windows for the simple reason that it doesn’t give them problems they need to seek help about, even if the problems have good solutions available.

I don’t use Gnome, but I assume that in the Help menu of that window you will find contact information for the project. Submit a serious version of your image politely explaining the issues, and maybe if you feel like it a better designed alternative.

I imagine the author, who is probably a single person, would appreciate the feedback.

Yeah, but for non-technical people this is an insurmountable barrier. My aunt isn’t “trying a virtual machine”.

My guess would be that the password checking feature has a minimum character limit of 4 characters, to avoid false positives on things that aren’t actually passwords.

Did you reply to the correct comment?

Your answer to “how to harden SSH?” is “harden SSH”?

I know your two other points gave concrete suggestions, but it’s pretty funny you suggested to “harden sshd” when that is what OP is asking how to do.

Because “crypto bros” care about making money, not any ideology, except in a performative sense. If you pitched the fediverse to the original researchers inventing cryptocurrency and the early adopters, they would likely be receptive. But these are no longer associated with the current crypto crowd.

It would actually be funnier to leave them as a gift as if Trump can’t afford them.

What, is he going to go into hiding and lay low?

Yeah, I was thinking of a new repo with no existing code.

In your case you’d want to uncheck the creation of a readme so the hosted repo is empty and can be pushed to without having to overwrite (force) anything.

You don’t if you just clone the repo you created.

Exactly what I thought of

Sell it to who? Is this a game of hot potato?

I have to say, it would be extremely funny if they changed the constitution and then Trump lost to Obama

And that’s a much better answer!

“Because it would require changes” doesn’t answer OPs question. They want to know why wasn’t it done like this in the first place, and why aren’t we making the changes to make it happen now. Of course changing things would require changes.

It’s like answering a “why are stop lights red?” question with “It wouldn’t work because stop lights factories uses red bulbs and laws require them to be red”.

It’s a thought experiment. Of course such a stick wouldn’t exist. OP’s question is what laws of physics prevent this theoretical scenario from working.

I mean, wouldn’t the game not happening be such a big deal that even people who aren’t normally interested would tune in just to see all the drama? I never watched it, but if such a protest happened I would likely be interested to see that.

I see nothing wrong with using it if you already have it.
