gollark: Potentially. I don't know.
gollark: Sort of?
gollark: Except on port 22 I run a "honeypot" which just sends `$ \n` whenever you enter a command and logs you in regardless of username/password.
gollark: That's not really possible, because SSH logs you into an actual user account usually.
gollark: You should `ssh osmarks@osmarks.tk` for purposes instead.
