It’s distracting.

Is it possible that you have not been driving for the last 35 years seeing a solid block of flashing light, so your brain is not yet hardwired to recognise that and only that?

I find them distracting. There are useful innovations, and there are pointless gimmicks.

Good.

Next please go after the animated indicator lights that take way too much time to realise the car in front of you is turning and not playing snake. Fuck you, Audi, and all the others tha copied this absolute bullshit of an idea.

They can respectfully choke on my massive GDPR

It’s more likely that my wife replaces my face if I touch that

I have one specific light fixture that kills led lamps with no mercy. They don’t fully die though, just decrease luminosity over time till they are useless. Tried with brand and non brand lamps. I think because it’s basically upside down glass cups with no vents at the top.

Can you check in a terminal? If you can see them in the terminal and not in the desktop you’re missing a font. If you can’t see them in the terminal then you’ve somehow mangled them. What was the OS and filesystems you copied from?

It has absolutely never happened before that one guy had to spend some time in a government facility. No. Not at all.

Try putting -vvv when you connect and see what’s happening. I can imagine this happening if you have multiple identities (private/public key pairs) on the client and you hit a max retry limit. Pub key is always tried first, and it should ask for password once all the local keys have been tried.

Mr Krab there surely doesn’t have the same customers I have, if he’s so relaxed

Which distro?

Thank you and all the others that took time to educate me on what is for me a “I know some of those words” subject

At the cost of sounding naive and stupid, wouldn’t it be possible to improve compilers to not spew out unsafe executables? Maybe as a compile time option so people have time to correct the source.

Like the S in IoT stands for security. Got it.

Boh, my average experience is “apt install foo”. Let’s not perpetuate myths.

What kind of prompt does your company 2FA provide? Using openconnect with networkmangler, I get a pop up to input my pin+totp. I haven’t done the script way in the last few years, but the connection script is plain shell and I was able to handle the 2FA from there too

For anyconnect: openconnect works perfectly, either as standalone script or via networkmangler.
