The only legitimate commands for a non-root shell are sudo -i, exit, and echo "yee haw"

powertop is a cool tool that can analyze your machine and provide a list of suggested power optimizations

That's awful, I'm sorry :(

Is your ISP's infrastructure based on RFC 1149?

DNS is what you're looking for. To keep it simple and in one place (your adguard instance), you can add local dns entries under Filters > DNS Rewrites in the format below:

192.xxx.x.47 plex.yourdomain.xyz
192.xxx.x.53 snapdrop.yourdomain.xyz

Now that's a name I've not heard in a loooong time.

What is your root filesystem installed on - lvm, zfs, or bare disk partitions? Are you booting with grub (legacy/bios) or systemd-boot (uefi)?

It would be enormously easier to track Taylor Swift on a random flight in business class, because the moment people saw her on their random flight in business class it would turn into a social media frenzy.

Can't beat an X230 with an i5 for that use case, and you can still find them for around 100 bucks. Swap in an X220 keyboard, maybe a new battery, coreboot it, and in my opinion you've got the perfect laptop. I've daily driven that setup for the last 5 years and it's been great.

This is just an attack that attempts common username/password combinations on ssh, and the article even states that the worm is dime-a-dozen. Unless you have both password auth enabled and an available account with an easily guessable password (and if you have either you should change that), this is nothing to worry about, even with sshd available to the internet.

Sensationalist title.

Altruistic behavior in social creatures improves the fitness of the group, and has positive evolutionary pressure. Strong, cohesive groups pass on their genes, so actually pretty probable!

I'm with you there. It's all layer upon layer of vulnerability and false security, and then at the bottom of all of it lurks the Ken Thompson hack.

Still bad advice to tell people it's okay to use an explicitly vulnerable OS, I think.
