Ah, that'd be after the switch then. @jerry@infosec.exchange is the admin for fedia (and a handful of other Fediverse services) if you're interested in troubleshooting.

Fedia.io was pretty broken before switching from kbin to mbin. Depending on when you created the account, it may have just been busted.

There are many ways to setups full disk encryption on Linux, but the most common all involve LUKS. Providing a password at mount (during boot, for a root partition or perhaps later for a "data" volume) is a but more secure and more frequently done, but you can also use things like smart cards (like a Yubikey) or a keyfile (basically a file as the password rather than typed in) to decrypt.

So, to actually answer your question, if you dont want to type passwords and are okay with the security implementations of storing the key with/near the system, putting a keyfile on removable storage that normally stays plugged in but can be removed to secure your disks is a common compromise. Here's an approachable article about it.

Oh, yeah. Language is just fun to observe because its easy to not notice.

I understood it to mean "the end of something", though I guess "repeating the game" might be more concrete. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ It's poetry.

"Starting a game over" is an interesting phrase. I know exactly what it means, but the words themselves are nonsense.

Here's a slide describing how depressions are represented, and here is a topographical map of a sinkhole showing the hashes.

That said, I had to look pretty hard for a map with those marks. Numbers are much more common.

Have you considered the possibility that you're replicants?
