Meanwhile, in #otw on Black Cobalt (dot) net
I submit this log for your enjoyment, despite the fact that it admits my still newbish status in the land of the penguins. Enjoy:
hmm
these are the people that should not own a VPS
How do I edit files on the server with no gui?
(#linode)
...
word
word.
how's that line go... su or sudo rm * -r or something?
haha
Did I get it right?
sudo rm * -r would work to delete everything in current directory owned by anyone
* Diziara so wants that to get stuffed. ;)
sudo rm -rf / <- would nuke the filesystem
Ooo, even better
* Diziara is coming along nicely though, isn't she?
come here, we'll get you stuffed
:o
<3
* spork <3
it really is beyond me though
People are special
what on earth are these people doing with VPSes if they can't operate a shell?
doesn't that seem like a waste of money?
Also, this conversation is going into my LJ.

* spork <3
Eh, if they're stupid enough to part with it, I'm in favor of the hosting company taking it.
true
but it's unmanaged & mostly unsupported
ie if there's nothing wrong on the backend you're not getting help from anybody unless there's bored people on the forums or #linode
at some point, wouldn't these idiots think to use google or buy a book?
weird.
eh, a fool and their money is soon parted.
