@nuintari@mastodon.bsd.cafe my one comes via a friend, who had a manager with the knowledge of a peanut but the need to show off their supreme powers all the time.
Short story really. My friend was pinging a host, the manager saw this, leaned over their shoulder, pointed at the TTL column and said "see that? That means it's encrypted"

@nuintari@mastodon.bsd.cafe oh damn, now I'm remembering more... I've had a manager that asked me to run the upgrade of 32-bit to 64-bit on a host operating system. Same manager, trying to save space on a MS Exchange server, switched on NTFS compression on both the mailbox database and transaction logs folders.
