  • I have a bash script that sets up my tmux session how I like it the first time I log in somewhere.
    grifferz@social.bitfolk.comG grifferz@social.bitfolk.com

    I have a bash script that sets up my tmux session how I like it the first time I log in somewhere. Some of those commends require to be run as root, so I use sudo to do that. But sudo has a per-tty cache of when you last typed the password, so every single tmux window that does a root-thing would require me to switch to it and type my password in.

    Can you think of a way around this, so I just type password once?

    NOTE: I can't configure sudo to not use per-tty cache

    This human,json thing… I don't get it.

    In the unlikely event that it gets even a tiny amount of traction surely all bot-made articles will publish humans.json and also vouch for each other?

    There are reasons why the PGP web of trust is not used except in very fringe communities that enforce it, right?

    I may have misunderstood.

  • What are we to make of the fact that there is only one candidate for next Debian Project Leader?

    What are we to make of the fact that there is only one candidate for next Debian Project Leader?

    Seems like no one else wanted the job, and although Sruthi has been a candidate before, they have never held the position before.

    It has always seemed like a fantastically hard job to me.

    She was recently re-homed when her elderly humans both had to go into a care home. They were all she knew, and they weren't able to take her out much so she hasn't really had chance to see much of the world. Everything new is incredibly exciting for her.

    Bouncer's greetings are extremely thorough - they can involve sniff-and-lick-based investigation from head to toe, while climbing on your lap, for upwards of an hour. But once she gets it out of her system she's generally happy to go to sleep for the rest of the day. 😀

  • sudo-rs changed default to showing asterisks for each key press of the password (instead of showing nothing as per classic sudo).
    grifferz@social.bitfolk.comG grifferz@social.bitfolk.com

    sudo-rs changed default to showing asterisks for each key press of the password (instead of showing nothing as per classic sudo). The first place this will be evident for a lot of people is with the forthcoming Ubuntu 26.04 release, which uses sudo-rs for sudo.

    I get where they are coming from but I must admit it was jarring to see asterisks there. But I have more than 30 years of experience of not seeing feedback at unix password prompts.

  • British Columbia intends to legislate this week to cancel DST change in October and remain DST forever going forward.

    British Columbia intends to legislate this week to cancel DST change in October and remain DST forever going forward. This ~7 months is far too short notice and so some people's electronic devices are sure to show the wrong time come the usual transition time in October.

    Additionally, some people will have their devices set to America/Los_Angeles instead of America/Vancouver, as these zones have been the same for a long time,. but not after October!
