Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

According to the reviews on the App Store, it sounds like it sucks, though. I think I'll wait a couple more weeks.

what exactly is SSH?

It stands for Secure Shell, it lets you securely terminal into another computer if that computer is running a SSH server.
It can be amazingly useful. With SSH (and screen) I can do all sorts of things on my home network remotely. My wife finds it easier to have me reboot our DVR, on the rare occasions it has a problem, from work than to do it manually.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
It's like Telnet, except Telnet is insecure over networks, as the password gets transmitted unencrypted.

SSH is Secure Shell, a way of remotely connecting to systems, using encryption, and getting a command-line interface.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Okay, stupid question time. This is sort of technology, I guess.
We're about to sign up for digital cable for the first time. (Woot!) I'm assuming I need a digital receiver for each TV. Is that correct, or is there any way to get away with just one receiver?

It's for each TV. With cable, it's generally part of the cable box rather than a separate box in addition.
