“Now verify the repo isn’t compromised by trusting github and 900 npm dependencies” lmao
I was chuckling until the broke is the de facto standard then i lost it
If you haven’t ever browsed the Real Men Run as Root pages, do so. Oldies but goodies.
I understood everything, and I hate it.
…“We don’t just dump production applications in $HOME like crazy people”
Hey, I don’t dump them in home, I test them in home and never move them.
It’s been a long 2026 and I appreciate that this video actually made me laugh out loud.
I understood nothing and enjoyed the comedy, good stuff
Do you want a scene-by-scene explanation of every command shown?
Broken is the de facto standard
I feel attacked
That’s because you didn’t disable password for ssh login, nor wireguard vpn tunneling (no idea why openclaw was shilling tailscale), and you don’t have robust fail2ban rules.
And after having done that, you spend the next day automating these steps with cloud-init and Ansible
am I the agent?
I mean, it’s mostly reasonable.
Isn’t it?
Well you could have skipped a bunch of it if you make ssh only available via tailscale like he does
No. You see, it’s much easier doing the same thing in some cloud like aws and paying a small fortune for a slower server than on a vps.
I hate to tell you but a VPS is just a VM in the cloud. Unless you’re paying for bare metal, at which point you are paying an arm and a leg.
You’re technically correct, but missing my point.
Yes, it’s both ‘a cloud’ but a VPS is much cheaper and needs way less configuration compared to a so-called ‘cloud provider’ like AWS, Azure or Alphabet (or other companies starting with the letter A, I guess).
Love the Emergency by Paramore with the lyrics taken out in the background. I feel seen now.
