Command Line Stuff

That's right, stuff. Good stuff, mainly.

GPG stuff

Like many nerds, I'm a raging paranoid, especially when I read anything about the NSA, the Supreme Court telling the FBI sure, you can hack anybody's computer, without a warrant. No problem, have at it. So I use a Yubikey, which is a hardware device that you can store your GPG keys on. This is desirable, because you don't have to actually store your GPG keys on your computer. But as with anything (especially gpg), there's a learning curve. The following are a couple of tips that have helped me.

Import GPG keys from a Yubikey on a fresh install

This is basically a three step process:

Import your public key

gpg --import < publickey.txt

Generate stubs

gpg --card-status

and finally, if you are using your Yubikey for ssh authentication, create new .gpg-agent-info

gpg-agent --daemon --enable-ssh-support --write-env-file ~/.gpg-agent-info

Bounce gpg-agent on OS X

Every now and then, when my laptop wakes from suspend, there is still a gpg session cached, and it conflicts with the actual card. This requires simply bouncing the service.

pgrep scdaemon
pgrep gpg-agent
kill -9 both processes
sudo launchctl unload /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.apple.ifdreader.plist

After doing so, just use gpg for whatever you normally do, and you'll be prompted for your pin, as you normally would.

For more info on setting up and using GPG keys on a Yubikey, I would strongly recommend the following site. It walks you through the setup from beginning to end:
