accurate. BTW, i got a copy of red hat linux from the library back in '98 or so and tried to install it on my 386 but 8MB of RAM was too little by half. Windows 95 ran on it tho!

so obviously i use arch nowadays, but i've been feeling a little BSD-curious. it seems like linux might get overrun with normies soon and i need a backup plan

not at all. are you expected to remember it? would it even be possible to memorize for most? not even close to the same thing, passwords have very low entropy which causes all their problems

there's literally zero technical reason that a user couldn't reset a private key the same as a password. after all, you just pointed out they are almost the same.

edit: if you'd like to see an example create SSH keys for your GitHub account and then reset them

it was bound to happen bc the NRA has advocated for a lot of gun control measures which are not very popular with the folks they were supposed to represent.
