forces immediate disconnect in openssh

There should be some kind of heartbeat service by default that pings both ends of the connection every few seconds if there's no other activity going on (such as the user typing something in, or receiving text from the remote server) that terminates connections after a reasonable amount of time, for example 30 seconds. This should of course be overrideable for extremely high latency SSH connections such as satellite Internet uplinks.

I cannot easily put into words how frustrating it is to have an SSH session be terminated remotely (for example, by pulling the plug on the physical server, switching VPNs or deleting a cloud instance), yet the SSH session will simply hang for a while until it eventually realises the remote server is not responding. And the timeout starts counting from the moment you try to type anything into the terminal, so you have to forcefully close the terminal window if you don't want to wait.

@neauoire Who needs Twitter anyway, right? They need you more than you need them 😂

@neauoire Good luck to you. Social corps tend to not care too much about their users if they have less than half a million followers or so... I've had a good deal of terrible customer support experiences. Or more like non-existing support, not just bad.

@neauoire Pretty strange. Could it be someone phished you? Maybe your password was bruteforced?

Sometimes linking a phone number to an online account actually makes it more likely to get hijacked because of SIM-swapping.

@neauoire A few questions:
- Do you remember installing OAuth apps?
- Did you have 2FA enabled?
- Was your phone number one of those factors?
- Did you use a password manager?

@ataraxia937 Well, both approaches thwart different things. The first thwarts targeted advertising and profiling techniques. The second one avoids unwanted leaks and perhaps potential fires from a job that doesn't like what you tweet.

"Okay, here's the scenario. You are a crew member on a starship."
"Cool."
"Space travel is slow, you'll be stuck with your crewmates a long time."
"So we must get along."
"Yes. Communicate, listen, share limited resources."
"I can do that. What's the starship called?"
"Earth."

I really needed a logo for Kydara. This is what I came up with. Simple and sharp. What do you think?
