A shitty laptop keyboard way too often (hp dv7) and, when I have space to get it set up, a Apple Extended Keyboard II with a ADB converter that I built. I'm currently looking at the Das Keyboard or the CODE keyboard.

I'm using Xubuntu 15.04 (going to upgrade to 15.10, but holding off for compat testing for a week or two). I've gone through a ton of distros and I've liked this one the best. I ran Arch awhile ago, got tired of things breaki

SSH is blocked on some corporate firewalls, they've said before that they've implemented HTTPS support to get around this.

Ha, they're going back to the way repo tab navigation used to work a long time ago, with the tabs on the top, like [1] and [2]. Arguably it's a nicer look with some UX benefits. [1] - https://camo.githubusercontent.co

Ha! An IRB-based interactive adventure is actually really, really cool and clever. It never fails to amaze me how much Rubyists abuse metaprogramming and langauge quirks. Somebody now shall goeth forth and implement Zork...

It is possible for sets of very few people to communicate in ways the NSA could never break. Examples: DH/RSA with ~2^14bit keypairs, OTP, etc. It's much harder on a large scale, but in the end, I think it's doable. The

The point of plausible deniability is that you have an entire fake partition, with operating system and innocuous data , which looks like it's the only one on the hard drive.
