  • As a general best practice, you should never directly login as root on any server, and those servers should be configured to not allow remote connections as the root user. You should always log in as a non-root user and only run commands as root using sudo or similar features offered by your desktop environment. You should be wary of even having an interactive root shell open; usually I would only do so on a VM console, when first setting up a system or debugging it.

    By doing this, you not only guard against other people compromising your system, but also against accidentally running commands as root that could damage your system. It’s always best to only run things with the minimum permissions they need, and then only grant them additional permissions on an as-needed basis.



  • Had a couple of decent runs so far! It’s definitely one of those expeditions where it’s better to do objectives out of order.

    When you use a signal booster or a waypoint, it’ll do a zoom out animation, and that’s a good time to watch for nearby water. The glowing crystals you mine from floating minerals and buried mineral formations also have a chance to drop crystal sulphide. Apparently you can also select armoured clams from the guide and get a fix on one, but I’ve never tried that one myself.

    Also, as soon as you get base building supplies, consider investing 10 salvaged technology on a Nutrition Processor. You can make critter pellets for just 1 carbon each and distract the hostile creatures.
