So much this.
This is why I always get annoyed at people who complain about looting, in that stuff can be replaced, but when it's violence against people (police brutality) it often has lasting, and unreversable impacrs to the person, and the authorities are perfectly fine with the later, but always complain about the former.

Just a reminder to add alt text to your images. Especially screen shots, you can just copy paste the text.
There's been a few posts that I haven't boosted because the author forgot to add alt text. And since we have an edit button even less excuses when someone posts alt text not to add it.

Guess it's time to write an introductory post. ( #introduction )
I've been involved w/ #FreeBSD for most of my life, and continue to use it, but not as active.
Istarted in security shortly after starting to work w/ FreeBSD when I realized that tcpdump (included) let you see the passwords people used to login (via telnet), and then quickly adopted ssh for everything.

In response to this post@ai6yr @tsturm Yeah, up until a few weeks ago, ours was still using gas, but this weekend they used an electric one and it was much nicer. Barely heard the blower.

In response to this post@tsturm
California has banned gas powered blowers and this makes a huge difference in noise. The battery/electric ones are much, much quieter and an improvement overall.
@ai6yr
@encthenet @tsturm Still lots of gas powered ones down here.
