This is taking a long time. I disabled SELinux and it has b…

This wasn't the only feature that was activated without much documentation. MaxSessions has a significant impact on any systems using 2FA (as the default allows bypassing it if you are phished).…

What is our next move when it shoots back?

Proposal: Mirror your tweets on a blog. Put your blog behind 2 or 3 different CDN's and configure them to "operate offline using cache". Have multiple people tweet your blog. Apolog…
