    How often does incoherent proctoring via OnVue occur?

    You are probably correct - all of the proctors I had had a strong Indian accent.

    How often does incoherent proctoring via OnVue occur?

    Every exam I've taken with Pearson OnVUE involved the proctor threatening me at least 5 times during the exam in a very harsh manner. Sometimes it's been because they saw my lips move (I sometimes silently read questions to myself unconsciously), but most of the time it's because I've moved my...

    I see many of us using ifconfig vs ip a in Linux Command

    A quick addition to what Rick said: While the ip command is the modern, preferred, and generally cooler way to view and configure IP on Linux systems nowadays, it's equally important to know of ifconfig as it is the only way to view and configure IP on UNIX systems like BSD or macOS.

    From the Linux+ TTT - Tux/Windows background

    Nice background! I still prefer my Grand Theft Auto Richard Stallman FSF wallpaper though... :LOL:

    Linux+ XK0-005 TTT Series

    I'll be there! But won't be there 15 min early as usual. Instead, I'll join just before it starts because for the hour beforehand I'll be demonstrating Asahi Linux virtually at the KW Linux Users Group (https://kwlug.org/node/1288) ?

    Is Linux secure or insecure?

    No problem! Cengage may have omitted that Appendix because Microsoft has since dramatically simplified the steps to configure WSL following the original publication of the book, making that Appendix no longer relevant. Now, just running wsl --install from a command prompt in Win10/11 installs...

    Is Linux secure or insecure?

    OMG - how could I have forgotten OpenBSD?!? I should have known that :LOL:

    Is Linux secure or insecure?

    While it is arguably true that most - if not all - open source software is more secure than closed-source software via community contribution, security itself is never guaranteed and largely depends on how software and systems are implemented. Some Linux distributions are reasonably secure...

    Average Success Rate

    A realistic success rate should vary class-by-class based on the composition of the class as well. For example, a class primarily composed of students with no prior background and poor English proficiency should not be compared to a class primarily composed of students with prior background and...

    Fun video interview I did last week regarding Cybersecurity (with CompTIA plugs)

    I was asked by Dan (who owns a local Cybersecurity MSP called Rhyno Cybersecurity that employs our grads) if I'd be on his podcast. It was last minute (the podcast was the same day as the request), and completely unprepared and unscripted. May be worthwhile for students (my current students...

    Who's coming to the Partner Summit 2022 in Chicago? Room block closes on July 18th! Register Today!

    While the timing of the Summit is ideal (it's our break week at the college, and Chicago is an easy drive for me), sadly I won't be able to make it because it's also the week I've scheduled for migrating my staging/production platform used for over a dozen workflows at the University of Waterloo...

    CIN Instructor of the Year

    If there's fame, fortune, and a check involved, then yes - I'd be happy to! Otherwise, no. COVID-19 sounds too much like a Jira ticket code... ?

    CIN Instructor of the Year

    So I was the last person to win CIN Instructor of the Year? Maybe it's because my stage performance was too hard to beat ? :ROFLMAO:

    Open Source alternatives to popular software

    I always get asked this question in a Linux course (sometimes in others as well), and this site does a pretty good job of answering it. It covers many popular SaaS solutions as well. https://www.opensourcealternative.to/

    What are you using to share files with students?

    We use MS Teams for class-related stuff because all staff and students have college-provided M365 accounts. So, we naturally use that for file sharing since each Team sets up file sharing via SharePoint, and it's unlimited. A nice bonus is that each student has a 1TB OneDrive, and can instead...

    Wireless Exploitation Framework (WEF)

    This is a tool that was recently released - I've been playing with it today and it's quite well done and fully-featured. As a result, it'd be a great addition to a Pentest+ (or Security+/CySA+/CASP+) course. https://github.com/D3Ext/WEF
