Is it possible or has it been done, can a Honeypot be created with bash aliases that would use a very common command someone would run if they were in your system but it aliases to some
Sort of command that would pull a download that is self executed to the host machine?
That's worded a bit fucky, if I need to elaborate, please chime in.

Fedora KDE defaults to console mode if I don't turn on the display during boot-up
Any way to force the desktop to load regardless? I know, typing startx
isn't hard, but I would like not to. Tnx!

New SSD installed in old legacy bios Laptop (Asus N76V) caused boot issues on main system?
Hello everyone :).
Trying to keep it short, cause after 2 days of troubleshooting I'm a bit tired and really confused on what happened here... Maybe it's my lack of understanding about Legacy BIOS/UEFI/EFI/Bootloader/GRUB... But that was really an odd "issue" that resolved by itself?
Intro
My 15 years old laptop, an Asus N76V, is still going strong, though It's purpose is not the same as a few years back. It's working great as a mini-server to host docker containers, DNS server, firewall, wireguard tunnel...

and /etc/vimrc
, then reinstalled vim. I jumped around a file a bit, went in and out of edit mode, and type a bunch of ~

I was holding my laptop while I had a vile open in vim, and I slipped, mashing a bunch of keys on the keyboard by mistake.
After doing this, I can't type the ~
character anymore. Anytime I try to type it, it jumps the text to the last line, putting the last line at the top of the editing screen so that's the only line of text showing.
I thought maybe I had set an option that would show up in ~/.vimrc
, but there's no ~/.vimrc
file. There is a /etc/vimrc
file, and a ~/.viminfo
file.
I've searched and had no luck finding out what I did to cause this behavior. I also tried looking through the vim ma
