Me seeing a ridiculous crime show: "The person is literally running a Matrix-style graphic on their computer, nobody does that when doing serious work, these writers know nothing about computers"

Me IRL: "I'm port forwarding via ssh so I don't want the connection to die, I'll run cmatrix"

@cwebber SSH has a keepalive setting you can turn on.

see "ServerAliveInterval" setting.

@kaniini ... that sounds dramatically more practical than what I'm doing

@cwebber

I discovered it on holiday a few years ago to my grandparents farm which only had satellite.

The satellite modem would kill connections it saw as inactive to save data.

@kaniini I also use autossh, which is pretty nice
