The number of times I've posted my sudo password in a random slack channel instead of my terminal is not very high, but too damn high nonetheless

I have had a similar issue where I thought my computer went to sleep so I start typing my password while the monitor wakes up only to realize that it was only the screen that turned off and the computer was already unlocked so when I hit enter the password was sent into a slack thread or dm instead

Start your password with a forward slash :)

The trick is to use a plausible Slack message as your sudo password :)

“I quit!” Even includes a special character

"I, uhh, need your thoughts." should have fewer consequences AND be more secure.

Did you just type in your password on HN?
