It is common practice to simply type in commands into a terminal and leave the terminal with never clearing the history. The problem is, if someone accesses your system, they can see everything you have done, which can be an issue.

To check your terminal history, Open a Terminal and type:
history

To clear the History, simply type:
history -c

Now you can check your history again by typing:
history

And you can see it is clear. Do this before you log off your computer every time for good measure

Here is a quick how-to on getting the daily short data. From this I look to see if the short volume has increased or decreased on a particular stock by leveraging a Power BI Dashboard that I had created. This guide is to show the simple command I run to initially scrape all the data

From a Linux box

Open a terminal

Type:
mkdir FINRA
cd FINRA
wget -r -np http://regsho.finra.org/regsho-Index.html

After it downloads the data I run
rm *.html

To remove the additional files that are not relevant, and then I move the data to where I need it

Operating System, Raspberry Pi, Raspbian

Flightaware…an amazing app, will give you a free subscription if you monitor the skies above your house. To setup a raspberry pi with this ability, perform the following

This guide assumes you have a Raspberry Pi, already setup with Raspbian. If you don’t have this, follow the guide below:
https://tacticalware.com/install-raspbian-os-on-raspberry-pi-4/

Once you are up and running with your Raspberry Pi, you will need to plug in your flightaware usb dongle which can be found on the bottom of this page

After that, run the following commands:
From your Raspberry Pi “Desktop”
Open a terminal
sudo bash
apt-get update
apt dist-upgrade
reboot

Your system will now reboot and come back up to your “Desktop”
Open a terminal
sudo bash
wget http://flightaware.com/adsb/piaware/files/packages/pool/piaware/p/piaware-support/piaware-repository_3.7.1_all.deb
dpkg -i piaware-repository_3.7.1.deb
apt-get update
apt-get install piaware
piaware-config allow-auto-updates yes
apt-get install dump1090-fa
reboot

Your system will now reboot and come back up to your “Desktop”
Open a terminal
sudo bash
ifconfig
get the ip address of your Pi
Open the Chromium web browser on your Raspberry Pi
Navigate to https://flightaware.com/adsb/piaware/claim

ACCESSING .ONION SITES WITHOUT TOR

While TOR is the recommended way to access the dark web, everyone and anyone can still visit without the same level of anonymity. I certainly would suggest using TOR always, however if you need to get to any .onion site from a computer without tor, you can do so by following this:

Open an internet browser (Edge, Firefox, Chrome, etc)
Type in the .onion site (ex. https://protonirockerxow.onion/rc/)
After the .onion portion of the address, add .dog (ex https://protonirockerxow.onion.dog/rc/)
Press Enter
