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.

This is a server I was setting up. It's not doing anything useful at all at the moment, hence the lax work practice. The only reason I drove back to work is because it's needed tomorrow and I wanted to finish setting it up tonite.
Gotcha. I disagree with your methodology of not being careful about non-prod systems. You stated you forgot it was remote. What happens the next time you do that but forget it's prod or mix up terminals?
I assume you've never made any mistakes, ever. What an arrogant attitude.
I have made mistakes. I will make more mistakes in the future. I will not repeat disruptive freshmen mistakes like the one described here.
