I'm just going to be vulnerable for a minute here. I met the first person in real life who had similar server-y linux-y obsessions to me and we'd send eBay links of systems to drool over to eachother. They ended up being a terrible person but hid it from me pretty well until they couldn't anymore and now I no longer have someone to chat with about those things.

So um, I guess I'm open for applications for the position of "nerdy friend who I nerd too hard with about network infrastructure and Linux packages" now

It was just access to a VPS we had a couple of minor things running on so nothing too big, but still its a very real action that says "this is over" so hitting Ctrl+O then Ctrl+X was pretty heavy

You don’t use vim? I do not see how anyone could be friends with you.

jk, of course.

Yeah, :wq! Hits a lot harder than a Ctrl+x and Ctrl+o

I still use vim to this day. Mainly cause I can't figure out how to quit...
