I set all my SSH private keys to privilege 745 with random numbers modified, maximum accessibility
My public key:
I normally just skip keygen
it’s such a hassle
besides, it means I can connect from anywhere
no one checks the ssh port on prod anyway
Your comment startled me even though I knew that it was a joke.
Are you my former boss?

Love,
/u/queerlilhayseedhehe you have the word ass in your private key, what are the odds
I insert swears into all my ssh keys so they get censored out by profanity filters. Good luck hacking me now, squares 😎🏍️🛹
You should put in some Disney lyrics so they issue a takedown request if it leaks.
The == had me wondering for too long
Haha I started trying to format the text so that it was technically a valid ed25519 key, then it became too much work for a silly joke so I settled for filtering/replacing all the invalid chars and slapping the
==padding at the end. Needs more AAAAAA strings to really sell it, I think, but I’m glad it turned out well enough to merit a second glance lol.Edit: I swapped all instances of
fuck|fucker|fuckingwithAs, I think it’s an improvement.It is very good - I will steal it.
Now reverse engineer a matching public key.
What do you mean “reverse engineer”? From
man ssh-keygen:-y This option will read a private OpenSSH format file and print an OpenSSH public key to stdout.Post the output when you run that on the key that was posted.
That’s not a valid key. OpenSSH keys are not arbitrary bytes, they contain at least the type of the certificate used and a hostname.
The fact that this is not a valid key does not mean you need to reverse engineer public keys. By design you can just get a public key with a private one.
Someone help I’m being hacked!
NO ONE WILL EVER KNOW
Shortest RSA key.

One developer in the whole channel who actually read the requirements smh.
first name: your ssh public key
last name: your ssh private key
I think not.
Bit of a mouthful to say, but I’ll go with it.
let’s push some files to your github
I’m pretty sure this name is to long form my vets office database.
Maybe just shorten to

Is it bad that this bothers me purely because the public key can be derived from the private key, so providing both is unnecessary?
I don’t geht it. Can you explain it with your key as an example?
Can you give me your private key so I can understand it better?
Not bad, I had the same thought.
Should be private ssh key and public ip address. public key can be derived if necessary and it does you no good to have a key to an unknown door
If you only know private key and not public key then isn’t it the same as only knowing public key? I thought those were interchangeable
You can derive the public key from the private key
How? Can you give me the commands I’ve seen it mentioned here a few times I want to try it.
ssh-keygen -y -f ~/.ssh/id_rsa
I thought that too but they are not. I discovered that recently learning and configuring wireguard.

You seem to be missing a “***”.
id_rsa id_rsa.pub
🤔 I do believe this is backwards, or you’re Japanese
I’m dislexic. My friends call me Dislexica
lol, rsa in 2026.
Other than size of the keys there’s nothing wrong with it. Still plenty secure (from classical attacks)

Obligatory *******
When you type your password all I see are stars.
I clicked on this post looking for this comment. Otherwise, I would have made it.
The ******* joke and its premise never fails to make me smile.
Please mark your territory by posting the hosts you have visited with your favorite cat name.
public: fake
private: gay
That’s a private / pubic key pair.
Public: Ssssssshhhh!
Private: Sssssshhhhhhhhhhhh!!!I like to update mine based on the season. Right now it’s Freddy: JSON
