![]() Gentoo is a source-based Linux distribution that starts out as a live instance and requires you to then build everything you need from source. When this flavor of Linux is desired, there is only one release that comes to mind… Gentoo. This is for those who know Linux better than most and want a distribution built specificly to their needs. This is a category specific to those who want to show their prowess with the Linux operating system. Gentoo requires a higher level of Linux understanding, but you will be rewarded with exactly the distribution you want and nothing more. Best distribution for those with something to prove: Gentoo I’ve covered Elementary OS Loki previously, so you can read more in this article. Some might find the Elementary OS desktop to be too “Mac-like.” However, that metaphor has proved incredibly effective with end users and, of course, the Elementary take on the design isn’t nearly as limiting as is the OS X desktop…so feel free to tweak it to your liking. How is it possible that Elementary OS could de-throne Mint? Loki has not only proved itself to be one of the more beautiful Linux distributions, it is also rock solid and offers an unmatched user-friendliness and consistency across the desktop. Currently, Elementary OS stands at #6 (where Linux Mint continues its reign at the number one spot). That will be a fairly impressive feat, considering that Linux Mint consistently clobbers the competition on Distrowatch. I may be biased, but I’m certain that Elementary OS Loki will do the impossible and usurp Linux Mint from the coveted “best desktop distribution” for 2017. Best desktop distribution: Elementary OSĮlementary OS Loki is not only beautiful, it is also rock solid and offers unmatched user-friendliness and consistency. You can read more about LXLE in this article. I look for this to break the top 10 by mid 2017. The only caveat is the need to install a more modern (and up-to-date browser).Ĭurrently LXLE stands at #16 on Distrowatch. LXLE ships with many of the standard tools (such as LibreOffice and GIMP). LXLE is based on Ubuntu 16.04 (so it will enjoy long-term support) and makes use of the LXDE window manager, which brings with it an instant familiarity. You’ll find all the tools you need in a desktop Linux release that will feel right at home on older hardware (as well as newer machines). In other words, this is a small-sized distribution that won’t stop you from getting your work done. LXLE manages to combine a perfect blend of small footprint with large productivity. Without a doubt, I believe LXLE will become the lightweight distribution of choice in 2017. LXLE combines a perfect blend of small footprint with large productivity.

Parrot currently stands at #57 on Distrowatch, and I expect to see a significant leap on that list by the end of the year. All of these tools (and there are many) are coupled with an already rock-solid foundation to create a Linux distribution perfect for the security and network administrator You will also find tools for cryptography, cloud, anonymity, digital forensics, programming, and even productivity. ![]() This particular distribution is based on Debian and offers nearly every penetration testing tool you could possibly want. I believe the one distribution that will find a significant rise in popularity for the coming year will be Parrot Linux. For that, there are a host of Linux distributions ready to serve. Without a solid toolkit, that job becomes incredibly challenging. Parrot Linux is based on Debian and offers nearly every penetration testing tool you could possibly want.Īdministrators are tasked with so much on a daily basis. With that said, let’s get to the list! Best distro for sysadmins : Parrot Linux To that end, I’m going to list which distros will rise to the top of their respective heaps…according to task. Of course, we cannot just create a list of operating systems and say “these are the best,” not when so often Linux can be very task-oriented. As we are wont to do, looks at what might well be the best Linux distributions to be found from the ever-expanding crop of possibilities. The new year is upon us, and it’s time to look toward what the next 365 days have in store.

This feature is only available for US customers - and only on the higher-tier 360 with LifeLock plans. It even scans for your mother’s maiden name, which is commonly used as a form of verification. Most apps just scan email addresses for breaches, but Norton also scans for stolen credit card details, insurance details, bank account credentials, driving licenses, addresses, phone numbers, and more. I also really like Norton’s identity theft monitoring - it’s way better than similar features offered by other apps on this list. Its web protection doesn’t just keep you safe while browsing, but it also scans emails, messages, social media apps, and even calendar invites, preventing you from visiting sites and clicking on links that can put your data or device at risk. Norton has the best phishing protection on the market, detecting more malicious, fake, and risky sites than all other iOS apps.

This means that the program became executable, so just type. Now, checking again the file with ls -l should give the following result: -rwxr-xr-x 1 name name 4478124 lug 11 15:28 unetbootin-linux-585 (don't forget to use Tab to autocomplete the long unetbootin name :P). How you do it? Simply typing: chmod +x unetbootin-linux-585 Which means you have to add execution permissions on it. You should see something like -rw-r-r- 1 name name 4478124 lug 11 15:28 unetbootin-linux-585 To make sure the file is really here, and to check permissions. When you have the terminal shell, don't forget to run ls -l To make the file executable via terminal (and we are here supposing you downloaded that file using a browser like Firefox or Opera), you only have to go to the folder where the file resides, right-click on the folder and select "Open terminal here".

The machine used a matrix which connected the different sections of the synthesizer, instead of the traditional cables found in the Moog Modulars. The company, based in Newton Highlands (Massachusetts, USA), conceived electronic products, but also and above all else a large modular synthesizer, the ARP 2500. In 1969, he created ARP Instruments (originally called Tonus Inc.) with David Friend and Lewis G. This was a means for him to associate his two passions: electronic music and the piano. Pearlman, whose initials would form the name of ARP Instruments, became interested in instruments for electronic music as early as 1948, when he was a student at the Worcester Polytechnic Institute. Be creative, be funky, be a sound-traveler. Add filters to make your search easier, or get back to the traditional list of presets, by sound-designer or by type. Morph sounds on the MAP by clicking anywhere you like. Locate areas you like and pick a sound that will stimulate your creativity. Sound MAP: Explore the virtual synth's hundreds of sounds using Arturia revolutionary Sound MAP. If you are at the beginning of your learning curve, you will enjoy the hundreds of presets provided, or even if you are an experienced sound designer, the ARP 2600 V 2.0 virtual synth will allow you to immediately add new dimensions to your music. Additional effects are also provided, and, along with the original ARP sequencer, they form an exciting new virtual synthesizer. Four revolutionary tracking generators add sound design possibilities that have never been seen before. But that's not all: behind the speakers panels are hidden innovative features that take the initial design of the Arturia ARP 2600 to a new level. In addition to the original functions, MIDI control, polyphony, and the ability to create, save, and recall presets are all provided. With the Arturia ARP 2600 V 2.0, Arturia brings this powerful analog synthesizer back to life. If you wish to open the file in nano use below command: sudo EDITOR=nano visudo If you open the file with a text editor, a syntax error will result in losing the sudo access. This command checks the file after editing, and if there is a syntax error it will not save the changes. When making changes to the sudoers file always use visudo. Open the /etc/sudoers file with the visudo command: sudo visudo The files created inside this directory will be included in the sudoers file You can configure the user sudo access by modifying the sudoers file or by adding a configuration file to the /etc/sudoers.d directory. The sudoers file contains information that determines a user’s and group’s sudo privileges. ![]() However, in certain scenarios, such as when running automated scripts, there may be a need to configure the sudoers file to permit specific users to execute sudo commands without requiring a password input. This extra layer of security is the recommended approach for conferring sudo privileges upon users. ![]() In contrast, on RedHat-based distributions such as CentOS and Fedora, the sudo group is often named wheel.Įvery member of this group is required to input their password before executing a sudo command. On Debian, Ubuntu, and related distributions, individuals in the sudo group are endowed with sudo privileges. Typically, to grant a user sudo access, you must include them in the sudo group as specified in the sudoers file. If you frequently work on the command line, you'll find sudo to be a command you use regularly. The sudo command provides a means for trusted users to execute programs as another user, typically the root user. ![]() This, I believe is a good balance of ease of automation and security.Passwordless 'Sudo' : How to Run Sudo Command Without Password Let's talk about 'Sudo' Note that for simplicity, the playbook, imported task and passwords file all reside in the same directory. # Add a directory inside the root user's home for proof of concept # Point to the passwords file relative to where the playbook file resides Then import this task into any playbooks that require escalated privileges: - name: Playbook Name Save to a file separate from any playbooks, as this can be imported to all playbooks. Then create a task partial to import the sudo passwords as the ansible_become_pass fact. ~/my-ansible-project $ ln -s /path/to/vault/sudo_passwords.yamlīe sure to keep this file out of version control However, I just symlink, since my encrypted volume is only open when I need to do work. # Decrypt when you're using itĪnsible-vault decrypt sudo_passwords.yamlĪnsible-vault encrypt sudo_passwords.yamlįor this part, you will need the encryption password. You could also keep this file in the root of the ansible project itself, and use ansible-vault to encrypt/decrypt in place. I keep the raw secrets file as a plaintext file in an encrypted volume, then add a symlink to a file in the root of your ansible project. ![]() There are options where you can keep this file, but here is my strategy. You'd think that this would make automation difficult, having to enter a password each time, but this is where the ansible_become_pass host variable comes in useful.Ĭreate a yaml file somewhere and create a dictionary of hosts to sudo passwords: sudo_passwords: If a bad actor gains access to one of your servers and it's possible to sudo without a password, then they can also sudo su and become the root user.Īlways have a user password that is required to run escalated privileges ![]() The Group column does not appear in the filter, but its underlying column - Country - always appears.After clicking Include Hidden Columns, the Sport column is available in the filter.The Sport column is not available in the filter by default as hidden columns are excluded. ![]() The Age column is not available in the filter as filter = false.The different properties that can be set for each column are explained in the sections below, and demonstrated in the following example: The type of the filter options displayed is based on the Cell Data Type of the column.

Since climbing gear can, quite literally, save your life, you don’t want to be messing around with sub-par gear.īut, with so many different options to choose from in the world of climbing gear, how can you ever decide on just one piece of gear? The sheer number of choices you need to make when building a rack or choosing a new rope is enough to make anyone’s head spin. Anyone who’s spent time out on the rock will tell you that most climbing disciplines are gear-intensive enterprises, so there’s no denying that you’ll need to spend some time, money, and energy to get the gear you need.Įspecially when it comes to a pursuit like climbing, however, you want to be certain that you’re getting the right gear. If you haven’t gone through a belaying training course, we highly recommend it.Whether you’re a seasoned trad climber or a new pebble wrestler, at some point, you’ll have to buy some new gear. Your ATC device is set up! You still need to make sure to follow proper belaying techniques for the safety of the climber.The brake rope is on the bottom and should face away from the climber. The climbing rope is the top one, and is attached to the anchor.Attach the carabineer to your climbing harness’s belay loop.Grab a locking carabineer and use it to grab both the plastic loop and the rope loop.Many ATC devices have a little graphic showing where the rope ends should go. ![]() You’ll want the rope loop and the plastic loop that is attached to the device on the same side. Feed this loop through one of the sides of the ATC device.Make a small loop from the belay side of the rope.Using an ATC device for belaying is pretty simple, but it’s critical that it’s done right to ensure the safety of the climber!

It was, in fact, this guy who suggested the name Crystal, even though Luke later changed it to Krystal as it felt more aligned with his character. They also challenged each other at a lip-sync of You Don’t Own Me by Dusty Springfield, following which, Krystal was proclaimed the winner.Īccording to Luke, he decided to choose the name Krystal Versace when he was 19 while discussing it with a guy. In the last challenge, these three drag queens were given the task to write, record, and perform their own remix of ‘Hey Sis, It’s Christmas’. ![]() Known by the drag name of Krystal Versace, he managed to reach the final episode together with Ella Vaday and Kitty Scott-Claus. In fact, he won the first two main challenges! One of these consisted of a top-two lip sync against Victoria Scone, another participant in the show. Luke took part in the third season of RuPaul’s Drag Race in the UK and distinguished himself from the very first episode. He performed when he was only 19 years old and proceeded to be crowned the UK’s Next Dragqueen Superstar, becoming the youngest ever Rupaul’s drag queen winner.
