From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

In my defense, I just installed the machine. I was configuring it from home after hours.
I've configured PAM to not let me login remotely after hours, because I just know that someday I'll want to fix "just this tiny thing" and I'll break production because I'm too tired. I clearly need protection from myself, and this is one slice in Dr.Reasons's Swiss cheese model.
Don't let the people drag you down, this happens to all of us.
Harsh (to yourself), but fair
