| Cheesehead | Ah, perhaps I'm finally getting the hang og irssi settings and screen usage. | 17:31 |
| Cheesehead | og not. Hasn't helped my spellng. | 17:32 |
| h00k | Cheesehead: I saw you....logged in as root earlier! | 17:33 |
| Cheesehead | Yup. | 17:33 |
| Cheesehead | Did I learn for that experience? | 17:33 |
| Cheesehead | /for/from | 17:34 |
| h00k | Hah | 17:34 |
| Cheesehead | Perhaps I will do *everything* as root for a day or two. With my fumbly fingers, what could go wrong? | 17:34 |
| h00k | O.O good idea. | 17:35 |
| h00k | it's okay, you have backups... | 17:35 |
| h00k | yes? | 17:35 |
| Cheesehead | What's a backup? | 17:35 |
| * Cheesehead washes his car AS ROOT muah ha ha ha | 17:39 | |
| * Cheesehead pyas the eclectric bill AS ROOT muah ha ha ha | 17:44 | |
| Cheesehead | Dang. That typo just cost me $40. | 17:44 |
| * Cheesehead goes back to being an ordinary user. | 17:44 | |
| Cheesehead | Hooray! Just tried detaching irssi screen, logout of ssh session, log back in, re-attach irssi screen. | 17:46 |
| Cheesehead | At last, my announced presence in this channel is irrelevant! | 17:47 |
| Cheesehead | Well, slightly more irrelevant. | 17:47 |

| mikeputnam | "So of course I'm sporting a headache that measures 'Kurt Cobain' on the pain scale and instead of easing it with some hair of the dog I have to sit through the inane drivel of a man who knows as much about linux as Princess Grace did about mountain driving..." | 20:51 |
| mikeputnam | "It seems you were right after all" | 20:55 |
| mikeputnam | "What do you mean?" | 20:55 |
| mikeputnam | "About a silly typing error causing problems" | 20:55 |
| mikeputnam | "How" | 20:55 |
| mikeputnam | "Well I logged in as root earlier and I was just going to try that ps thing you mentioned, but instead I accidentally typed in 'nohup cd /; rm -rf * > /dev/null 2>&1 &' " | 20:55 |
| * Cheesehead hates when he types that by accident | 20:57 | |
| mikeputnam | especially with that dangling carrot of nohup | 20:58 |
| Cheesehead | I figured out that I *can* do most things as root. Just not on the computer. | 20:58 |
