Today I learned about the Trivial File Transfer Protocol, and the matching tftp command. It’s like FTP, but much more simple, less secure, uses less memory, and is sometimes used in initial bootloading on low memory devices. It isn’t used over the internet, given the security concerns. This trivia brought to you by me mistyping something in the terminal and seeing this command in the autocomplete suggestions. 💽
